Cafe Sofi is a deeply personal project by Natasha and Savva Sideris, founders of Tashas Group, created as an ode to their beloved mother, Sophia Electra.

It’s a space animated by memory, layered with personal history, and inspired by a woman of beautiful contradictions: a conservative soul wrapped in eccentric packaging, an old-school romantic with an eclectic spirit.

From wholesome breakfasts like spiced milk oats with maple syrup and a cheeky shot of whiskey, to vibrant plates such as grilled salmon with honey-mustard dressing, or delicate crab cakes with citrus mayo, the offering balances simplicity with soul. Each dish is a nod to Sophia’s favourite food and a true reflection of comfort, similarity and honest flavour.


Perfect for every meal, from breakfast to dinner, Cafe Sofi embraces the space’s quirks. It is smaller, more intimate, with a curated menu drawn from Sophia’s favourites.

    10/10 for sure - we just asked the waiter to bring us a small cube of ice for our red wine as it was quite warm and not the correct temperature for red wine. But that is just minor feedback, the experience was amazing and the food delicious. Thank you!

    We loved our experience at Cafe Sofi. The attention to detail on Valentines weekend with the flower balloons was so special. The service was impeccable, all staff were so friendly, engaging and attentive. Keep coming back to this beautiful space and food.
