This little spot on Main Street in safety harbor is a gem . One of the best gyros and avelemono soups I have ever had ( glad I ordered a bowl) . Pleasant staff but service a bit slow . Guilty I'm from NY. Interior much like a diner. One of the many on this street only open for breakfast and lunch . Overall was very pleased read more

Excellent Greek restaurant and diner in downtown Safety harbor. I sat at the counter area. Service was excellent. I had the Mediterranean omelette: 4 egg omelette with gyro, spinach, tomatoes, olives, pepperoncini, and feta with tzatziki sauce on the side and hash browns and toast. All were excellent, the omelette was a great portion size. I didn't have to wait but as I was leaving around 10am on a Sunday they started to get busy. Closed on Tuesdays, open 730am to 230 pm every day but Sundays it closes at 130. read more

One thing that I didn't care for off the bat: Christmas music!!! When the waitress acknowledged us after a few minutes, I gently said something to that effect. She looked at us and told us it's the radio station... When she came back to take our food order, she said how annoyed SHE is by the nonstop Santa songs, etc. We all had a good laugh and on we went. Queen Bee asked for the breakfast burrito, which is egg, sausage, peppers onion, tomato and cheddar. For $2 more you can have taters, fruit or grits too. I chose Italian omelet: three eggs with Italian sausage, peppers, onion, mutz...I chose home fries and rye toast, as omelets and other breakfast platters offer toast along with grits, taters or fruit. The taters can be either hash browns or home fries: as you choose. I asked for mine crisp with onions: NYC on a plate, Breakfast Division! Meantime, based on our waitress' conversations as she was hustling, I can say one thing. She (Judy) has a lot of regulars and has been slinging hash here for a good long while. Judy has a very friendly manner and just enough sass to remind me of a real diner like I used to enjoy back in my youthful NY decades. Both our breakfasts were quite generous in size and flavor. Her burrito was a huge parcel of meaty, cheesy, eggy gooeyness, all wrapped in a tomato tortilla! It reminded me of a cross section of a fire hose!! She put a big dent in it, which I find a lil shocking. My Queen Bee has a small appetite but that bugger was addictive apparently. My omelet was well prepared too. Tasty and well balanced rainbow of Italian flavor; a lil less flavorful than Acropol but still quite good. Home fries were kinda crisp and a nice crown of grilled onions atop. They needed a lil more flavoring to rival Acropol but that's what salt and pepper shakers can do. Good diner spuds have paprika in the mix too. At any rate: would we return here? I'd say yes, because it is a clean looking spot. It provided good food at a relatively reasonable price ($20.50 + tip), as well as a great, friendly and feisty waitress. We both liked it and there's a few lunch options we'd both like to try also. read more

We've noticed this spot several times walking around downtown Safety Harbor, but usually in the evening after they've closed. We finally made it in for breakfast this morning and had a casual breakfast. Happy we finally made it in! It was "seat yourself" both inside and out, but it was so gorgeous outside that all the outside tables were snagged so we sat inside at a booth. There's also tables and some limited counter seating. The menu is immense, for both breakfast and for lunch, with so many tasty sounding options. I kept it simple with the pancakes, topping them with chocolate chips & strawberries and getting a side of bacon. I also got a hot chocolate, which was honestly my favorite part as a lot of breakfast spots no longer seem to have that. My boyfriend got scrambled eggs with cheese, the home fries, bacon, and white toast. He really enjoyed the eggs, but felt the home fries were a little undercooked. You could tell it was a regular spot for quite a few people; many of the servers greeted guests by names & had great engagement with everyone. Outside there were dogs at almost every table too; definitely a friendly spot for the pups! read more

We stopped in for lunch on a Sunday around 12:30. We ordered the chicken kabob special, the spinach pie special and the chicken souvlaki special. Each on came with a huge portion of Greek salad. The salad was my favorite part and I would return just for that. There was a big heap of potato salad on top. The staff were busy but nice. It's located on a strip of shops and restaurants in Safety Harbor so you can walk around after lunch to explore or grab a coffee or ice cream. We heard that they are especially known for their breakfast so will have to return to give that a try. Ambience is casual diner with Greek decor. read more

Athens Restaurant - Daily specials! - Greek Near Me - Safety Harbor, Florida

This place started with a four star review...but poor-or lack of--service reduced it to 2 stars, Which in my opinion is don't bother, there are plenty of other good restaurants to choose from. Sat down outside with a friend with about 90 minutes for a leisurely lunch. Server seemed friendly and helpful. Discussed menu options and her recommendations and went with those. Drinks brought out and....,nothing for ?20 minutes until our food was brought out. Shortly after, my knife fell on the floor and my ice tea needed a refill--and nothing again for at least another twenty minutes. No exaggeration on the time. We were the only ones outside, so apparently we were forgotten. She never wants checked on us to see if everything was OK or if we needed anything at all. When she finally did come out, she brought the check and asked if we wanted refills for our drinks. We said yes, and I asked for a new nice, which at that point was a moot point. Was was basically using my fork to try to cut my food... when she returned with a knife, she forgot to bring our refills. She didn't return for another 10 minutes to collect the credit card to go with the check. After another request, she came out with our drinks now to go, since the restaurant was technically closed ( after 2:30). My meal:spanakopita on Greek salad. Salad decent, not overly fresh, served with potato salad and beets which apparently is the norm in Florida.Spanakopita warm , not hot, with the aforementioned problem of lacking clean knife to cut. Fair, not fantastic. My friend had no complaints, nor positive remarks about her meal. Bottom line: your staff is your business. If they suck, you suck. Go ELSEWHERE. read more

