What happens when three friends combine their forces, aesthetics, and expertise to create a place? Great things, as proven at Lovely Days in Peristeri. This idea might have originated during the quarantine, stemming from their need to craft a space they themselves would eagerly visit as customers. In the post-quarantine era, it’s embraced by all the coffee-loving—and beyond—tribes of the western suburbs.
Lovely Days is both a name and a reality. It’s an all-day hub aspiring to enhance your day with something equally delightful in your cup, on your plate, or in your glass. A good day starts with specialty coffee from Area 51, tasty snacks, and brunch. It progresses to comfort food such as burgers, pizza, and salads throughout the day, culminating in signature cocktails and early drinks accompanied by DJ sets in the evening.
It captivates you at first glance, with its appearance and its evident openly displayed design. The space is surrounded by glass surfaces that leverage natural light, simultaneously linking visitors with the neighborhood’s vibe. With a polished mosaic floor and mid-20th-century Scandinavian elements mixed with a neo-café ambiance, it features a massive marble bar, pop décor, and earthy tones in an extremely welcoming package.
Their carefully crafted dishes arrive in enamelware and ceramic plates, each ingredient being top-quality and fresh. From the healthy bowls with yogurt, nuts, sesame, honey, and seasonal fruits to the vegan sandwiches with whole-grain ciabatta, lemon hummus, Florina peppers, and greens. Their hotdogs are a revelation, much like the pasta salad with homemade pesto.
Regarding cocktails, we’re talking about absolute indulgence: the Berry Root Paloma and Piña Daiquiri are perfect twists on classics. You’ll also find microbreweries like Noctua and Strange Brew, along with Aperitivo/Spritz that change with the seasons, keeping your interest peaked and sharpened. Lovely Days has this gift: it turns its visitors into loyal regulars and newcomers into believers. For all that’s mentioned and for more that can’t be described but experienced.
