Tailor Made Coffee Roasters is a specialty coffee destination tucked away on a pedestrian street in the heart of Athens, just a short walk from Monastiraki Square. The cafe's minimalist design, white walls, wooden counters, and exposed shelving, puts the focus squarely on the coffee. As a micro-roastery, they source green beans from small farms around the world and roast them in small batches on-site, ensuring peak freshness. The menu changes regularly based on seasonal offerings, with pour-overs, espresso-based drinks, and cold brews available. Baristas are knowledgeable and happy to discuss flavor profiles, from fruity Ethiopian naturals to chocolatey Colombian washed beans. The atmosphere is calm and studious, with a mix of remote workers, coffee enthusiasts, and tourists seeking a respite from the city's bustle. A small selection of pastries and snacks complements the drinks. Tailor Made is not just a cafe but an experience for anyone who appreciates the craft of coffee, offering a genuine taste of Athens' thriving third-wave coffee scene.
