"Love their cakes especially their baklava. Great decor. Shame it's quite expensive given that staff slave away and get paid below minimum wages."

Profiterole, almond cake and coffee $5.40.<br/ I had to ask them whether they got my order right. Where I’m from a coffee costs that much, but you guys are giving me 2 cakes as well?! I love the suburbs and this is a great little cake shop that is obviously great value for money but makes great cakes as well. You can tell by the constant thoroughfare of people coming in, queuing up and moving on. There aren’t many seats so it seems to be revolving door of passers by.<br/ Nice people working here and very patient as they watched my 5 year old try and make up his mind, lol.<br/

The mini assortment of sweets are phenomenal, I get them EVERY Christmas Eve for my party and they are a hit! Two days ago, I thought I would try the cakes, they honestly were not as good as the mixed sweets, the Black Forest and tiramisu were not good. However the cheesecake, carrot cake, chocolate “mice” (not sure why it’s called that) and the ferrero cake were good! I personally would stick to the mini Greek sweets on the top shelf, those are the hit of the show 10/10!

I love popping into Athena Cakes whenever I am in Marrickville. I love grabbing a freshly made spanakopita (pictured) or baklava or a bougatsa (pictured). It’s pastries I would never make at home and they are always consistently good! #athenascaleshop

Yum!. Friendly service, insanely cheap, very sweet little old greek ladies every time I've been in and everything in the shop ranks amongst the best sweets I've ever eaten.
