6 Best Restaurants in Attica and Delphi, Greece

Aqua Marina is an old favorite among locals. It's hard to resist its list of sweet treats, from a huge wedge of tasty baklava to a great splodge of galaktoboureko, a custardy classic topped in filo pastry and sweet-scented syrup. Stick to the desserts though—the savory stuff is a bit overpriced.

A recent makeover has elevated this old timer. Fine views from the rear terrace overlooking the rock-topped clocktower and valley accompany tasty waffles, cakes, pastries, and coffee.

Catch a coffee or freshly squeezed mixed-fruit juice at this popular hangout in tree-covered Lakka Square—and don't forget their croissants: the best in town!

It doesn't take an oracle to divine the reasoning behind the name of this café; two large telescopes decorate the terrace looming over the gorge below. The menu is littered with tidbits to tempt visitors, including the usual array of Greek cakes and juices, but the views are the real lure here.

The name is something of a giveaway. This local chain is beloved by families and grown-ups with a sweet tooth or a love of sorbet-based cocktails. Waffles topped with a choice of ice creams are the order of choice, though spare a thought for the "waffins," a kind of donut-waffle hybrid that is either a crime against humanity or the best thing it's ever produced. We're not sure. It also does alcoholic drinks, which seems kind of odd.
