Santorini Express in South Tyneside

We've visited a couple of times when in the area. The food has always been of good quality and well presented. The decor has changed since we last visited which is tasteful and in keeping with the theme.

Waited over 20mins for our order, after being told the order we wanted wasn’t available. Not good service. Delivery was put before us.

I’m not sure what has happened with Santorini express… it used to be amazing but we have had two terrible take away in a row now. We ordered gyros boxes. We were told on collection the food would probably be cold because it was made a while ago…. We ordered for 7pm and collected at 7pm. When we got home the food was cold, soggy and dry. There was no tzatziki at all as advertised on the menu. It was borderline inedible. Sadly we won’t be returning.

Please ignore the poor reviews. We visited here on Saturday afternoon and both ordered the Skepasti.Mine was with chicken and halloumi,red onions,tomatoes and home made tzatziki and my husband had the chicken and lamb mix with chips. Lovely friendly and quick service.Excellent value. If we didn’t live over an hour away we’d be back every week !

A small cage that serves very tasty food at good low prices. Beautifully grilled meats and fresh salads , served ever so quickly by a friendly owner.

Shocking food, had 2 giro boxes of chicken and pork delivered which was inedible... meat and chicken was rock hard as it was obviously reheated and included burnt pitta breads... absolutely disgusting.. don't order... Greek / meditteranean they are definitely not!!!!!.... would not even class them as professionals! Absolutely terrible....

Me and my family had the most delicious Greek gyros. The staff was very friendly and very nice. We tried even the homemade baklava which was amazing. Definitely will come back soon.

Really tasty food and friendly staff. Also good value for money. I had the chicken and Shuka gyros wrap.

We went for a quick lunch and we were surprised by the portion sizes and the quality too. The service was next great too and we will definitely return.

Amazing quick lunch with Greek street food, soooooo tasty filling and time and cost efficient for a quick lunch.

We decided to give it a try and glad we did, tasty Greek gyros, good size and friendly staff to. The price was very reasonable and we will be back.

Fresh food and friendly service. Great with kids too which is a big plus and I was happy that I could practice my Greek with them.

Best Greek food in Harrogate! And friendliest staff. Every time food is amazing and guys are fantastic

Boxed gyros missing half of the stated ingredients. We received bland chicken (not gyros) no tsatsiki no salad items and the chips were raw. Waited 30 mins for privilege.

Awful food, very dry and lacked any flavour. Turned up on time to be told there was an issue with their order system so they’d only just started our order and to come back in 10mins. Ordered Baklava online but told none available on collection, unable to refund as the assistant said he didn’t know how to refund! So had to pick one of the cakes on the counter instead, which turned out to be three day old stale Chocolate Orange cake! For something that was supposed to be cooked fresh it was pretty obvious it wasn’t despite our extra wait. Gyros were greasy and flavourless. The Kofta Gyro , turned out to be 3 lamb burgers, was really lacking in flavour - meant to be spicy but no spice at all and so dry. Chips were soggy. We had chicken pork and lamb… all overcooked. Salad consisted of a few pieces of onion and cucumber. Waste of money and would not recommend. Go somewhere else … anywhere would be better

Stopped by after few drinks in the near bar. Th food was delicious. Freshly cooked and lots of flavours. Ideal after a great night out. There’s a bar next door who’s part of the same company. Highly recommended it

Wanted to get in a holiday mood for Rhodes next day. Feeling peckish and opted for The Chicken Gyros. Just the right portion. Very tasty and great value for money. Only negative they had no Greek Coffee that evening. Recommended otherwise. Linked to a Bar next door.

