Hands On Greek Cooking Classes in Athens
Description
Our venue, “The Greek cooking lab”, offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere that feels just like home, located in one of Athens’ most vibrant and historic districts. It's conveniently situated just a short 5-minute walk from the Monastiraki metro station. Your culinary hands-on experience will be guided by an experienced and enthusiastic instructor who brings traditional Greek family recipes to life. After our cooking is completed, you'll enjoy the homemade meal you have crafted, accompanied by a glass of local wine and of course your fellow food enthusiasts (groups are max 8 persons) — no need to worry about cleanup, we’ve got that covered! If you have any dietary requirements (vegetarian, gluten free, allergies), please let us know through the messaging system at least 1 day in advance, as we’re unable to accommodate last-minute requests.

Great experience. This is a very hands on cooking class where everything is made from scratch. Then you enjoy a meal with all the dishes you created. Highly recommended.
Our cooking class with Pavlos was terrific and the best way to end our trip to Athens! He was nice, patient, and knowledgeable. The experience was fun and interactive, and it was great to enjoy the fruits of our labor afterwards. With his guidance, the food turned out delicious. And we plan to replicate the recipes at home for our family that wasn't on the trip with us.
Very lovely and relaxing cooking experience! My husband and I ended up being the only people in this class for the date and time we booked. We had good conversations and learned so many new tricks. We were provided with a brief history of the greek cuisine and where certain dishes come from. We put our aprons on and got to work! We were provided with delicious wine and snacks while cooking as well as olives from their olive tree. Very lovely experience, we were sent the recipes by email. Additionally, the host provided us with easy to follow directions on how to get to our cruise the next day, as well as certain shops to visit in Athens. 10/10 would recommend! Oh, I can’t forget… the food was delicious!!! And since we were the only ones in the class we got so much of it!
This cooking class was amazing and the teacher was so nice! We learned so much about Greek culture and are excited to take home these recipes for our families. You have to do this class!
Clean, modern and genuine space for cooking lovers . Pavlos shares his knowledge & cooking tips generously in a calm and fun atmosphere that infuses much of Greece in the Greek culture in a unique non- touristy experience.
We ended up being the only two people in the class due to being on Easter Sunday. It was very hands on, Pavlos was awesome, it was like we had known one other, the way the conversations flowed easily. He guided us and gave us a little history on Greek food, he also let us taste the olives from his family’s trees. Pavlos and Anna Maria were determined to give us the best experience, and we felt it. The food was delicious, and we got to take the rest with us. Best activity of the whole trip, we would definitely recommend this activity! Oh, he also sent us the recipes and a list of restaurants to try in Athens, we only got to try one of the restaurants because we were short on time, and it did not disappoint.
This cooking class was amazing! Pavlos was an incredible host, and he makes the best Greek food. We learned how to make gyros, spinach pies, milk pies, and briam. He even shares the recipes with you afterward. I would highly recommend this experience on your next visit to Athens!
Mood and trainers were very nice. A great experience and an excellent meal. The market visit was fine, however, no fresh food was bought at the market to cook during the course. Pavlos and Maria were very friendly.
Absolutely fantastic class - we had a semi-private group (3 people) and Pavlos and Anna Maria were wonderful hosts and teachers. We made 5 dishes ans had a little dinner after to eat everything and it was all delicious! I can't speak highly enough of it!
Authentic Greek food and friendly relaxed atmosphere. Pavlos and Anna Marie were wonderful hosts teaching us how to make traditional meals. It was a delicious meal and more than enough food for everyone. Can’t wait to go home and cook for my family!
