The Athenian in Bristol, City of

El personal siempre está encantado de ayudar y adaptarse a cualquier necesidad dietética. Mi pequeña quería patatas fritas y siempre nunca es un problema y todo el mundo es tan servicial. La comida era fresca, caliente y hermosa como siempre. Gracias de nuevo : )

Este lugar solía ser genial - mi lugar favorito al lado del puerto. Realmente se ha deteriorado - comenzó donde las órdenes de Deliveroo estarían claramente equivocadas, tuve una donde faltaba la mitad de la comida, una donde tenía una pita en lugar de una caja, faltan chapuzones. Varias veces tuve que quejarme a Deliveroo y obtener un reembolso. Así que dejé de pedirlo a través de Deliveroo, ya que simplemente no era confiable. Desafortunadamente la comida ahora se ha deteriorado mucho incluso cuando vas a la tienda real.

Este lugar solía ser una de las joyas de Wapping Wharf y he sido un cliente habitual durante años, pero se ha deteriorado hasta el punto de que no me molestaré en visitar de nuevo. Poco a poco se ha vuelto más y más sucio y necesita una limpieza/refresco a fondo. Durante la pandemia la tienda se convirtió en máquina -servicio- solamente, por lo que ya no hablas con nadie que haga la comida -es como McDonalds-. También hay ahora un mostrador extraño frente a la cocina que hace que toda la zona sea estrecha y desordenada; presumiblemente es para dar servicio a la cola de conductores de Deliveroo. La última vez que lo visité habían quitado el halloumi (la única opción vegetariana) del menú, sustituyéndolo por pollo falso. Presumiblemente esto es para atender a los veganos, pero un restaurante griego sin halloumi es un mal restaurante griego imo. Cerdo, pollo o pollo falso son ahora las únicas opciones. Los precios han subido significativamente, el esquema de lealtad fue enlatado, nada parece tan fresco como solía, etc etc etc. Solo miré un mapa y vi que ahora hay docenas de restaurantes en la cadena. Eso lo explica. Las eficiencias han matado este lugar. La OMI debería abandonar Wapping Wharf y convertirse en repartidor, solo para que un lugar mejor pueda ocupar su lugar. Vergüenza masiva.

El personal era tan agradable! Nos ayudan a explicar las salsas y los diferentes platos. Super sabroso y un montón de opciones veganas! ¡Me encanta! ¡Volvería seguro!

The staff are always on hand to help with allergies and any changes you would like made on your order. The portions were massive and everything was cooked to order and fresh plus super hot. The chicken tasted beautiful and the chips were lovely along with the dips etc.

The machines to order on were easy to use and clean. I had a gyro which was okay but wasn’t as tasty as I was expecting and wasn’t that much filling considering the price. The gyro came out quick and was warm. Wasn’t the best gyro but I’m sure it’s also not the worst in Bristol.

What's happened. Been coming here on and off for a few years now. Food was awful, had the large Gyros. Wrap was dry and contents not very tasty and chips were also dry. Food was Luke warm as well. Also where have the Greek beers gone? Also we wanted to pay in cash but were refused. Cash is still legal tender by the way and we should be given the option of paying this way. Very disappointing. On the plus side staff were very helpful assisting us on the order machine.

This place used to be incredible. Not any more! Dry, reheated food with loads of paprika to try to mask the blandness of the food. Barely anything in the gyros or their box meal. I would never come back to this spot and would definitely recommend you having any other food anywhere else than this awfully prepared meal!

This place used to be amazing but our food this time was not. The chicken was tiny pieces and so dry. The rest was just a wet and sloppy mess and to top it off - it was stone cold.

Such a shame that our food wasn't as good as it used to be! We even used Athenian to cater for our lock down wedding! We emailed recently regarding missing items to an online order but didn't hear anything back! A waste of nearly £50!

When this place first opened it was amazing! Tasted just like the gyro you can get on the streets of Athens. No Le it’s become bigger, the once crispy chicken is kept warm in a pan. And the gyro is absolute slop in a pita. The last two times I have been it’s been like this, I thought I would give them one more chance incase it was a one off. But now, save your money until they improve the food.

The reviews looked good, but our lunch was vile. The chicken was similar in shape and size to wood chips. The meat had no recognisable grain and was a worryingly pallid beige. Definitely not breast or thigh meat. I think it was Mechanically Recovered Meat that had been reconstituted with dollops of pork fat. And very expensive. A never again.

