Dreams really do come true!

They have a menu section of vegan crepes and waffles, and 1/4 of the gelato is marked vegan. I couldn’t pass up a waffle with praline, strawberries, and chocolate gelato, and it was even better than I imagined. The location is perfect and staff is very friendly and all fluent in English. Just one warning - they said the cones are not vegan. But just get a waffle instead!

Good gelato

Pretty typical gelato flavors for Greece but I enjoyed mine. As others have noted they also have vegan crepes and waffles (including a couple of savory crepes) but I didn’t try them. The staff was very friendly and helpful, even insisting I try a sample of the lemon sorbet as apparently previous customers hadn’t believed them when told that flavor is rather tart. Very popular place with both locals and tourists.

Pros: Good gelato, especially the lemon, Very friendly and helpful staff

Delicious gelato!

I was so happy to discover this place close to the Acropolis Museum. They had several flavours of gelato, as well as crepes,waffles and milkshakes. The coconut gelato is amazing, as is the dark chocolate. The waffle was good too. Staff are very friendly, has outdoor seating.

Good ice cream, many vegan options

Decent ice cream for the normal price in touristy areas (€2,8/scoop). Just like most ice cream stores, but with one extra positive: all the vegan options (pancakes, ice cream, milkshakes, ...)

Gelato

The gelato was great! I wouldn’t say it’s much different from the other gelato spots in terms of taste or price, but the vegan selection was nice. Definitely worth a visit if you’re close by!

Love it

They had 6 vegan flavors varying from fruity to chocolatey. They were clearly labeled as vegan, and they also had vegan crepes and waffles! Overall lots of yummy options and price isn’t bad.

Pros: Clearly labeled vegan options , Tasty

Ice cream was ok

The ice was ok but nothing special. They didn't have vegan cones which was kind of sad. The ice cream didn't taste any different or better than at other places.

Great ice cream

Because it was low season they didn't have a ton of vegan options (no waffle) but the ones they had were super good. I got the dark chocolate and the hazelnuts, I had a great time. Very kind staff.

Pas les meilleurs

Ca fait toujours plaisir de pouvoir manger gauffre et crepes vegan mais c clairement pas les meilleurs, la crepe c est du carton et le chocolat sans goût. Pour les crêpes allez à Treis Laloun c'est les meilleures que j'ai goûtées de ma vie!!

Pros: Des crepes, gaufres et glaces, Bel endroit

Cons: Cher, Pas tres savoureux

Amazing! Vegan desserts

Oh my goodness, this place is amazing! I had the vegan crepe with chocolate sauce, bananas, and crunchy almond candies on top with a side of dark chocolate and passion fruit gelato, totally yummy and indulgent! Would love to try the savory crepe next time!

Tasty sorbet!

I tried the lemon & sour cherry sorbet, really refreshing on a warm day! They also had non-sorbet vegan options.

Good ice-cream and waffles

The vegan ice cream and waffles are great. Would highly recommend the combo with coconut ice-cream. Note that you pay for each item separately and it's 2.60 a scoop for ice-cream, the staff won't tell you this. When we went they ran out of crepes.

Pros: Reasonable selection of flavours, Has waffles and crepes if available

Cons: Expensive

Great vegan ice cream - not only sorbets!

I didn't try the vegan crepes or waffles, but the vegan espresso ice cream was great! Their other flavours (that I remember) were dark chocolate, pineapple, watermelon and coconut. A little pricey (€2,60/scoop) but okay considering the location (very close to Akropolis) and totally worth it in my opinion!!

Pros: Several vegan options, Not only sorbets

A perfect pit stop in waffle and icecream heaven in the summer heat of Athens!

Best vegan summer dessert ever!! Three scoops of icecream on a praline waffle covered in banana and nuts may be overkill but then again so worth it! We ate it as our only dinner. Very filling!

Pros: Lots of vegan icecream options, The fluffy and crispy waffles, Friendly staff

Awesome Vegan Gelato

Got the vegan gelato in two flavours - dark chocolate and lemon. They have about 5 vegan options, including those two, dark cherry, coconut and espresso.

Great price and service. The staff noted that the cones are not vegan as they contain egg so I had it from an ice cream bowl. Would go back!

Amazing crepes, nice staff

Vegan crepes, icecream (not just sorbet) waffles and toast, clearly listed vegan. I had the crepe with praline and fresh strawberries, it was amazing and the staff was kind enough to charge my phone so I could get home. Near the Acropolis Museum. Outdoor seating.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Nice staff
