"Makes arguably the most delicious cheese pie (tyropita) in town, as well as a wide selection of other tasty pies – a must when you need a quick, tasty snack."

Emma Richards

"Try the spanokopita or spinach pie at Ariston, where they move 800 pies every day."

Vangelis Koronakis

"Arguably the best old-fashioned tyropita in Athens – along with other traditional pies – can be bought in Ariston, a bakery operating since 1910."

LILA Philadelphia

"Ariston still uses their original recipe that dates from the early part of the century to make their cheese pies and they are the best that I've ever had, second only to my Giagia's (Greek for grandmother)."

Katerina Papathanasiou

"For a fresh traditional-style tiropita (cheese pastry), Ariston Bakery is the place to be."

Carolina Doriti

"Where to Find the Best Pies in Athens: Ariston Bakery - Their best seller for decades has been the tyropita kourou—a smallish, half-moon pie with a thick, butter-based crust, filled with crumbled feta cheese. Usually served warm, the buttery aroma and tart-like texture, along with the salty feta filling, makes an irresistible snack."

On The Go Tours

"The Greek word for pie is pita and two of the most popular varieties are a cheese pie known as tyropita and a spinach pie called spanakopita. Behind Syntagma Square and on the busy Voulis Street you’ll find Ariston. Established in 1910, the shop is still owned by the original family and is the place to go for pies."

Massimo Pizzocaro

"Listed often in the tourist guidebooks, it fully deserves the reputation it has acquired. Its kourou ‘tiropita’ is outstanding."

By the Path Less Traveled

"If you eat nothing else in Greece, please for the love of food get some tyropita. My preferred location for this cheesy bread is Ariston, notorious as one of the the best places in all of Greece for this super cheap treat."

Sapphire & Elm

"It's old and they do the best spanakopita (spinach pie)."
