It is a place for every time of day, offering quality Hausbrandt Gourmet Columbus coffee, brunch, lunch, drinks and a bar experience .

There is also a selection of signature cocktails , featuring distinctive combinations and imaginative names that reflect the creativity behind the menu. What really makes Kerouac special is the combination of its architecture, interior design, atmosphere, food, coffee and bar . It is not simply a place to eat or have a drink, but somewhere to enjoy the whole experience. Definitely one of the places worth visiting in Alexandroupoli.
