Athanasiou brings a century-old Greek baking heritage to Panama City, where since 2013 it has crafted artisan breads, pastries, and desserts using top-quality ingredients. With several locations around the city, it has become a go-to name for breakfast, brunch, and sweets, blending old-world European craftsmanship with a bright, contemporary cafe experience.
The display cases overflow with temptations, and the kitchen turns out an impressive range under one roof:
The patisserie and chocolaterie in particular have earned a devoted following among the city’s dessert lovers, and the quality and presentation feel a notch above the everyday bakery. The bright, welcoming cafes are comfortable places to linger over a leisurely breakfast or an afternoon coffee.
Athanasiou suits relaxed morning meals, coffee meetings, and picking up a box of pastries or a custom celebration cake to take away. Families, couples, and anyone with a sweet tooth will find plenty to enjoy, and the multiple locations across Panama City make it a convenient stop in several neighborhoods. It is an easy recommendation for both a quick treat and a longer sit-down.
What sets Athanasiou apart is the sense of craft behind the counter: recipes and techniques carried over from a long Greek baking tradition, applied to a menu that spans European classics and everyday favorites. The result is a bakery-cafe that works equally well as a destination for a special dessert and as a reliable neighborhood spot for breakfast or a mid-afternoon pause. Takeaway boxes of pastries and cakes are popular for gatherings and gifts, and the consistent quality across locations has helped build a loyal following throughout the capital.
Yes, there are several Athanasiou locations across Panama City, including in the San Francisco and Obarrio areas.
This location is at Plaza Ledakon on Via Porras in the San Francisco neighborhood of Panama City.
