Incredibly kind staff, Maria was lovely to us. Calm and fresh atmosphere with peaceful background music. Last but not least the food and drinks are not to overlook! I recommend the buttermilk chicken nuggets which were to die for! The desserts were delicious as well, loved the walnut pie. The drinks are great, the ice tea isn’t too sweet which I loved! Stop by here if you’re ever in Patmos.

Was such a wonderful place for breakfast. Super chic with great food and incredible coffee. The overnight oats are one of the most unique things I've ever had.

Stopped by for food and tea, but what truly made the experience was the service. The chicken burger was excellent, the spices were different in a really good way. The unsweetened hibiscus green tea was perfect, and I finished with a matcha latte. What stood out most was the server, a great smile, genuine warmth, and attentiveness without hovering. Even after I had finished eating and paid, I moved to a table by the water just to sit for a bit, and he still came over to bring me a bottle of water. Many places wouldn’t even bother once the bill is settled. That’s Patmos hospitality at its best. Quiet, generous, and human.

At Aetherion you will find the most ideal place for coffee, brunch but also for something lighter, such as a club sandwich, burger or salad, it is the ideal choice. From the desserts, the walnut pie with ice cream and kaimaki stood out, simply fantastic! The service was impeccable, and the view is priceless, as the shop is literally on the wave. An experience that is worth it, mainly for the atmosphere and the excellent hospitality.

We enjoyed lunch here on 2 occasions whilst on Patmos, down on the beach. All the dishes we had were delicious and finely crafted. Particularly the pasta. Can highly recommend.

We tried the pastichio and the fried chicken burger at Aetherion and both were really yummy. The pastichio was comforting and full of flavor, with fried onions that gave it that real ummph. The chicken burger was crispy and juicy, and the fried potatoes on the side were amazing. Chill atmosphere and great service.
