Spend an evening at Cinema Riviera, a garden open-air cinema tucked into the centre of Athens. Take a comfortable seat, watch a carefully chosen film on a crisp screen and enjoy beer and pizza during the interval.
Full description
Cinema Riviera is an open-air cinema set within a lush garden in central Athens, running evening screenings through the warm season. Reviewers praise the comfortable seating with generous legroom, the crisp projection and the thoughtful film selection, and describe it as a summer hideaway in the middle of a busy tourist area.
An interval breaks the film naturally, and the buffet sells beer, pizza and other snacks at reasonable prices. Queues at the buffet can build, so it pays to arrive early and order before the film begins.

i was very happy here, be sure to come early to avoid the long line waiting for the buffet (beer, pizza,…). everything is great. people are friendly. but remember: you are in the center of tourist hate zone.