Food is really good and service very fast. It feels like you are in Greece with good food. Place is well situated in Bristol and not too expensive. Would recommend

Not that great, first you have to order it yourself with a horrible self order system, then you relies that many of the things are not in the menu, the quality of meat is very poor, old dry meat, and then to top it all it’s rapped so bad it all falls out when you open it, I would avoid, plenty of other places to eat in the area.

Used to be regulars here but hadn’t been for some time due to trying out some of the newer openings in the area Was initially ignored on entering the store in a Sunday early afternoon, stood there for sometime- as staff talked amongst themselves and continued to not appear to notice me-before feeling uncomfortable so tried to order using the QR code. Was unable to use NHS discount this way so asked male staff member who I had noticed there before so wasn’t new- he shrugged and said he didn’t know how to apply It. He Advised me to wait for the manager and gestured towards a lady who was on the phone. Waited a further 10 mins and the lady was lovely and ordered for me etc. food wait was then 45 minutes I was told. Others came in for refunds while I waited as the online order system told them 5-10 mins not 45. After such a wait had high hopes but found that *the portions are pretty small for the price compared to other businesses in the area ( (one sad olive In the very little Greek salad ) *vegan gyros recipe changed and it’s a total downgrade Add to this the slow disinterested service I probably won’t bother going back sadly

Having previously been here before, I have enjoyed the food they serve here. However, last weekend didn't quite match the standards they set. I appreciate that it was a busy time, but to wait 40 minutes for two boxes was excessive to say the least. To then be charged in excess of £20 for what was a disappointing meal didn't help either. I appreciate that everything has been difficult the last two years, but the service and quality left a lot to be desired. There is such good quality in Wapping Wharf and I hope this was just a momentary blip.

We got a deliveroo delivery from here as we fancied something different and that reminded us of our holidays. Gosh it was good! Simply done souvlaki which was customised (no raw onions for me!) and also came with some free cocktail samples which were really good. It was super tasty and we'll definitely order again. Tip: pop the oven on; we are a bit far away and like our food hot, so we popped everything in the over for 5 mins and it warmed and crisped up nicely.

Disappointed overall, however the courgette fritters were very good. Having experienced some really good Greek restaurants and Gyros when we lived in Germany, this place really isn’t living up to what they advertise.

I ordered via Deliveroo as I was staying for a couple of nights in Bristol. The food was delivered quickly and really well wrapped up. Still absolutely deliciously tasty despite transport. Would love to order direct from the unit in Cargo 2 if I had the time.

Ordered takeaway and paid £2.70 extra for a chicken souvlaki salad and ended up with half the amount of food compared to my friends who ordered standard wraps. I received a small box with a small akount of salad, one tiny piece of chicken but loads of halloumi and no sauce despite ordering one. I feel completely ripped off and won't be getting food here again.

My partner had previously tried to order a takeaway from The Athenian however it didn’t turn up. She decided to try again using the credit that Deliveroo had kindly provided. This time the takeaway turned up however I was soon wishing that it hadn’t. My...

Placed an order with the Athenian on Too Good to Go. Walked there, picked it up. Could see there were a fair few boxes there waiting to be picked up too. When I got home I opened it to see a shockingly poor portion of...

Highly recommend the vegan offerings from The Athenian - even my omnivore partner found it very tasty. The vegan halloumi fries and courgette fritters are a must on the side! We had a take away so can't comment on the restaurant ambience etc, but hope...

Assuming you need to live it up with your better half or spouse, then, at that point, I prescribe this café to you. The food here is exceptionally scrumptious and new, the staff is in every case fast and promptly reacts to every one of...

I love this restaurant. All the time we come here with family or companions. The servers consistently welcome you with a grin. The menu is excellent; the photos as of now make you slobber. Also, it mustn't be costly, and it's made of value and...

The best wraps in bristol. My family and I love The Athenian. Absolutely great Greek food. We recommend 100%.

Today we arrived at the restaurant, for the second time, and was attended by a gentleman called Daniel. He attended us very well and polite also being kind and happy to work there. The food was wonderful and came to us quick and would recommend...

