Nice place to kick back and enjoy the views. Good coffee, fantastic staff. Enjoyed the couple of times I got to stop in.
Nice place with good coffee. The prices a lot better than most places. Funny cups are perfect. The plant decorations on each table is fun and funny :))

Before you go
What to expect
The hum of an espresso machine, the scent of fresh pastry, and a cross-section of Mytilini life — students, commuters, tourists off the morning ferry — all sharing the same counter. Mikel keeps its coffee consistent and its pace unhurried, making it an easy place to sit with a freddo espresso and watch the city move before heading out to the rest of the island.
Best time to visit
Open year-round and good in any season; mornings draw the heaviest local crowd as commuters and ferry arrivals pass through.
How to get there
Mikel is right in the centre of Mytilini, within easy walking distance of the ferry port and the waterfront promenade — no need to drive.

Great coffee. I wish I had the option to drink my coffee in an ordinary coffee cup

Really shocking that they don’t serve coffee in cups when you sit down at the place and only hand out plastic based cups! This practice is criminal even more at an island with all the polluting effects to aquatic life.
