Love Holy Llama!

Visited Athens in October and this place was my absolute favourite! Went several times and always loved it. Great range of food options - meals and delicious pastries - and good coffee. My non-vegan friends loved it too, which is always a win! Really nice atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor seating.
Big shout out to our waitress Eleana - it was only her second day and she was incredible! Super funny, helpful and sunny.

Pros: Excellent range of options, Delicious pastries, Great vibe ans helpful staff

Cons: Can get busy, Not loads of seating

Yummy but expensive

I visited this place with my non-vegan/non-vegetarian parents and we were really happy about the pastries. Even though it was full, they arranged a table for us in some minutes and we sat down. The staff was very very nice and did everything to make us feel comfortable. I will definitely go there again!
The only thing you should keep in mind: the prices are high. Maybe it’s not something for everyday, but if you want to treat yourself with something special this should be the right choice!

Pros: Only vegan options, Amazing pastries!, Helpful and nice staff

Cons: More on the expensive side, Busy

Wonderful! Must visit

Holy Llama is a French bakery turned vegan. If you want croissants and other flaky pastries, you need to come here. Everything is vegan and delicious. Prices are fair: €2 to €3 per bakery item. There’s lots of seating and a full menu if you want a light café-style meal. I tried a few items, and my favourite is the almond croissant - a perfect balance of sweet and savoury.

great tasting sandwich

Stopped in for breakfast and a latte. I had their BLT on sourdough bread which came with a side of greens. They manage to get a lot of flavor in that sandwich! Also had a great latte with oat milk. Will definitely be my breakfast spot again tomorrow

Returned for breakfast today - it was as good as yesterday. - had the full breakfast which included tofu scramble, mushroom, grilled tomato and potatoes.

Nice place :)

Based on the reviews I set my expectations very high. I was not disappointed. I tried the savoury croissant and the blue spirulina latte. Everything was very tasty. I'm planning to go back and try something sweet :)

Too high expectations?

I happycow'ed this restaurant and was excited to take a bite there.
Unfortunately, my hopes were too high and I left a bit unsatisfied.
I ordered a tofu scrambled egg sandwich and an iced latte.
The coffee was very good and I am usually not a fan of it.
But the sandwich disappointed me... It was small, the ingredients weren't spiced well, and it just felt like an unfinished recipe. Next to it was some salad served, which has very little of the sauce in it and just seemed weird.
Hopefully, this was just a tired chef...

Pros: good coffee, desserts look good

Cons: small portion, incomplete taste, expensive

Sehr zu empfehlen

Unser Favorit in Athen. Alles was wir bestellt haben, war super lecker. Die Auswahl an süßen veganen Gebäcken ist unglaublich. Das Ambiente lädt zum verweilen ein und die Mitarbeiter waren alle sehr freundlich. Wir kommen gerne wieder. Mehr auf IG @zweidiereisen

Decent variety

Staff was friendly and spoke English. Item descriptions available in English as well.
The puff dog was a little expensive and the taste didn't blow me away.
The crossaint tasted very well and had a fair-er price.

Gorgeous bakery

The actual store itself is lovely, very clean and modern. The food is delightful. We tried the soft cookie and the lemon cake from here and both were delicious. Also a very good price - €4.90 for both the lemon cake and the cookie. Would recommend checking this place out if you’re looking for for tasty snacks in Athens.

Amazing pastries, lovely people!

Holy Llama became our breakfast venue for the week we spent in Athens! The pastries are incredible, and I cannot recommend them highly enough!

We had the Puff Dog, Quiche, Leek Pie, Mushroom Pie, pistachio croissant, plain croissant, plus more! A standout for us, on our last day, was the BLT… the grilled cheese bagel was also great. We also tried a variety of cakes - the carrot cake is fab!

The people here are lovely - so friendly and welcoming - and the venue is great for just sitting and watching the world go by.

If you’re in Athens, this is a definite must!

Pros: Amazing pastries, Lovely lovely people , Great venue

Amazing pastries!

This busy centrally located vegan cafe offers some of the finest pastries we have had anywhere in the world. The flavoured croissants are huge and delicious - I loved the pistachio one. The savouries are also amazing.
We visited every day during our week in Athens. The staff are wonderfully friendly and the cafe is beautiful to look at.
Definitely a must visit if you are in the city.

Pros: Incredible Pastries, Lovely staff, Beautiful surroundings

Love it

Beautiful aesthetic cafe with delicious breakfast and brunch items. This type of place was definitely missing from Athens and to be honest I haven’t really seen anything similar in other cities in Europe. Prices are decent and the position is amazing!!

Delicious bakery

Great place to eat vegan pastries. I had the mushroom pie and it was absolutely delicious. It’s a bit pricy but totally worth the money.

Vegan Pastry Heaven

On our final day in Athens we had breakfast here. This is a my first experience in an all Vegan bakery/Cafe, it was a dream come true. The options were plentiful, aesthetically beautiful, and delicious. I wanted to leave with one of each. My husband got a Caprese croissant sandwich with the most amazing mozzarella alternative and I had a deconstructed yogurt toast with rich thick creamy yogurt topped with berries and jam. We left with a Puff dog and an almond croissant for later and found both to be equally delicious. Highly recommend 👌
