    Really nice to see new restaurant with excellent food open in this part of town. We tried a few different things here and really enjoyed it. The cottage cheese and spinach pie really stood out though. The pastry was fluffy and there was some lemon type flavours coming though that were a pleasamt surprise. I had an iced cupachino which was nice and strong. I started getting a good buzz off it half way through! For desert there was a lemon pie which was a different to anything I've had before and had an interesting texture. The only caveat to this place is that it's a bit cramped. Would be nice to have a more quite space to enjoy the food.

    Great place for a great Greek coffee and the best in Glasgow. Food fantastic food Greek pies with feta cheese and spinach. And have a look at the menu for a main course for to eat and special meals of the day. What ever you have is very good indeed and the staff are excellent and very friendly. Andrea Kontou is the best friend to help you deside what you are looking for to eat. Your Your day and what ever you have you will return there again for more again and again the food is so good. Enjoy Kafeneio Greek experience with ease and you will be back there again and very tasty and grateful for dining there in the first place.

    Loved it here food was so tasty. Cafe owner was happy for a chat and a laugh. Everything was cooked fresh that we ordered or was made that day. Cypriot cuisine done well and kept to tradition. Recommended for a quick bite. A good amount of seats. Your order might take a bit of time however theres chess if it's taking long.

  • 5/5 Nurseit N. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place for lovers of authentic little family owned restaurants and eateries. Loved the taste of Cyprus here and enjoyed quite some chat with Andreas who is the owner. Talked about politics etc. place loved by ethnic Greek and Cypriots. Though it is outside the city Centre it is still quite little cosy and friendly place that I will sure recommend.

    Food is delicious and you get so much for your money. The service was lovely as well. There's a bit of a wait for the food being cooked but it's 100% worth it as everything is made fresh to order. 🤤

  • 5/5 Karen R. 1 year ago on Google
    So pleased to have discovered this place! Delicious gyros and coffee, and most of the customers were speaking Greek which made it extra fun. The staff was super friendly, just all-round good vibes. We'll be back!

  • 5/5 Linda G. 1 year ago on Google
    Popped in for a bite after seeing the place on Sunday whilst at the soft play nearby. Owner was so friendly and welcoming, spent 3 years in Cyprus and the food here was like a trip down memory lane. Freshly cooked ( proper chips 👍) food and a rather fantastic frappe. I will be back that's a certainly. Thank you 😊

    First time ordering. Had.pork gyros, mixed grill and Spanakopita pastry. All delicious, the tsatziki was amazing. Will order again next week.

    What a fabulous find! I needed catering for a birthday party & came across this little gem on Instagram. They delivered the most amazing veggie buffet for 20 people, the food was incredible - really tasty & easy to just pop into the oven. Everyone commented on the food saying how wonderful it was. Such good value too - and the portions really generous. Thanks Alex & Valantis, you guys are amazing!

    Amazing value, great food prepared with love. Excellent service and staff very friendly. Would recommend really worth a visit or takeaway

  • 5/5 Lana 1 year ago on Google
    Came her for a Greek night and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Place is nice, cosy, warm and welcoming. Service is exceptional. Live music is absolutely amazing. Food was very good and so many varieties. Unfortunately for us syvlaki came out around 10pm and for us that was a bit too late, but we took it home and enjoyed it the next day. I would definitely recommend this place and we'll be back for sure 👍 ÎĩĪ…Ī‡ÎąĪÎšĪƒĪ„ĪŽ

    Extremely hospitable and friendly guys, with very, very tasty food. A truly authentic Cypriot restaurant with all the comforting vibes you'd expect from a small Mediterranean family business run with passion and love. I mean, the food is really, really good! Such a great surprise, and so worth going on an adventure to find it!

    Business hours not updated. After an hour of walking, we were disappointed to have wasted our Sunday. Sorry but there are definitely more trusty Greek businesses in the area.b

    Found this wee gem today.. tried food to take home.....delicious! Moussaka transported me straight to Greece (or Cyprus!) and the feta spinach pie was to die for. My first visit but by no means my last! Lovely owner too.....we will be back and try desserts too next time as they also looked fab! ?

    This is my new favourite place. Amazing mains and amazing desserts. Friendly owner. The Pastitsio was my favourite and the lemon cake was to die for - oozing and spongy.
