Mappemonde Restaurant Bar-Lounge
Mappemonde Restaurant Bar-Lounge is a restaurant with a bar and roof terrace in Athens. The space combines dining, cocktails, and a lounge area all elevated above street level.
Rooftop bars emerged in Athens over recent decades as the city modernized and looked for new ways to use urban space. This trend reshaped how people spend evenings throughout the city.
The place reflects contemporary Athens bar culture, where locals and visitors gather on rooftop terraces as evening falls. It shows how the city has moved its social life upward, away from street level.
The venue sits on a rooftop, so you'll need to go up stairs or an elevator to reach it. Evening is the best time to visit when it functions as a bar and social space.
The name Mappemonde refers to ancient world maps, connecting to the overview that height provides. From this elevated spot, you can see the city spread below you, much like viewing it from a map.
