Thank you for your contribution. You've taken a huge step to making Povo the "word on the street,"
and we appreciate it very much. Because of the complexity of the "wiki text" and code that can be used
on Povo, in order to edit this section in the future you must click the "edit" button to the right of the section
heading (or for the whole page).
Established in 1938, Athan's has become a Washington Sq. stalwart. Athan's bakery is a copy of the Athan's bakery in Kalamata, Greece. Serving up European cakes, biscuits, and desserts, Athan's now draws its clientele from the entire Greater Boston area. While a couple of small tables provide seating for about 6-8 people inside the store, the bulk of customers come in for take-out orders of Greek, French, German, and Italian cakes and baklava. Cake portions (beautifully decorated and great for special guests) are usually $4: the Amendoa (vanilla genoise and bavarois with almonds) stands out as being especially delectable and rich, yet light. Athan's also stocks great gelato in a wide variety of flavors ($2-4 for scoops, $7 for quarts). With 48 hours notice, the bakery will also provide custom cakes for birthdays ($25-90).

Sometimes street view does not point exactly to the right place. You may need to "drive around" a bit.
