Granary Espresso Bar & Eatery — Restaurant in Municipality of Heraklion

I stopped in for breakfast at Granary yesterday morning. This was part of a mission to roam the city center to try tavernas and restaurants I've somehow passed by the past 6 years. I must say I was pleasantly surprised, especially with the kind of smiles and service we've not seen here since before COVID.

The young lady who greeted me, well, she actually rescued this rating a bit. The venue is a small, but super nice pub on one of Heraklion's nicest parks. That said, the cook pretty much goofed on my favorite breakfast test dish. The problem was the eggs being slightly overcooked, and the inside of the omelette being watery. This happens when you try to stuff too many watery ingredients into the mix. The outside gets overcooked in an attempt to cook the stuffed inside. The edges are dry, etc.

Other than this, everything from the water to the presentation and a brilliant cappuccino was perfect. Oh, and you should never serve toast, especially wedges, without marmalade, jam, jelly, or at least butter. What's the point?

Next time I try for...

First they messed up with my husband’s order and only after 15 minutes of waiting they informed what he has ordered cannot be made . Then I specifically asked for no ham in my pasta and they served me with the pasta with ham in it as waitress didn’t communicate to the chef properly , not sure if the chef forgot. It was only when the food came I realised this does not look right. I asked the waitress to double check . They didn’t regard my food restrictions . They changed my order and I had to wait another 15 minutes . But I couldn’t eat the meal as I was already put off from the meal. They didn’t charge us for the meal I ordered but it wasn’t about the money. I think they need to be more careful about people’s food...

Polite staff!

Good and affordable coffee along with a lot of beer!

I loved how they gave me 2 cookies with my coffee I'm a huge cookie addict! 🍪

Me and my friends had a blast in that shop though I didn't see their logo around a lot !! I even had to look through the receipt to see how this place is called in order to upload my instagram story 😂😂

I highly recommend them and their shop and will definitely visit them again! I hope they can truly continue their good service and I'm hoping to see more of their logo next time I visit them!!

Have a great day continue the...
