Settle in at Bel Ray, an easygoing Athens parlor that carries you from brunch right through to late-night drinks. Order a croque madame or tahini yogurt with a Greek coffee and linger at a sidewalk table.
Full description
Bel Ray works as a brunch spot by day and a bar by night, open from 9 AM and running until 1 AM on weekdays and 3 AM on Saturdays. The menu leans modern: a croque madame, grilled cheese, tahini yogurt, salads and hearty soups, with Greek coffee and cake of the day for a lighter stop.
Both outdoor and indoor seating make it usable in any weather, and reviewers pick up on the relaxed, cool atmosphere. It suits couples and anyone wanting a stylish, unhurried brunch rather than a quick coffee.

Reviews
The atmosphere of this place is really cool. With both out and inside sitting options, makes it the perfect choice despite weather. The croque madame was stunning, would highly recommend. The eggs were a bit too overdone, but still. Great value for price.
