3 rooftop spots in Glyfada for food, cocktails and sea views

One of the most talked-about arrivals of this summer can be found within the iconic Asteria Glyfadas complex. Asteria Rooftop introduces itself to the public through a minimal architectural approach that naturally interacts with the seaside environment, offering an exclusive deck with unobstructed views of the horizon. The atmosphere here shifts throughout the day, with sunset stealing the show, while the scheduled live music sessions promise to bring a distinctive, laid-back rhythm to summer nights.

When it comes to the menu, the concept clearly revolves around raw and fusion cuisine. The star attraction is the open sushi bar, serving a selection of carefully crafted rolls, including the salmon teriyaki roll with tempura shrimp and flame-seared salmon, as well as the fish of the day aburi roll. The menu also features fine bites such as ceviche with fish of the day and mango, tuna tataki with truffle-ponzu sauce, and crispy tacos with guacamole.

The drinks list follows the same Asian-inspired philosophy and has been curated by Kyriakos Stefanis. The focus is on clean flavors and premium spirits, with options such as Nami No Pandan, which combines white rum with pandan and coconut, and Shiso No Mori, made with gin, shiso, and peach. For those who prefer something more robust, Yami To Hikari blends Japanese whisky with white miso and coffee.

On the rooftop of Ace Hotel & Swim Club Athens, Sora Rooftop Lounge returns fully refreshed for the new season, reaffirming its position as one of the strongest hotspots on the Athens Riviera. It is the ideal place for the moment when the city slows down, offering panoramic views of the coastline and an upper-class lounge aesthetic that attracts those looking for something special.

From Tuesday to Saturday, Sora’s restaurant presents a contemporary interpretation of pan-Asian cuisine through signature dishes, perfectly complemented by exclusive sake labels imported directly from Japan and a carefully curated cocktail menu.

A major emphasis is placed on events overall, as the rooftop hosts atmospheric evenings where natural melodies and live instruments blend with laid-back beats. The cinematic and world music influences of the guest artists combine acoustic and electronic sounds, creating a musical setting that evolves throughout the evening and harmonizes perfectly with the rooftop atmosphere and the view.

The first Terrazza Campari in Greece is now a reality and is housed on the spectacular rooftop of the luxury resort One&Only Aesthesis. The iconic Italian aperitif, globally associated with aperitivo culture and the Italian lifestyle, has created a new premium destination in the heart of the Athens Riviera, welcoming guests from Thursday to Sunday, from 19:30 to 23:00.

The space has been completely transformed to reflect the timeless philosophy and aesthetics of the brand. At its center is a custom-designed bar, inspired by some of Campari’s most iconic pop-up executions worldwide, serving as a meeting point for lovers of Mediterranean elegance.

Terrazza Campari is a contemporary ode to the Italian ritual, offering carefully crafted Campari serves, signature cocktails featuring the familiar bitter notes of the historic spirit, as well as specially designed aperitivo pairings. If you are looking for the perfect place to enjoy the famous golden hour of summer with good company and the sea as your backdrop, you have just found it.
