seating

OUR AWARD WINNING TAVERNA


Small and cosy is the only way to describe ‘Zorba The Greek’ seating up to 40 people. With the vibrant blue & white colour scheme, Greek Island atmosphere and traditional Greek mouth watering dishes, you will be transported to a place you once were (or want to be) on one of the amazing Greek islands.

Zorba The Greek is a down to Earth, Greek village style ‘Taverna’ with a pleasant traditional Greek homely feel. We pride ourselves on our excellent freshly cooked meals and our overwhelmingly successful ‘MEZE’ but don’t take our word for it, come and see for yourselves why we are winning awards and are the talk of the town.

ONLY THE BEST


Enjoy mouth-watering, good, healthy, wholesome meals which have been prepared with love and care with only the finest and freshest ingredients. The great taste of the Mediterranean is now on your doorstep. Whether you are a meat eater, vegetarian, or vegan, we aim to always accommodate your diet. From the classic Moussaka to freshly made Souvlaki (marinated and grilled cubes of meat – Pork/Lamb/Chicken) or the exquisite taste of Kalamari (Fried Squid) and let’s not forget the unbeatable Horiatiki (Greek Salad) with Feta Cheese and Greek Olives… lip smacking, finger-licking, mouthwateringly good!