Total gem of a place, just up from the Royal Hall and Convention Centre. Stop here for a bite before your show. Cheap, cheerful and totally lush. Son had the burger, the rest of us had the wraps, slouvaki, pork and chicken. Great presentation in a coned wrap, including chips. Fabulous service. Highly recommended

I have visited and highly recommended this place over the last couple of years. It looks like they have purchased the building next to the original takeaway and called it Best Bar. There is a serving hatch between the buildings if you want to eat in the Bar. Popped in with the family around 1800hrs. Nice and quiet and we sat in a booth in the Bar. We ordered some drinks and food. Waited over an hour and was told they have forgotten our order, kids were starving!!! Then they brought the kids food (chicken gyros wrap and lamb kofte wrap) Inedible! Got up and walked out! This was seriously the best place for gyros I have ever been. I really hope they address the issues they are having and turn the place back around again 🥲

Having made the decision to get a takeaway here as we drove past to our hotel, we checked out the Google reviews and pictures and all seemed well... ...online. In reality, the pictures definitely are not a true representation of what's on offer. Firstly, the...

Santorini Express Perfect place to be happy, Eat with love, good menu and best Price, can't wait to come

The best gyros I have had outside of Greece. Everything cooked fresh and taste delicious. Staff very friendly too. Will be back. Recommended!

Great food at great price! Been here many times now at it never dissapoints! This is absolutely the best greek street food in town, love this place

Didn't have the food we ordered ( we weren't told beforehand that things we're off the menu). Made a second choice ( a set combo of hot dishes, but they didn't have one of those either. Didn't have the wine we wanted. Toilets out of...

Many friends in Harrogate are highly impressed by the enthusiasm and quality shown here in this business. We by accident saw this and called one hour before the initial opening the new establishment in Parliament Street looks great had a time scale so regretfully could...

For authentic Greek food on the go, This little eaterie is ideal. Always dubious of Greek Restaurants in The UK promising the real deal.... But this isn't bad at all. ( Just needs proper Beef Tomatoes in the Greek Salad because that's what You get...

What an amazing caffe and/or fast food place. They are based right in the middle of town and very authentic too.

I’m local and I’ve heard really great reviews and was excited to try it, but it didn’t live up to the expectation. Chicken pitta basically consisted of a lot of chicken skin, a tiny slice of tomato, some tzatziki and not much else. Extremely disappointing....

Visited after Turkish bath session, this little cafe bar serves excellant authentic Greek food, in a very clean enviroment, served and cooked by friendly staff. Cooked fresh to order, minimum waiting time, we would recommend this place on your visit to Harrogate, thank you

Came upon this absolute gem out of the blue. My wife and myself were starving and popped in to eat. The Greek food was so authentic and very well cooked. I had a Kofta Gyro and my wife a Mixed Souvlaki Gyro, both were cooked...

This is the best Greek food I’ve ever tasted outside of Greece, amazing service especially by Hannah. Would highly recommend.

Stopped here for a quick lunch and had the hot meze for 2. Food was authentic, delicious and came with friendly service. We loved it that much that we also decided to visit their big brother restaurant during our stay Would definitely recommend

All I can say is “WOW” What amazing food, honestly the best Gyros I have ever tasted. Will definitely be going back. Service was excellent, portion size was enormous.

Called in after a night away in Harrogate, we had contemplated having our evening meal in one of the "well known" chains in Harrogate, but opted for a few well deserved beverages first. On our way back to the hotel we spotted Santorini Greek take...

The service here was excellent and the food was absolutely delicious. Was in town for just a day visit and found this place by chance, would definitely be a regular for us otherwise!!

This is the best Greek gyro place I have ever tried in the UK and by far better then most places in Greece too. The fact is that their gyros are almost double the size of what you get in Greece and the taste is...

Went in August 2021. Staff were friendly for takeaway. However, portions for the price are very small. Tasty enough but disappointing small. Also, I had part of my order missing but by the time I was home it was too late to go back and...

Really amazing food! Takes us right back to holidays in Greece. Super quick and fresh - top tier takeaway. Highly recommend the hummus

We visited here yesterday and found the food delicious. We had lamb kofta wraps and fries. The service was definitely express and food cooked fresh. The staff were extremely polite. Will visit again when we are in Harrogate.

