Restaurant · Newcastle upon Tyne
Tucked into Grainger Market, this Greek counter turns out food fast enough that a hungry toddler barely has time to unravel — wraps and fries land within minutes, and though there's often a queue, it shifts quickly. Portions are big enough to share, which helps: two people happily split a mixed platter and halloumi bites. The chicken gyros is the thing people come back for, juicy with fresh salad and oregano fries packed inside the wrap, and the special fries have their own following. There's a clean little sit-in area plus stools and tables outside, high chairs, a kids' menu, and room to get a pram in. Vegan options too. The team behind the counter are warm and helpful, though it can get busy enough that you'll wait to be noticed. Only instant coffee, and it's not the cheapest — but regulars call it "a true gem".
A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
