Kora Athens' First Sourdough Bakery

There are nothing but good vibes at Kora Bakery, where The Beach Boys and Billy Joel songs blast while you bite into your bread. Kora means bread crust in Greek, which is fitting since this is, without a doubt, the best sourdough bread in town. Baker and pastry chef Ianthi Michalaki previously worked in Copenhagen before moving back to her home country to open her own bakery, the first long fermentation sourdough bakery in Athens. Other pastries like morning buns, ham and cheese croissants, and cardamom buns are also on offer. Don’t leave without trying the passionfruit iced tea!

  • Hi, do you deliver your bread in Kalamata if I would order like 7-10 breads?
    Or would you know of a long fermenting sourdough bakery around Kalamata?
    Thank you,
    Sandra

  • I am from Columbus Mississippi and have been making my own sourdough bread since January… I’m obsessed

    My son and I are coming to Athens in June and I was wondering if you could tell me where I can get a great heavy mixing bowl? Would love to have one from Greece . I’ll def be by if we are near your bakery!

    • Glad to see you’ve found our guide to Athens. However, we don’t represent the bakery in any way – we just visited as customers and recommended it in this guide.
