Urban Thessaloniki

Feels like home

Giannis from Thessaloniki

""Urban" Thessaloniki is a cafe bar on Zeuksidos & Iktinou streets. Here I enjoy my coffee under the beautiful trees, or the reasonably priced cocktails."

One of the most beautiful places in the centre of Thessaloniki in my opinion is the Zeuksidos - Iktinou district, and the fact that there is a lot of Trees, no cars, and a lot of benches, makes the area "people friendly" especially from Spring to Autumn when the sun is shining and the Thessalonician are always need to be outside. Here in summer literally you will try to find a place to sit outside in the many cafes.

One of my favourite place in this street is the cafe - bar Urban, where you can come from early in the morning and enjoy your coffee under the beautiful trees, until late at night to enjoy their tasty home made cocktails at very reasonable prices. The place inside has it's own vibe, with old stuff, like retro Televisions and beauty saloon chairs.

If you come here at noon or the evening, please enjoy a nice cold beer. I will suggest you if you are a fan of the White - Weiss beers to try our local Vergina Weiss beer, but if the night falls and you are in the mood for something special, like a cocktail and you like to be a little bit spicy, I would suggest to enjoy a nice Thai Margarita.

Castello

An epic caffe!

In front of the promenade of Thessaloniki, there are innumerable cafes. The presumable question that a visitor may have is: “Which one should I choose?”. I have the answer! Of course, “Castello”.
