Best Street Food Options in Athens

[nm1999]

When I am visiting a place, I always look for some great street food to try. My last trip to Athens I remember the street corn, toast, koulourakia. I know I can just grab it when I see it, but I figured I'd throw the question out there just in case someone has any specific places to direct me to.

I have never been to Greece so late in the summer season. Will I maybe be able to find chestnuts at this time of year, as well?

You might be able to, but you'll find more of them in September-December. The best months will be October/November

Thank you- I guess that makes sense because they're in season at that time. lol

I love finding pita or kouloura on the street or maybe getting a gyro while on the go. I ate a crepe recently in Santorini with Nutella. I know that isn't a typical Greek thing, but it was yummy and hit the spot!

You'd be surprised.. The Greek version of Nutella is called Merenda, which people love to eat it the way you had a crepe with nutella.
