Antonios Food Emporio in Sandwell

A fantastic food and coffee shop where you are made welcome.

A quirky little Greek cafe not far from Bearwood High Street. Tony, the owner, has run some very large Greek restaurants in his time. If you want to experience some excellent Greek home cooking, try this place, and you won't be disappointed.

The perfect combination of cozy atmosphere great food and friendly service

Came across this hidden gem quite unexpectedly whilst house hunting in Bearwood accompanied with my aunt and brother. Not strictly speaking a restaurant but more a cafe/eatery. Weather was nice so we sat out front and it felt like al fresco dining in your favourite uncle's garden. Our lunches were yummy and freshly prepared. The service and meals were homely. Would definitely recommend and return.

Amazing small independent place run by Antonio. I loved the atmosphere and hospitality. Food is very authentic and delicious. Tried all of the mezze and loved everything ❤️🙏

Such a super restaurant. Very laid back and extremely friendly. Food is always of top quality and tasty. Prices are very competitive, definately value for money.

Felt like being in Greece again. Incredibly kind people. Food was amazing. Coffee was incredible. Would reccomend.

What a lovely surprise. We found this delightful little restaurant by accident. We had an absolutely delicious lasagne which came with a great Greek salad followed by a very tasty chocolate cake. Tony is avery welcoming, hospitable and interesting host. I thoroughly recommend this hidden gem.

The best greek food in the area. Wonderful warm service, friendly welcome and an amazing menu.

A charming and unassuming gem of a place! Amazing food and such lovely hospitality :) Warm and friendly, a really nice cosy cafe feel, and on a quiet road. We even bought some more back off the menu which is frozen and I can't wait to try! Not from near this area, was my first time but will hopefully visit again soon, for this place alone

Absolutely loved the food, it was delicious. The service was phenomenal, Antonios is a star, amazing and warm service I'm sad I cannot give it a higher rating. Cannot wait to go back again, thank you Antonios.

Great atmosphere, and Tony is a lovely wonderful host. Delicious authentic food!

Really friendly & great hosting and lovely authentic food

A warm welcome from the master of hospitality himself. Delicious homemade Greek food. Such a gem of a place.

Great food and very friendly service. A little gem of a restaurant in Bearwood.

Live this place. Antonio is such a nice guy and his food is authentic. This is a really nice place in the community

It is a wonderful place with delicious food! Highly recommend it.

Wonderful food served in a peaceful and sunny part of Bearwood. Service is relaxed and friendly. Always enjoy our meals at Antonio's.

The food was cold, pretty certain was served food from the night before. Restaurant and table were dirty and sticky to touch.

Great little local gem. Authentic greek/Cypriot food. Relaxed place & very tasty food, cannot recommend enough

My family and I have visited here a few times now and we have never been disappointed. The food is delicious and authentically Greek. Tony the owner is so welcoming and my little girl just adores him.

Love this place great food and as always Antonio is helpful and really good company going again with the family soon

Can’t get to Greece this year? Not a problem. Just come here and feel like you’re in a Greek cafe. Antonios the owner is amazing. Makes you feel like you’re eating with family and the food is to die for. I’m here on a rainy day but feel like I’m on holiday and having lunch in a traditional cafe. Love the food, love the Mythos, but most of all I’m loving it here.

tasty home made dishes from a charming host

Visited for the first time this evening. Tony the owner is very hospitable and friendly. He offered us a complimentary hot drink upon arrival even though we only wanted a take away. We ordered Stifado and Spanakopita, both were nothing short of fantastic.Every aspect of our visit was brilliant. We spent around 20 minutes just sitting, having a coffee and a good chat with Tony even though our food had been made and bagged up long before then. We cannot wait to return and will be a more than regular visitor.

Lovely food, good value, friendly host

Great little place. Good old fashioned Cypriot hospitality - just like it says 'on the tin'[

Delicious. Tried the Moussaka and the Spinach and feta filo pastry and absolutely loved it. Proper homemade food. We sat outside, had a couple beers and lunch for two. Really nice.

We popped in for lunch and sat outside in the shade to enjoy Tony's feta & spinach pie with salad. Tony is charming, chatty and generous, giving us complimentary tea/coffee and baklava as it was our first visit. It certainly won't be our last! The food was hearty, home-cooked and tasty and the ambiance encouraged us to sit and relax longer than usual.Thanks you, Tony. See you again soon.

We had walked past Antonio's a couple of times and had decided to give it a try. We are really pleased today that we did, because the food was good, honest Greek food and the service friendly and cheerful. The spinach and feta pie was simply delicious, with a lovely fresh salad, and there was a good selection of Greek & Cypriot classic dishes on the menu. He does serve a range of cold drinks, but we settled for orangeade, which camenfeom Cypress. We had some lovely home made baklava to follow accompanied by a decent cup of tea and a nice strong coffee (the drinks were complimentary as it was our first visit!!) Tony even gave us a chocolate! Nothing was too much trouble and this little corner cafe looks like it could become a regular favourite!! A really lovely experience.

So pleased I noticed Antonio's had re-opened for business. Did not have the time to visit on this occassion but just pleased to notice Tony has opened again

I used to love it here the lamb dishes in particular were delicious, friendly service, local clientele. I love greek food and Tony was an excellent cook. Unfortunately it is now closed and i miss it. I did hear that Tony may do some outkside catering but dont know how to get inb touch with him, if anyone hqas his number please pass it on.

I thought it best to let everyone know that at the moment due to a fire this place has been closed for some time. I believe that the owner has a Facebook page so further news may be on there.

Amazing food and Tony is such a lovely man, he welcomes everyone with open arms. My kids never leave his shop without a sweet or a drink given by Tony. Bearwood wouldn't be the same without his café. I am especially a fan of the vegetarian moussaka, the feta and spinach pie and the hummus is to die for. Not to be missed!

