Here you’ll get Italian-inspired Mediterranean food in funky environment. Friendly service is topped by a good wine list with some of the latest Greek vintages and wines from the New World. Brachera also has one of the best rooftop views of Athens’ sites (the entire Acropolis holy rock), which perhaps explains why ship owners and industrialists are as likely to rub shoulders here as artists and penny-watching tourists. Dinner/lunch for two is likely to set you back €85 with wine.
