Agios Merkourios — Restaurant in Municipality of Acharnes

This traditional taverna was not a disappointment. As usual in Greece you have to know or hear about these places that are off the beaten track but are hidden gems. This gem has a view on the mountains and on the city below and you would need your own sort of transportation to get there. They don't take reservations so if you want a table at the end of the terrace with the best view it's better to get there a little earlier,as we did, because this place fills up quick as all good places do! We were a group of 6 of hearty eaters and "bons vivants" as we say in French so in the end we footed a bill for 40€ per personne but with the good food, good service, the view and good friends it was...

More reputation than reality of the experience, and the service is to blame.

I wanted to visit this place for a while now because of its reputation and outstanding location, where it did not disappoint in that aspect, neither with the food, both were outstanding.

But comes the service: Wrong attitude, wrong order (without correcting it, nor apologizing for it), wrong placement of items on the table, forcefully at the edge of the table where we had to reach out to grab each item. Not even the basic question of whose item is it. For such a place, that was a surprise.

Fantastic place, but the service ruined the overall experience. The management needs to...

We visited Parnitha for the day on our motorbike and decided to stop at this delightful Greek tavern for lunch. It was a fantastic decision!

While they don’t take reservations, which may require some patience during busy times, we only waited about 10-15 minutes, and it was well worth it.

The staff were incredibly attentive and clearly dedicated to providing excellent service. As for the food, it was absolutely amazing—truly a highlight of our trip!

In terms of prices, we found them very reasonable, especially given the location and the exceptional quality of the meals.

I highly recommend visiting this wonderful tavern for an unforgettable...
