Alphabet is an absolute delight! From the moment we walked in, everything was warm, welcoming, & beautifully done. Tony was fantastic he personally checked in with us, offered great suggestions, & made the experience feel genuinely special. The service was top notch, & every drink we had was spot on. The atmosphere was elevated even more by the modern Greek music playing in the background such a cool & unique touch that made the space feel vibrant & relaxed at the same time. Can't wait to come back!

The freddo drinks are fun looking but don't deliver much in flavour. Just get the normal drinks instead.

They have raised the bar for what a coffee experience should be. Great service, product, style, brand. Makes everywhere else seem ordinary.

What can I say...
I flew in from Athens Greece on the afternoon of April 12th & have come by here every day since for a daily incredible experience & of course delightful goodies!
From Molly's incredible Flat White to Costa's incredible honey sweetened hot Matcha Latte, to Catherine's very beautiful/ welcoming smile at the cash register & Tony's (the founder) impeccable hospitality, I already know I'm going to profoundly miss this place & it's loving energy when I return to Greece next week. God bless this place & the beautiful people in it, FOREVER!!! ♥?💙💖
