You can find virtually anything there, from nuts, dried fruits, superfoods, coffee, artisan chocolate and typical Greek snacks. Be seduced by the inviting smell and delicious flavors inside. But we need to warn you. Since there is always some items on sale, you might find yourself in need of an extra suitcase once you’ve set foot inside.

Inspired by the contrast between industrial and natural shapes, the studio includes an interesting collection of evil eye lucky charms in the true Greek spirit. Whether looking for a souvenir to give or to keep for yourself or even a spot to enjoy some drinks (there is a “drinkroom”on the premises), Bord de l’Eau is a must-visit.
