If you’ve ever sunk your teeth into a juicy gyro or inhaled a smoky souvlaki wrap from Going Greek, you might have wondered: “How can something taste THIS good?” Spoiler alert: it’s not magic (though it’s close). It’s the proud, sun-drenched spirit of Kefalonia making its way straight to the bustling streets of London.

At Going Greek, we don’t just serve Greek street food; we serve edible memories from our island roots. So grab a napkin (or five) and let’s take you on a little flavour journey from Kefalonia to London.

The Roots: Island Life on a Plate In Kefalonia, food isn’t just food — it’s family, it’s celebration, it’s “YiaYia’s” secret recipes whispered across generations. Every gyro, every souvlaki skewer you taste at Going Greek carries that rich tradition and family heritage. We’re talking about ingredients picked at their prime, grilled over an open flame, and seasoned with a “just right” heavy hand of wild oregano and sea salt.

The Ingredients: Fresh, Honest, Legendary We take our Greek food seriously (but not ourselves, don’t worry). Our meat is marinated the old-school way — overnight, patiently, passionately. The tomatoes? Ripe enough to make your London winter feel like a Mediterranean summer. The pita? Fluffy, warm, and basically begging for tzatziki.

And speaking of that heavenly tzatziki — it’s made the way our Kefalonian grandmothers intended: thick Greek yogurt, crisp cucumber, garlic that could scare off vampires, and a squeeze of lemon sunshine.

The Street Food Vibe: Greek Soul, London Swagger London’s street food scene is vibrant, fast-paced, and wildly delicious — just like a bustling Greek agora (market). We knew this city would love our laid-back, flavour-packed street food style. Our gyros and souvlaki fit right into the London rhythm: grab it, love it, devour it.

The Flavours: A Little Bit of Island Sun in Every Bite When you bite into our chicken gyro or lamb souvlaki, you’re not just getting a meal; you’re tasting the lemon groves, the mountain herbs, and the salty sea breeze of Kefalonia. It’s honest food, full of heart — with a wink and a nudge to keep things fun.

From Kefalonia, With Love

At Going Greek, we’re proud to bring a piece of our island paradise to the streets of London. Our mission? To fill your hands with the best Greek street food you’ve ever had and leave your heart a little fuller, too.

So whether you’re a lifelong lover of Greek food, a street food adventurer, or just someone who knows a good gyro when they see (and smell) one — welcome to the family. London, we’re here, we’re Greek, and we’re grillin’.