I kept giving them the benefit of the doubt, "maybe it's just because they were busy" or "maybe they just had a bad day today" but they have been consistently bad for the last few years. I have on occasion had my arm twisted into...

Ordered the fake meat gyros so many times now and I'll never get bored because it's the best thing ever created. The athenian sauce is amazing The fries are amazing The fake meat is amazing They are good on deliveroo too - wrapped up properly,...

very disorgansied, poor communication and general chaos whilst ordering. Waited for more than 45miuntes for a simple haloumi wrap. People before me were asking for refunds so it was not just us. Can't fault the food but i would not come back due to this...

I hardly ever write reviews however had to for this as it was so shocking. £8 for a small, cold piece of meat on a stick! A few chips, a standard lettuce and tomato salad. Really dissapointing and the chips tasted like they'd come out...

I’ve wanted to try here for a long time so all in all I am really glad I went. The service was prompt and friendly but not over and above. I had the Chicken super wrap and it was tasty - soft bread and I...

Really poor quality. Ordered 2 souvlaki wraps. Both pita’s were dry, minimal tzatziki, minimal meat, which was really dry and burnt, and overly filled with chips. Essentially paying for a wrap of dry carbs and a small amount of burnt meat.

Ordered through deliveroo, waited an hour and half for the food to arrive. Should've only taken 20 mins. I rung up 4 times and each time the manager blamed deliveroo not collecting the order, or the driver cancelling. Not very helpful, and didn't offer any...

Ordered two wraps and two sides of chips. Sides were missing and wraps are bang average at best. They also got our drink order wrong too.

Ordered vegan chicken wrap and vegan chicken box. The wrap was nice but box came without the halloumi fries and overall a very small portion for the price. Staff were not particularly friendly and the wait was long (people who ordered after us got served...

First of all i used to love this place.. but the quality sure has gone downhill. While waiting for my order last week a huge argument was going on inside between 2 members of staff. This went on for the whole time i was waiting...

First and last time with this chain. Ordered two boxes one souvlaki and one chicken skewer. Firstly no chicken skewers. Both appeared to be some salty nondescript cut up meat. Actually what meat? The box was filled with chips, bread, some salad and a smattering...

This place is really nice, especially outside in covid times for takeaway. We had great souvlaki wraps, both vegetarian-halloumi! - and chicken. It was great, and had nice sauces available.

Just ordered from Deliveroo for my partner’s birthday as Gyros is his favourite thing to eat and we used to go here when it was open to walk in. Food arrived stone cold, chips were completely soggy, I am vegetarian and my partner eats meat....

Really disappointed. Our order took an hour and a half to arrive, there was one piece of burnt chicken In our wraps and the salad was the smallest I have ever seen and only contained tomato. I've eaten here before when it was open and...

We have been so excited at the thought of gyros again. It arrived at the allocated time but that was the only positive. It arrived cold. The meat was very bitty and we had to pull bits of fat out before starting to eat it....

Hands down my favourite takeaway of all time, the quality of their delivery is also impeccable. Can’t recommend this place enough :)

Tried the food here on a couple of occasions now,, it’s nice , but not great. Normally have the gyros. Not as good as taka taka,, so probably won’t be returning...

Tasty food and lovely staff an excellent combination, Joe the Big Bloke manager was an absolute pleasure to converse with, he even suggest to the lost souls in the menu who cant decide, take Joes advice and carry on!!! Will visit again soon !!! Love...

Stopped by to grab a takeaway one Saturday afternoon, it was quick and easy to order food & drinks from the doorway (Covid safe) and we happily waited with drink in hand until our food was ready. Ordered a Chicken Gyros and Double Chicken Souvlaki...

Superb, the vegan food is absolutely delicious, no more different take away for me for a while. Ps I also received a free delicious vegan brownie - sooo good!!!❤️

We had an amazing visit to the Athenian amazing friendly service and lovely food!!😍 highly recommend😋

I went to The Athenian on an eligible Tuesday night as they were showing registered on the government directory for the ‘Eat out to help out’ scheme. However, when I asked for the discount the staff said that the Bristol branch wasn’t offering it despite...

What a waste of money. Myself and a friend went to The Athenian Bristol for a meal, it has to be one of the worst experiences I’ve had in awhile, from the hipster service to the disgusting food. Both of our meals had hair (mine...

