Ergon House

Ergon House opened on Mitropoleos in 2018 — a four-storey concept hotel-and-food-hall by the Ergon brand (the Thessaloniki-founded contemporary-Greek-products group), with a ground-floor produce market, a day-bakery, a modern-Greek dining counter, and twenty rooms above. The format reads as a working version of the Italian Eataly model adapted to the Greek register: the ground floor sells the cheese and olive oil and the dried herbs the kitchen uses; the dining counter at the back runs a breakfast-through-dinner kitchen with the produce read directly from the market. Yazlıkçı readers use Ergon House for the brunch-and-shopping day — Acropolis-walk in the morning, Ergon for late breakfast, take-home cheese and olive oil for the city gift.
