Perfect

A great place to eat on our first night in Athens. Delicious slices of pie, burgers, cake and pastries. The service was warm and friendly and the music was great. Lots of lovely ornaments, books, records and games around the place. Our family really enjoyed eating here and will be back.

Pros: Excellent service , Great atmosphere

Delicious

The food was amazing. I had the smoked tofu burger. The vibe of the cafe was exactly what I needed on a Friday night after a long week. The host was welcoming and friendly!

Pros: All vegan, Delicious, Cozy vibe

Fabulous all round

This is a delightful oasis for an evening meal. The vegan Miyazaki was lovely, as was the spanakopita. The burger was enormous! They use only vegan wine too and the rose was frankly the best I had tasted. Upstairs is a lovely experience and the place has a great decor including old books along one wall. It’s a 10 minute walk from the Acropolis Museum past some interesting shops. The people are wonderful too.

Pros: Food, The owner, The venue

Cons: None

We loved this place

The vegetable pies are great! But everything we had was very good. The owner is very, very friendly and fluently speaks English. Mother is a perfect name for this place, it feels like family.

Just OK

Being a bistro the food is somehow limited, but it’s rather mid and a bit bland.

Food was nothing special but overpriced

We had breakfast there. The food was just OK. Nothing special or stellar and neither very abundant. For that - and the relatively remote location - it was certainly overpriced. (We had cheaper and better dinner elsewhere for less.) We would not go there again.

Calm spot

The restaurant was quite calm when I stopped in for dinner which was a welcome reprieve from the busy Athens streets. There were two pies available, I picked the pumpkin as it wasn't meant to have dill while the spinach pie did. Unfortunately there was dill added to the pie which was a major bummer for me, it's a strong flavor and overpowered it so I didn't enjoy the pie. I also had a side of the fava which was basic but nice. Cute shop, kind service, lots of the food looked great I just didn't choose well for myself so the meal was so so.

Lovely chilled restaurant

Visited here twice, once for dinner and then for coffee.
The dinner was great, I has the tofu burger and my friend had the special which was a chickpea dish. We had some delicious red wine from Crete. Lovely chilled atmosphere.

Pros: The menu , The friendly staff , The food and drinks

It's really good but a bit overpriced

The pies were delicious and genuine but not very filling, the staff was really friendly and the place is extremely inviting and aesthetic.

A must go!

Mother Vegan is a bistro (not restaurant), which means that it has a limited menu. If the choices, all are made in-house. No Beyond meat or impossible burgers here. Clean healthy food is the focus and of the dishes I ate (3) everything’s was amazingly delicious. Add friendly service and knowledgeable nutritionists to the mix and you got a win-win.

Pros: Clean food - no canola or seed oils , Friendly owners and matching service , Awesome fresh juices

Cons: Although bistro, I wish there were more choices

Best spanakopita

Love their spanakopita (spinach pie), the atmosphere is really nice too: sit outside with a coffee and some food and watch the world go by.

Pros: Spanakopita , Music (classical), Owners

A yummy, nice reprieve

After a long day of walking in the heat, this place was exactly what I needed. It was very laidback, and the food was great. I got a tasty handmade burger that did not try to mimic the taste of meat. I personally like that. It came with some potatoes and a delicious dipping sauce. I also got an apple pie a la mode. The pie had a very fresh, apple-forward flavor as opposed to the very sugary flavor we’re used to in the U.S. The service was excellent, too - attentive without being intrusive. I recommend.

Pros: Food that didn’t try to mimic meat, Great service, Quiet atmosphere

Place with a soul!

Such good pies (try the chard one!) and the ginger drink was really refreshing. Good coffee, would’ve loved to try more of their menu.
The whole place is just such a vibe. I’m sad I didn’t come here earlier.

(Go to the restroom, never seen anything like it before ♥️☺️)

Not for me

The owner was very friendly but I expected so much more. Food was only okay and the opera music was very loud and not very relaxing. Many people seem to love it, but it wasn’t my jam.

Sweet Breakfast

We had the Sweet Banana (don't expect banana bread) which was tasty, as well as tea and cappuccino freddo. It would be nice if the tea came in loose leaves rather than bags! The classical music playing is a nice touch.

Nice atmosphere and good food

I really enjoyed my visits here. It’s got a welcoming, coffee shop vibe so is a pleasant place to come and sit. More for light bites than big meals, the food is really fresh and tasty.

Absolutely amazing

The spinach pie was heavenly. So frigging good! The coffee was OK. The service was amazing. The most delightful server.

This isn't a place to get a full meal (other than maybe the burger) but if looking for a cafe type food, this place is a must.

Pros: Amazing food, Delightful service, Great environment

Top notch nosh

Great wee vegan place, luckily round the corner from where I’m staying. Only grabbed a spinach pie and a couple of croissants on the go, but was totally great and tasty. Even my kids ate the the croissants, and they’re pretty fussy eaters. Slightly high in price I think, but will defo visit again soon.

Pros: Near me , Great food. , Lovely atmosphere and staff

Cons: Little expensive