Parado en una esquina residencial en el centro de esta es una muy Bearwood 'local'. Atendido por Tony mismo es muy pequeña, con sólo unas pocas mesas pero sirve buena comida griega. Desde un pequeño menú de Tony le dirá lo que tiene hoy y luego entrad en el volver a prepararlo mientras espera. Con el tiempo hemos probado moussaka, souvlaki y pastel de espinacas y queso. Todo muy bonito y auténtico y con buena relación calidad-precio. Mientras tienes un café Tony pueden unirse a usted para charlar. Podría ser mejor para comprobar los horarios de apertura, pero vale la pena una visita.

Me pareció el lugar a través de tripadvisor y fue simplemente perfecto. Tuve la moussaka que venían con una ensalada y fue absolutamente increíble, super sabroso. El propietario es muy amable y te hace sentir como si estuvieras invitado en su casa. Recomendaría el lugar a cualquiera que le guste la comida griega y hogareño. restaurantes secretos de madrugada Gracias Antonio!

An extremely friendly and hospitable owner that clearly loves his neighbourhood [as they love him!]. I had a couple of takeaways that were delicious and extremely good value, felt like I was back in a taverna in Greece. I will definitely be back!

Fuimos allí en el fin de semana y lo que es un lugar precioso. Probamos muchos platos en el menú, todos eran fantásticos. Comí stifado y la carne era 'Melt en la boca". Estaba lleno de sabor y fantástico. Sin duda volveré de nuevo muy pronto. Gracias

De haber estado aquí con mi familia para una comida y comer en recogido mousakka tener en casa, no puedo recomendar este lugar, la comida genial, recogieron los mousakka esta tarde y me sentí como comida con calidad de restaurante en casa. Sirven comida de alta calidad casa griega en todo su esplendor. Antonio es muy amable y generoso más que encantado de charlar así ha sido un increíble cook xx

Fui con mi novia y no podíamos creer que tanta comida que recibimos por el precio!

We ordered some food to go. The lamb moussaka (fresh out of the oven) was the best I have ever had in my life. The owner is really lovely and obviously takes pride his work. Prices are more than reasonable. Will definitely go again!!

En la ventana en este pequeño lugar dice estás comidas para llevar restaurante ' a precios". Es un gran lugar con una selecta carta de platos griegos y chipriotas. Tuvimos el Arni (pierna de cordero a fuego lento en una salsa de tomate), moussaka y espinacas y queso feta (spanakopitta tarta de queso). Esta fue servida con una ensalada pueblo (tomates, lechuga, pepino, cebolla y queso feta en primavera un aceite y limón vestidor), y un plato de patatas. Al principio no podía compensar las mentes sobre si tienen el arni o el stifado (Ternera en vino) así que el dueño, Tony amablemente nos trajo una pequeña muestra gratis para probar también que fuera. No es un lugar para venir si tienes prisa pero más para una comida relajada para saborear la comida y también un lugar perfecto para reunirse a charlar y hacer amigos. Sólo tiene capacidad para 12 personas, pero está ubicado en una esquina y hay un espacio para sentarse fuera.

This is a fantastic little piece of Cyprus/Greece tucked away in (not so exotic) Bearwood. Among the Greek traditional dishes such as moussaka and stifado, you can also get British staples such as sausage, egg and chips. This little place seats about 12 and is fast becoming a favourite with the locals. I had the Beef Stifado, which is a slow cooked meat stew. It was served with chips (I could have had rice) and a salad, with a feta cheese dressing. I would have taken a photograph, but once I tried it, I forgot about pictures and just had to polish it off. It really was an excellent stifado and over the years I have eaten quite a few, in and around Birmingham, and throughout Greece. The owner, Tony, is a reasoned restaurateur and offers unhurried, relaxed, old-world traditional hospitality, that makes you want to go back. I heartily recommend it. I will be going back.

Lovely little homely place, slightly off the beaten track of the main high street. Only about 12 covers but as it's situated on a corner, it is has lots of natural light. The owner, Tony (Antonios) is a great host, in the old unhurried tradition. Had a good time reminiscing about Greek restaurants in Birmingham from the past, and surprised to learn that he had worked at some of the one's I'd been to. I knew I recognised him. To eat, I had a Moussaka with salad, a coffee (with a couple of refills) and a desert of a puff pastry swirl filled with cream cheese, and had change from a tenner. Very reasonably priced. Will definitely be going back to work my way through the menu and practise my Greek. Well worth a visit.

Antonio previously ran several restaurants in Bearwood, so he offers a load of culinary skill, customer service expertise, and fresh tasty food for a great price. The place is 'bijou' in capacity (it can sit 13 at a push) but this is part of its charm. You really get the personal approach here as well, and Tony is always happy to chat to you if you like. Although predominantly offering food retail - both of the Greek food Tony stocks - and the food he cooks, you are welcome to sit and eat there too, (currently only open lunchtime into the afternoon). Not to do the latter would be to miss out. It's worth fitting your schedule around Tony; it's THAT good.Feta and spinach pie, moussaka, beef stifado, greek salad, hummous and pitta bread, huge shiny olives...I could go on. If you like Mediterranean food this should be your Mecca. All of this...for about £11 a head. Antonio's isn't licensed so bring your own drink if you want to. He runs a generous, relaxed establishment - to call it a 'cafe' wouldn't do it justice - that is excellent value. Homecooked food, quality ingredients, excellent value. There are no end to how hard Antonio works to satisfy his customers and he is unfailingly attentive to your every need.If you read my other revues, you will appreciate that I take no prisoners and am rather exacting... Antonio's passes with flying colours for an informal, convivial place for lunch.A great time guaranteed.
