Trigona Elenidis Centre is a bakery in Thessaloniki.
The central Thessaloniki branch of Elenidis on Tsimiski and Iktinou puts the trigona panoramatos within reach of anyone in the city centre. The format is the same as the Panorama original: crisp phyllo triangles filled to order with cold cream.
Address: Tsimiski and Iktinou 1, Thessaloniki 546 23
Koukos 1953 carries the city's most famous tyropita recipe, brought from the family bakery in Asvestochori to central Thessaloniki by the third generation. The Vogatsikou store across from the Metropolitan Church serves the classic small cheese pies alongside savoury pastries, salads, and desserts. Counter format, open from early morning.
Terkenlis founded by Stavros Terkenlis in 1948, the oldest shop sits at the corner of Tsimiski and Aristotelous and remains the most famous tsoureki source in Greece. The smell from the wood oven during baking is part of Aristotelous Square's morning identity. Chocolate-covered tsoureki, traditional cakes, savoury pies, and ice cream.
The koulouri bakery-cart at Tsimiski 12 is the cleanest version of the city's oldest street food ritual: sesame-crusted bread rings baked from 05:30, warm by 06:00, sold until they run out. Also serves tyropita and spanakopita by the square. Price: around 0.70 euros.
Tragano on Dimitriou Gounari near Navarinou Square bakes some of the city's most reliable koulouri (sesame bread rings) alongside cheese and spinach pies, vegan options, and small filled sandwich-bagels. The wood-oven crisp on the koulouri and the rotating savoury pies have built a loyal queue from breakfast through lunch.
Thanasis on Egnatia is the address for hot galaktoboureko, the semolina custard pastry in crisp phyllo drenched with citrus syrup. Serves a full range of traditional Greek sweets plus loukoumades (honey fritters) on weekends.
Estrella popularised the bougatsa croissant, a cream-filled phyllo-pastry hybrid that sells out before 10am. The full pastry range spans almond croissants, custard danishes, and seasonal fruit tarts. The coffee is specialty-grade. Opens 08:00 daily.
