These gyros are amazing! I have bought the chicken wrap on multiple occasions, and the quality has been consistent. The veggies are all fresh and the meat is juicy. I also ask for some spice. It comes with seasoned fries as well. Compared to other food shops in the Shambles, this place has the best price/food ratio. I highly recommend this place and will continue to be their customer.

Very authentic and delicious food, verified by my Greek friend. I got a chicken gyro without chips. The chicken was delicious and well served, juicy and tender. The sauce was very balanced and the portion was good.

Came for the food but stayed for the absolutely slamming meal, boss even tried to warn me that I may be ordering too much but as a classic tourist I didn't understand. Still loved the souvlaki platter. As a personal preference I enjoyed it with a peached tea from Pret but this meal would be an incredible two person date experience.
Lovely little bench to sit at but watch out for the birds. They're little rats looking to snatch away this amazing experience.- Price per person

Delicious food in the market. Good value for money and great choice!! I loved the mixed grill but I thought the lamb gyros had too many chips. I think in the future it’s nicer with fewer chips and slightly more meat

Big queues but well worth the wait. Beautiful chicken gyros, decent portion and easy to eat despite looking awkward. A good lunch spot for some street food in York shambles area.
Highly recommend the pork souvlaki and chicken gyros wrap, add some halloumi!!

Arrived at closing hours and couldn't get anything. The legend of the waiter offered us some pita bread that he had left which we thought we had to pay for but he corrected us telling us he would give it to us for free. He even spiced it and put some meat on the side. My mouth still burns from the spicy sauce and I love it. The best meal I have ever had.

Really good and recommend!!! The taste of coffee beans are really impressive so the quality of coffee is perfect. The service is also good and pays attention to details such as holding straws with clips to customers. 😉😉😉
