Located between the central squares of Omonoia and Monastiraki, Varvakeios is a perfect paradigm of a local flea market. All kinds of food can be found there. Fish, meat, vegetables, cheese, spices and many more. It's a market most preferred by locals, who seek for good quality Greek products in reasonable prices.
Supplying yourself with food can be pricey sometimes and very boring as a process. Walking around Varvakeios, tasting products, and interracting with local producers is a great way to complete your shopping. There are 4 restaurants in Varvakeios with great food! The food served there, is typical greek, so don't miss it.
The ground is slippery, especially in the fish market, so try to avoid wearing flip-flops.
