VIBO Bistrot | Glyfada — Restaurant in Municipality of Glyfada

Vibo? More like the Vib(e was) O(ff)! Service feels nonexistent with 30 minutes of wait to receive a cup of coffee. Our server avoided eye contact and walked by us several times as we tried asking about our order.

After 30 minutes of finally getting served, the complementary sweets were not brought to our table. Curiously, the card payment post machine also wouldn’t work when we asked for the tab. Considering the way we were barely acknowledged as customers, this felt like we were being tricked into paying in cash.

The place is cool looks like a wine bar but they have a full kitchen underground that pumps out food for about 80 seats which is quite amazing. I will definitely come back when I’m...

We visited this café on a Saturday morning with my family, expecting a nice experience. However, it became clear that the staff prioritized holding tables for phone reservations rather than accommodating waiting customers. While we decided to wait, they seated people they obviously knew, despite telling us that the tables were reserved for brunch – only for those same people to end up having just coffee and tea.

The service from the reception was indifferent at best, and we weren’t the only ones noticing. Many other customers were expressing similar frustrations. If you’re looking for a café where reservations take priority over walk-ins and where knowing the staff gets you special treatment, this is the place for you. But if you prefer to enjoy a coffee in a welcoming atmosphere without attitude, you might want to...