Very disappointing service today. Ordered a box meal at a busy period today and after waiting half an hour I went to question where my meal was. Turns out they had somehow lost the order between the door and the chefs. No compensation given which...

We ordered from Deliveroo this afternoon. My partner found worms in his halloumi wrap. Disgusted. Our family has felt sickened all evening - can’t get the image out of our heads.

Could not order over the phone and collect which is annoying so drove to Athenian. When we arrived we were told not taking orders for 15 minutes due to it being busy. When I said that we had drove in and could not leave our...

Needed to go out now lockdown relaxing. Found this place doing take aways. Great service and very tasty. Greek street food. Halloumi, courgette fritters and sweet potato fries all excellent. Plenty of choice for vegans and vegetarians too. Well worth a visit if you are...

Can not recommend this place enough! Just finished our deliveroo, and could not fault it! Having a vegan housemate can be challenging and this place did not disappoint! Fresh and tasty, will definitely be having food from here again!

Having passed this place for almost a year finally went in and the food was fantastic. Quick service and decent priced good to grab a bite and walk around the water front

I absolutely love the food! If you're looking for a great wrap, or delicious halloumi fries.. get yourself down there! Perfect for an informal or quick lunch

I always rely on the Athenian for a reasonably priced, tasty, healthy informal lunch in central bristol. The chicken is tender, halloumi grilled to perfection and the salad crisp and fresh. My husband assured me that the pork is equally good. The oregano fries are...

Sweet potato fries are amazing, covered in a batter. Great wraps, Halloumi is good. They should seal there delivery bags with a sticker/staple! Otherwise amazing

I just ordered via Deliveroo, had never heard of it before and it was absolutely delicious.(And came very quickly!)

The food was amazing and very accurate to what you’d have in Greece with an addition to having an open variety for different dietary requirements. In addition to this, there was friendly service. Will definitely visit again.

I came here on New Years Eve day with my family . The two guys in the kitchen were working their socks off and the shop was busy. There was a wait, but that was to be expected this time of year. The food was...

Tucked away in Cargo, the Athenian may not offer a massive selection of food, but it nails the Greek essentials (souvlaki and gyros) at decent prices with friendly and helpful staff. The food is delicious and high quality, with some ingredients brought across from Greece....

At first we assumed it was quite pricey for a quick bite to eat but that’s where we were wrong. The food was absolutely delicious with some excellent service to match. Many thanks!

been here quite a few times and the food is consistent. If you want a meal that will really fill you up and isn't expensive then this is my recommendation at wapping wharf. Perfect on a hangover too. Menu is easy to understand and works...

Was at Wembley Boxpark the other week,need to say the food is just superb. Pork Gyros and Vegan Gyros is a must try. Loved it!!!!!

Good food took a while to get served but food was fresh and nice would recommend for a quick bite nothing to rave about 😀 and it’s abit over priced for what it is

Went to this place on the weekend, the location in the converted shipping containers in Whapping Warf is so lush when you can then sit out on their balcony bit in the sun! I had a chicken Gyros wap with added Halloumi & "The Athenian...

Amazing. Nice to have a veggie option (tomato croquettes) that's abit more unusual than your typical halloumi etc.

I had been excited to visit another restaurant in this area as the ones that I have been to so far have been great. We managed to get a seat in the end but the restaurant was clearly over subscribed with customers and undersubscribed with...

What a lovely little place. The staff were really helpful with our allergy questions and made great ordering suggestions for our kids. I had the halloumi souvlaki and it was sublime. The wrap itself was much chewier and softer than I’d expected and the whole...

They have great gyros, sometimes. I've been a few times now and quite often they have run out of the pork gyros, however when they have some ready it is fantastic and can't be beaten.

Not quite the taste sensation people are making it out to be. Has no-one had a real Greek gyro or souvlaki in Greece. The house sauce is essentially mustard and honey mayo. American style mustard at that. The fries are pre packed. Salad poor with...

Starting to get a regular here now,the chicken skewer super box with all the trimmings and the athenian sauce is amazing 😍 could eat here every day if I could!,decent selection on the menu defs worth a try and will be back for sure,sometimes the...

We arrived on Saturday evening for food. There was a really long queue, but we knew the food was supposed to be good so we were prepared to wait. As we got closer, we saw people turning away without ordering, so we were wondering what...