Just had the most delicious takeaway delivered by Santorini Express. Arrived early and still hot. Big portions, well cooked and actually tasted like Greek food - very authentic! As it was payday weekend we went big on our order having Halloumi Saganaki, Spanokapita, 2 x...

Had our first taste of these amazing gyros today, and they didn’t disappoint. My hubby had the Kofta wrap and I had a mixed box of Chicken and Halloumi. Portions were great, the food was still warm when we got home. Would definitely go back...

Ordered at 6:42pm, delivery was supposed to be 7:40; when I called at 7:58 to find out where it was, they advised just about to start the order now. Amazingly it turned up at 8:12! So nearly 90 minutes is shocking!! Then after delivery we...

Ordered thru just eat. Waited 75 mins Rang to explore where the food was. The restaurant was rude on the phone & started making excuses. Cancelled order. Very disappointing as menu looked great.

Disgusting food served from this place. Lamb kofta obviously cooked on the same grill as the fish (I don’t eat fish). The chicken and pork gyro was fatty and gristly and topped with old refried chips. All in all, a very disappointing experience, one I...

Sadly lacking in flavour, dried out meat and negligible salad and tzatziki. Very disappointing first order. The boxes seem to be a better experience than the wraps.

Absolutely gorgeous food - we go here every week for our weekend takeaway and are never disappointed. We both have the chicken gyros wrap and it’s delish - great value and even accommodated for my picky eater syndrome! Cheers guys

So disappointed by lack of seasoning, flavour. Gyros were basically chips on a pitta. Won't be going near there again.

Such gorgeous food, quick delivery and really fresh & great portion size. Have reccomended to lots of friends who also love it. Highly reccomend

The halloumi wrap was fine, but the Chicken and pork gyros was really bland and very over priced for the portion size. I've had gyros many times abroad and this was nothing like the real thing. Also took an hour and a half from ordering...

Chicken gyro pitta box was disgusting half of the chicken was fat/skin. Also the salad was so small you would struggle not to eat it in one fork full. For the price we paid well I was shocked never again will I get food from...

I was keen to try Santorini Express after seeing their Instagram posts. Whilst the delivery was bang on time, the food was on the whole, really underwhelming. Whilst the pitta breads are really nice, the chicken souvlaki was stodgy, bland, and with no real discernible...

After reading reviews that they’d had issues the week before with the ordering system, we decided this was something out of their control, and so we ordered a takeaway to be delivered. We ordered on line and was given a time of 1 hour later....

Really nice food. Soft pitta, amazing tzatziki, lovely baklava and quick delivery. Will be going back!

I have ordered from here three times now since they have opened, each time the food has been fantastic, authentic Greek. I highly recommend the Gyro's as a wrap. On one of these occasions there was an issue with the delivery timeslot (allocated by the...

Had high hopes as I love Greek food so was excited to try it, I could have chosen 7:00 or 7:40 delivery time, I choose 7:00, it arrived 7:35 which is pretty rubbish, what's the point of offering slots if you simply ignore them. The...

Ordered a delivery shortly after 5pm booked for 7.40. When it finally arrived at 8.45 the food was seriously underwhelming. The starter was good both of our mains were small stodgy and lacking any redeeming features. Luckily they also deliver legit halloumi so hopefully that...

Deliver food on time not 1 hr late Deliver food that is hot & edible Deliver food that comes as stated on menu Answer your phone Never again & yes we know what we are on about been in catering for 35 years would never...

Have just finished a lovely Gyros box. It was delicious. We ordered it to takeaway. We had various- pork, chicken, halloumi and kofta. Couldn’t fault it.

My wife and I popped in on Tuesday evening for something to eat, and to see what Yannis' new venture was like - we weren't disappointed! The place itself is quite cosy, but still enough seating (in non-Covid times) for half a dozen tables. All...

Yannis and the team from Mykonos Bar & Grill have just opened their new fast food place, at the most 10 minutes walk from the original restaurant. Santorini Express is cosy, serving traditional Greek gyros, homemade burgers, Greek dips and homemade desserts, to name a...