Nice little local place on Main Street. They serve breakfast all day!!! Prices are reasonable for sure. Very homey. Staff is so pleasant! My husband got the gyro and loved it. I got the Greek salad. Not impressed. But the pita it came with was warm and fresh. My son got a beautiful spinach egg white omelet. Very good! We also ordered a pecan pancake and my husband and son couldn't some eating it. They didn't leave any! read more

If you're a New Yorker and feeling homesick for a diner, this is the place to visit. Athens Restaurant is a mom and pop restaurant that has the fixings of a typical diner you'll find up north. I walked in around noon and was pleasantly surprised I could still order breakfast. I ordered the 2 eggs special with hash browns and toast and ::drum roll please:: it was only $6.75! What in the world?! In this day an age it's hard to find anything for a good deal. The food was a bit bland but nothing the salt and pepper shakers couldn't fix. I was satisfied with my meal and will definitely come back to try lunch or dinner. read more

We woke up a little late on a Sunday morning but I was so happy to see that this restaurant serves breakfast all day! I highly recommend Mediterranean omelette, the tzatziki sauce was so fresh! The biscuits and gravy were also very tasty. We ended our meal with some baklava which was served warm and coffee. I will definitely be back for another lazy Sunday breakfast! read more

I've been coming here for years with my kids since before they could walk. I'm a Marine Veteran of 8 years and have lived in this town for 20 years. Came here after dropping off my kids and to treat myself since Veterans' Day. I really don't don't wanna hear political conspiracies the entire time I'm eating breakfast. I don't wanna hear independents and Democrats are bad people. The food is lovely and the people are nice, hoping to revisit one day but not anytime soon. God Bless... read more

Visiting Safety Harbor and want a quick inexpensive breakfast or lunch? Open 7 to 230 pm everyday except Sunday 7 to 130 pm. Athens on Main is a simple diner that is a Safety Harbor old time landmark for the last 30 plus years. Nothing fancy just good food with lots of Greek style options and the traditional breakfast and lunch fare. Two can get out for less than 20 bucks for breakfast. Today I had a banana and pecan pancake with bacon and one egg. Plus fresh OJ for 9 dollars. Plus tip. Sat outside and enjoyed the morning. read more

Great small long-standing restaurant near the spa. Serves lunch or breakfast for breakfast. I enjoyed their excellent, fresh well-made gyro and a piece of warmed baklava. Service was swift and friendly, portions large, prices fair. Pepsi products on the fountain, Coke products by can. Lots of traditional egg breakfasts were served here and many locals coming out the door is always a good sign. I would not hesitate to work through the menu here. Outdoor seating with water for dog walkers provided. read more

Yeap 2 stars! Located in Safety Harbor, alongside a strip mall. I loved the diner look, very cozy and homey feeling inside the restaurant. Sadly, there weren't anybody there, which is never a good sign especially during lunch hour. They specialized in some Greek entrees like gyros and Greek salad but that was about it. Most of the items in the menu were sandwiches and breakfast entrees. Wish they had more Greek inspired dishes. Upon seating, we ordered the gyro with the side of fries. Did I mention besides us, there was only one customer there. The service was super slow, no one came to refill our drinks or check on us until we were ready to pay the bill. I saw group of wait staff sitting in the back conversing while I was trying to get someone's attention for more water. I wasn't very pleased. Back to the food, the gyro with fries came and it was way too hot. We had to wait till our food cooled down before we could have a bite. No worries, moving on. The gyro meat was great, but the tzatziki sauce was horrible, runny yogurt sauce. There were cubes of cucumber and onion sprinkled atop the sandwich. Overall, wasn't impressed with the service or the food. Won't be back. read more

Interesting breakfast, while visiting we had breakfast at this location, the waitress (whom I later found out was the owner) was talking very loudly to a table next two us, about how she didn't appreciate trans gender and gay people dining at her restaurant...there was a couple there whom I believe she was trying to offend. Absolutely hateful speech coming from this discussing woman...please do not support her business, she spews hate language. read more

Ducked in to meet a local politician and talk social and digital marketing. Quaint and stuck in time, love the Greek murals. The flatware is flat and dated and cheap. Located in quaint Safety Harbor, I would enjoy more time here. Raisin toast is what I ate. It was toast and had raisins. Tiny little coffee cups. Time for a brand refresh. read more

If you are looking for fine dining or fancy breakfast pancakes, this ain't the place for you. But, if you are looking for a quick, tasy breakfast while traipsing around Safety Harbor, this is your spot. My boyfriend and I frequent this little diner for breakfast and are never disappointed. It's inexpensive and the staff is always very friendly. Sure the place is a little dated, but what local breakfast diner isn't? We keep saying we're going to actually eat Greek food here, but we never do. We love the eggs and bacon meal and they have pretty decent coffee. It may not be Bob Evans, but it's almost as good. read more
