The File

Oven, Voula

Bakery and brunch counter · Vasileos Pavlou 104, Voula

The original Oven, on the Voula avenue. Smaller and plainer than the Glyfada room, with the same bread and the same coffee.

A working café counter: cake domes, a grinder and shelves of equipment against white tile.

Commercial relationship

None. LivingTheta has no commercial relationship with Oven, receives nothing from it, and pays for what it orders.

What it is
Breakfast, brunch, pies, bagels, sandwiches, cakes and cinnamon rolls A couple of cooked dishes appear around midday.
The coffee
Roasted in-house
The others
Oven Manufactory at Glyfada and Sofi’s at Vouliagmeni Sofi’s opened in April 2022 as this room’s "little brother", in NouPou’s phrase.

The first Oven sits on Leoforos Vasileos Pavlou in Voula: a small room doing breakfast and brunch, pies, bagels, sandwiches, cakes and cinnamon rolls, with a couple of cooked dishes around the middle of the day.

What it is for

Proximity. Kavouri has no café of its own at all and Voula’s options are thin, so for a household on that stretch this is the nearest room where the coffee is roasted by the people serving it.

If you want the fuller version — the terrace, the longer menu, the designed room — that is Glyfada, fifteen minutes north.
