What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Little Kook is widely praised for its breathtaking, ever-changing themed decorations that create a truly magical and immersive experience, especially during holidays. Visitors rave about the friendly service and creative, delicious treats, though some note the prices are higher than average. The sheer volume of decorations can make it crowded, but most agree it's a unique and worthwhile visit.
"This place is magical and the decorations take you to a mystical place. Not only is it beautiful and breath taking but the food and the service was exceptional. The price was so reasonable for the ambience. They don't over charge and you get to live a little kook magic. There was a line up at the main Cafe, they had, a few steps down, a second cafe and we went right in and git seated. Highly recommend for all."

"This place is a must see when you are in Psiri. If you are in Monastiraki just cross Ermou street and you will be in the Psiri neighborhood. The decoration changes according to the time of year and it is absolutly amazing,unreal. There are always LOTS of people who just come to take pictures and selfies so sometime you have to rub elbows to get the picture you want. This time we sat down for a coffee and a refreshment. We didn't have desserts, they are oversized but that wasn't the problem,it had more to do with the time of day. The service was great. Everyone was smiling and friendly and easy to talk to. I admire their courage because beacause it must not be easy with the large crowds this place has.
Our refreshments were expensive but that's to be expected. You pay for the atmosphere,decoration and all that goes with the place. Little Kook is a must in Athens!"
