Little Bear Athens Bistro

This cozy little bistro boasts an exceptionally friendly and attentive staff. We had no complaints about the service, which was mentioned in other reviews. The owner herself was incredibly warm and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed their Greek salad, which we found to have the best vegan feta in all the vegan Greek salads we had tried in Athens. We also ordered the mixed grill, which was delicious, but we found it a bit too oily for our taste. We’ll probably opt for something less oily next time.

Very poor service

Very extensive vegan menu many with vegan meat products. We went for coffee and backlava. They took our order and then we waited ages (while they did numerous other things). We had to remind them twice that we were waiting. The coffee and baclave wasn't great.

The most delicious handmade and original vegan sweets and food dishes

The best restaurant and pastry shop in Athens and Piraeus and beyond! Vegan food and sweets made with soul... Definitely worth a visit!

Sorry but no

While I generally support fully plant-based establishments, our recent and only experience here was unfortunately quite underwhelming. The quality of the meal was poor and appeared to lack the expected attention to detail. Several items served were cold, the fries were undercooked, and the overall preparation was subpar. Although we did not sample the desserts, I would not recommend traveling across town for a meal here based on this experience.

Pros: It 100% vegan, There is a nice veriety

Cons: Food not yummy, Service was slow and effortles.

Thank you for coming! Unfortunatelly the shop was closed due to moving out when you visited so we were experiencing lots of difficulties. We mentioned that of course, but again, we are sorry for your bad experience.

Ok

It’s fantastic to have a place fully vegan in Piraeus, however the service is not very friendly (I have been there 3 times). Food is OK, not too bad, not too good. Last time they gave me a extremely salty tofu scrambled. So salty that it was impossible to eat. They told that’s the way it is and they charged me full amount anyway.
I am sure they can do better. If they put some more attention into the service and the quality of their food, I’m sure they’ll have a good product. Wishing them the best.

Thank you! Sadly, we are no longer in Piraeus. The plate you liked before is called Kayanas and it's the Greek style tofu scrambled. The plain one is a completely different dish, maybe that's why it's not the best for your palette. I just wanted to make it clear that they are actually too different items in the menu. Thank you so much for coming!

Great breakfast

We had amazing breakfast here. Oredered two sandwiches and frappes and one cake for two persons and dishes were so big we could not finish! They had a long menu! Would have liked to try all the dishes. I also took two chocolates as take away and those were also good. Really warm and welcoming service! If we heard right they are moving to Athens next year!

Vegan pastries in Pyreas

To explore the area around Athens, I stopped by the port district of Piraeus. I had planned to visit this unique vegan bakery and bistro in Piraeus, which opened in 2021.
They serve sandwiches, brunch dishes, veggie omelets, souvlaki, burgers, salads, full meals, and even croque monsieur and croque madame!
For dessert, they have cakes, vegan Greek specialties, and cookies.

I ordered a traditional Greek dish: a vegetable omelet with tofu and tomato, served with a plant-based sausage and fries (kagionas)—it was delicious.
For dessert, a beautiful red fruit Black Forest cake rounded out my meal.
The staff was attentive, very friendly, and truly welcoming!
And I was lucky enough to have them prepare a hearty Caesar club sandwich for the flight!

I highly recommend this bakery—the only 100% vegan spot in Piraeus!

Very tasty and very sweet!

Little Bear is a cute little shop that offers a wide range including both savoury and sweet food. When we visited we were looking for sweet treats to take away and were very impressed with the range.

We went for a slice each of Bueno and Black Forest, along with two Baklava and a chocolate cigar, which all came to €9.50, which I thought was very reasonable.

We also chatted with the owner who was lovely and told us she makes everything fresh each day!

Everything we got was very tasty! I would say that the Bueno, black forest and chocolate cigar were all quite similar in flavour, but I really enjoyed them all. The Bueno and black forest were lovely and moist, and the chocolate cigar had a crispy shell and lovely filling. The Baklava was also really good with lovely crispy pastry and drenched in delicious syrup. They were also all very sweet which I personally enjoyed but maybe something to be aware of if you have less of a sweet tooth.

Definitely worth a visit, and perfect if you are catching a ferry from the port like we were!

Baked abundance

A friendly family-run patisserie less than 10 minutes’ walk from the Piraeus ferries. We bought a variety of sweet baked goods to sample—they also have savory—and my favorites were the chocolate “cigars.”

Großartiges Essen, noch großartigere Kuchen!

Süßes Lokal mit sehr netten Besitzer*innen. Das Highlight sind die Süßspeisen.
Es gibt nur wenige Sitzplätze im lokal, aber es werden bei Bedarf noch Sessel/Tische hergeräumt.
Absolute Empfehlung!

Yummy cakes with amazing creames 😋🍰

traveling to vegan life festival in Athens with some friends. During the duration of the festival I have tried a bunch of different sweet treats from them, as we went there multiple times, and have to say. I loved all of them. They offer mostly vegan cakes with delicious creames, which melt in your mouth. Definitely worth a visit 😋

Fresh and amazing!

The baked goods are what we came for and it did NOT disappoint!! We ended up staying for the Big Bear Burger as well and it was HUGE! It's about a 30-35 min walk from the cruise port, but so very worth it. Also, there was baklava! I was so excited to get some and wish I could take more home with me. The owner is so sweet and helpful as well. Would definitely recommend visiting here!

There was the best moussaka ever! I'll be there tomorrow again for sure.


I'm here again. Today I took Greek salad. It was sooo big that I couldn't eat all of it, but great. I will take some cakes with me for sure... They look delicious.

Piraeus' Hot Spot

Large portions and rich food: you won't leave still feeling hungry 😉 It also offers a varied selection of sweets; I tried the peanut biscuits and they were so well baked and tasty without being too sweet. The mixed fruit juice was also made to perfection. Seating indoors and outside. I'm glad Piraeus has its dedicated Vegan eatery!

Pros: Selection of food, 100% vegan, Perfect location for me

Little Bear, Big Flavors

Little Bear Patisserie in Pireas is a delightful spot if you're craving something indulgent. The food, desserts, and cookies were all absolutely delicious—rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. This isn’t the place for a health-conscious meal, but if you’re treating yourself, it’s well worth it.

The service was kind and welcoming, though not particularly attentive. It seemed the staff and owners were having their own lunch at the time, which may have made them a bit less focused on customers.

All in all, a charming patisserie with memorable treats and a cozy atmosphere. Perfect for a sweet break.

Unexpected gem on the Greek coast!

We went for lunch before catching a ferry, and was met by the lovely family and super delicious food. We were 2 people who shared the mix grill, and it was a big portion - more than enough for two. The pita was out of this world, and the tzatziki one of the best we have had! They make the fake meat themselves, and both texture and taste was impressive. The orange juice was also great! Recommend also trying the cookies or bring some to go, they were a nice cherry on the top! 10/10, totally recommend this place to all vegans and non-vegans!

Friendly and filling, incredible choices

Such a variety from BLT and smoked salmon sandwiches, to moussake and gyros. The fluffiest creamy cakes with at least 8 varieties, and quick takeaway sweet and savoury pastries

Pros: So so many varied options

Cons: Very small seating: 3 tiny tables max 3 people
