While this may be my first review, my expanding waist says this may not be my first time here!
Athens pastries is great for two things - going in for an occasional snack of loukmathes (little balls of pastry dipped in syrup of the gods most likely) and meat /cheese/ spinach pies; it is also great for the 'what should we take to xxxxxx's place when we visit?'
The loukmathes are delicious and quite inexpensive (I think it came to $18.50 for 5 dozen).
They only accept cash so make sure to stop by the bank on the way in.
They are consistent and never disappoint. Also, they are open quite late.
