Figure 18- Possibility of ordering soft drinks with stevia at coffee shops or bars

The majority of Greek consumers (77) believe that soft drinks in places like coffee shops or at bars are expensive. This can be confirmed due to the fact that in recent years, taxes of Greek governments were increased and consequently, prices in coffee shops and bars were also increased. However, this is not only the basic reason, since Greek coffee shops and bars have not fixed price. For example, in the same city, a bar may sell o soft drink 3 euro and another 5 euro.
