No more vegan meatballs ☹️

I ordered the vegan meatball souvlaki wrap which was on the menu, but the waiter came back a few minutes later and said they don't sell the vegan meatballs anymore. I opted for the falafel wrap which was ok, but not the same as the meatball wrap used to be amazing. Not sure if this is a nationwide thing or just the Bournemouth branch.

Good Vegan Menu

I’ve been a few times now and always enjoyed the food. The menu offers a wide variety of different vegan dishes and they have a lunch deal which makes things a bit cheaper.

There’s so many choices I won’t list them all but my favourites are the pea fava, and the grilled aubergine. If I’m hungrier I’ll order the Souvlaki wrap with chips.

The portions are fair and I’ve always come away full.

The service can be a bit slow and I hate how close the tables are, I feel like there’s no privacy between tables.

Pros: Wide range of choice, Good, fresh food

Cons: Tables are too close

Good value and variety

Went for lunch and had the vegan plate - nice mezze range including jackfruit and mushrooms in a red wine sauce, a butter bean dish, three dips including humous, flat bread, crudités and a grain based dish.
All very nice and very friendly service. It was a sunny day so we sat outside on the large terrace - could almost have been in Greece!
There were lots of other options on the vegan menu too, would recommend.

Pros: Separate vegan menu , Outdoor terrace , Good value lunch menu

Poor service and served dairy!

Awful service, given spanakopita (feta) even though ordered from vegan menu, I even doubled checked it was what I ordered and was told it was, only on eating it I realised it was dairy... wouldn’t go back! Didn’t even apologise for the error!

Once is not enough

If you are looking for an alternative cuisine to explore, then this restaurant chain is definitely a good place to start. Whilst Greek food is already geared towards vegan dishes, no place in Bournemouth has exploited this fact, until now.

Whilst a few of the dishes were a little overpriced, the variation and quality of the food made up for it. Try to visit with a group and/or an empty stomach: the dishes or numerous and it is difficult to decide which ones not to order.

The place was very busy when we were there, a Thursday evening, so it may be wise to book in advance. The staff were working at a high tempo to accommodate everyone, though it was sometimes a bit difficult to get their attention. Not enough, though, to spoil our overall experience.

Pros: Vegan menu and vegan wines.

Cons: Too noisy.

Poor service

We waited 15 minutes before a waiter came to take our order. Actually, I had to call the waiter so that she comes. Then the food never came... We asked several times what was going on but no clear explanation. After one hour waiting, we decided to talk to the manager who told us we shouldn't be complaining as she had warned that it was a busy evening. In the meantime, a group of 6 people arrived and got served before us. We left before without getting served after more than one hour waiting.

Tapas offerening more than just falafel

I came here with some non vegans and it was great because everyone had stuff to eat. it’s got a wide variety of plant based dishes you may not usually come across. i for one am so bored of a falafel burger and this restaurant provided a tonne of variety. I had the jackfruit souvlaki wrap and it was DELICIOUS. i also had the chickpea filo triangles, hummus dip, crudités and braised artichokes and some green beans. it lists all the calories which is helpful for some and although eating out i felt like i was getting some good nutrition for once as they have so many veggies and vegan power foods! i didn’t get to eat anywhere near enough to have tried the whole menu, so will be going again! the staff were really helpful and kind, and the food was yummy! only negative would be that it wasn’t that cheap.

Pros: large variety, unique options , also serves for non vegans (if going with others)

Cons: not that cheap, also serves for non vegan (can be off putting?)