Delicious food, but if you're visiting in person, prepare to wait behind a stream of Deliveroo and Uber Eats drivers before you get a hope of being served.

Me and my partner just drive all the way into town just to eat at the Athenian. How big was our surprise when we get there and says it’s close! There was some staff inside but when we asked if it’s was closed they just...

On a Saturday evening, expect to queue, however, the food is totally worth the wait. The Athenian sauce is worth a try and the Gyros tastes so authentic. Definitely will be back!

First visit to The Athenian today. We were served quickly by friendly staff, and given seats in the place even though it was busy. The souvlaki box meals were tasty and were great in portion size. The staff made sure they didn’t put tomatoes in...

Amazing food where you get a lot for what you pay. The staff are really friendly and helpful and the establishment had a very nice atmosphere Will definitely be visiting again!

It would have got 5 starts if it hadn't run out of Gyros on one of my four visits. Food is excellent, but limited seating.

Great food, great service and a cool vibe. Although busy, you get your food quite promptly. A different type of street food; there are some table for those who wish to linger

The food here is absolutely gorgeous, I’m lucky enough that I work close by My fav is the chicken and halloumi soulvaki it is so delicious and prices are fair. The staff are always friendly even though they are always rushed off their feet. Only...

Great food as always. Automatically allocated a sauce now apparently, though can change if you ask. Not sure whether 2 sauces allowed any more. The new buzzer system doesn't seem to have had an impact on wait times yet. We went in with one customer...

The food is amazing when it arrives but it took us about an hour to get it from the time we got there. We were queuing for about 25 mins even though there was only 4 people in front of us and then had to...

After a few drinks in at the harbourside on a sunny Sunday we went looking for food. We had previously eaten here and weren’t bowled over by the souvlaki or their Athenian honney and mustard dip. However, decided to give them another go as the...

they 're located at the container's project with many others, but people were queuing like crazy in comparison and brought memories from Greece. Had pork wrap souvlaki with standard genuine filling (salad,tomato,red onions,chips,tzatziki sauce) and it was 8/10 close to "real" one!!! Highly recommended if...

Has to be be best lunch we have had in a long time! We used the “click and collect” service for a takeaway lunch during the Easter holidays and it was amazing!! I had the halloumi slouvaki and my husband the chicken! Both were super...

100% recommend. Without a doubt the best Greek food I’ve tried! Not from Bristol but if I ever come back I will be heading to The Athenian!!! Would take a picture but it’s all gone 😁

Great place for a quick bite. The selection is simple but authentic and whether you pick a wrap or box option it is always fresh and tasty.

A love the Athenian, it's up there with Salt and Malt as our favourite places to get a quick bot to eat at Wapping Wharf. The food is always well prepared and delicious. We love the Greek flavours from our many holidays there, so it's...

Great menu with delicious halloumi. Good for lunch on the go. Was a small queue to begin with but the efficient staff mean it soon went. Trendy lunch in a trendy setting.

Honestly the best Greek food you can find in Bristol with an extremely helpful and kind staff too! Our deliveroo driver completely disappeard and never delivered our food, called or rang the bell. We waited outside for ages thinking he could not find the house...

...and in our opinion the best Greek food in all of Bristol. Fresh, lovely ingredients. The courgette fritters are a must! The boxes are great - though we wish they came without fries, as that’s a lot of starch and can get a bit dry...

Went on a Saturday afternoon which was busy so this is a good sign it’s good! The staff were friendly and quick I had the Lamb & Beef with grilled Halloumi Souvlak. This was outstanding!!! Thoroughly enjoyed it. I will be heading back soon to...

Best sweet potato fries in Bristol. Gyros that reminds me of where I lived in East London, only half the price. Never change guys ☺️

Eaten here a few times, food is great (although the salad bowl had rather too much feta and no lettuce which mean v salty) but during busy days you do have to wait (30 min queue) not because of all the people but the online...

After following these guys on Instagram and swooning over their food, we were in Bristol & decided to head to them for lunch. Quick service, excellent food. Everything was delicious! Would definitely recommend.

The gyros here is amazing. Cannot be beaten. The guys serving are always super friendly, informative and always recommend fillings/sauces if i'm unsure. My favourite quick bite in Bristol.

Athenian is located in a lovely and vibrant neighbourhood in Bristol and offers street food of good quality ! Food delicious and staff friendly!
