Kritikos Fournos

This fun cafe-bakery is a Cretan chain, and it's a dependable stop for good espresso (it opens at 6am!), baked goods, pastries and sandwiches (including tasty vegan focaccia options) and even a craft beer or two. Perch yourself in a choice people-watching spot overlooking Lion Sq and banter with the hip, friendly staff. Signed in Greek only.
