Phyllo Sophies - Irakleion

I can highly recommend this place! VERY nice staff, great food and drinks. It is one of the few places around that opens up at 6am already which is very convenient if you arrive by ferry in the morning. We really enjoyed our time here. The cafe is placed at a nice square with a fountain, has an outdoor area and two seating areas inside. Good experience all around : !

Excellent location, beautiful view in the lion fountain and the square with St, Mark’s basilica, amazing coffee, one of the best ones I had in weeks, great service, very good pie, and an excellent service!! A must go place when in Heraklion!

Sitting sidewalk is the best for people watching. Recommend the frappé, and the bougatsa! The lions square is a great breakfast to share.

It is a sweet little restaurant in the heart of heraklion. we had a bougatza with Mizithra cheese and kissed and an Ekmek-Kadaifi cake. very different and delicious. now we want to try all other variations of bougatza and ekmek.

The eldest cafe in Heraklion, opened in 1922. They are famous for serving traditional Greek pies bougatsa. The store is at the lion square, where you can enjoy having your coffee and bougatsa while enjoying the view of the fountain. My favourite is the bougatsa with cheese, honey and nuts. The prices are affordable, and the staff are friendly and very quick. It 's a must if you 're visiting Heraklion. You won 't regret it.
