Coffee is no casual thing in Athens. While you can stop in at a coffee shop for an icy espresso freddo on your way to work, there are other times, when having a coffee means you’ll be staying awhile. At Mokka Coffee in Athens, on a gritty street near Omonia Square, the baristas brew classic Greek coffee in ibriks nestled in a heated countertop sandbox. Sugar is mixed in at the front end. If you like it a little sweet, order it medium, or as the locals say,”metrio.”
