Athos
This cafe is a finalist for best food in Good Food’s Essential Melbourne Cafes and Bakeries of 2025.
Greek$
It looks like any other suburban cafe in Melbourne: tables and chairs sit outside, people in activewear come and go, and a glass cabinet holds large trays of salads and pastries. But beneath all that, Athos has an unwavering dedication to old-school Greek recipes and ultra-fresh produce – and the humble surroundings only amplify the feeling of striking gold.
Best for: Spanakopita from the former owners of Moonee Ponds Greek institution Philhellene.
