Food was ok but the service was terrible. Had the main served while we were still having a starter, then when the starter was finished they refused to clear it up couldn't get the man's attention for a drink as was constantly ignored!! shoved in the corner and left to be ignored so a party of women could be waited on hand and foot. As a gay woman I believe this was the reason for being ignored. Do not go here if you Dont appear as straight

Very clean, good service and a nice atmosphere but staff outnumbered the clients. Mixed grill ok but salad consisted of grated carrot and shredded lettuce. Starter choices a bit limited since last visit.

Very good. Staff were attentive and friendly. Food fresh and quickly served. A bit too many herbs on my salad which overwhelmed the flavour of the salad, but otherwise delicious.

Something's changed? The calamari was like fried rubber bands, the tirokafteri had no chilli and I suspect it was off. Shame that has tainted our opinion of this place

Absolutely lovely Greek restaurant. The three of us had the Mezze Banquet - lots of tastes of different dishes in a stready stream from the kitchen. Absolutely first class - we were very pleasantly stuffed by the end of it. Very nice Greek wine list too which is not expensive! Thoroughly recommended!

Sunday 7th May We'd booked a table for 8, for a big family meal during the afternoon We had a great time, food was delicious & plenty of it. Staff we're great, nothing was to much trouble even with two teenagers ! There was a lovely atmosphere to the place which was only improved by the live music provided in spells across the afternoon. We've been coming here years & it has never let us down & the new menu with new dishes makes us want to come back again & again.

Food was excellent, and too much for some of us. Prices were very fair - eight of us ate main courses and had drinks, including five glasses of wine, £112. Service was friendly and efficient. Would go there again.

Food was great as always at the unspoilt Simply Greek Tavern, along with the fun and welcoming staff. Staff went above and beyond to ensure we were given full attention, especially as it was a Birthday celebration (decorations on the table and complementary cake!!). Would definitely recommend and will be visiting again shortly.

Excellent food & fabulous service from the staff. We used the on line booking service, as the restaurant was closed on Monday when we went to book it. We would definitely recommend the ' Simlply Greek Tarvern', as the food was totally delicious & you'll think your on your Greek holiday again 👍🇬🇷

Have been to The Simply Greek Tavern several times before and really enjoy the food and the general atmosphere, staff are also very friendly and prices very competitive. However on this occasion The Greek Tavern have employed a singer and a pianist, the tavern is not overly large and the music was deafening, it was so bad we had to complain. There were seven of us and none of us enjoyed the evening, totally down to the excessively loud music, we had to shout to make ourselves heard. Sorry to say we will not be returning till this situation is rectified.
