To Kafeneio in Plaka is a traditional mezedopoleio, meaning a restaurant which serves mainly mezedes, small snacks dishes in various tastes. Situated in a three hundred year old house, very close to the Acropolis, it is one of the first of its type to open in Athens. The dishes are from various regions of Greece and the menu is renewed often, so as always to include seasonal products. To Kafeneio is also famous for its wines from the barrel, and the cellar has many varieties from well known wineries, which age on location under the supervision of the producers themselves. The restaurant is open all year, and can sit sixty people inside, and the same number outside at the tables placed on the pedestrian street. In the winter months, the fireplace offers warmth and atmosphere. Free wi fi is also available.
