Popular Items at The Greek Pitta

The Greek Pitta is a beloved spot for authentic Hellenic street food, specializing in traditional grills and hearty gyros. Known for its generous portions and aromatic house-made sauces, it offers a true taste of Greece through classic techniques like charcoal grilling and slow-cooked rotisserie meats.

  • Pork or Chicken Gyro Wrap: These are the definitive favorites, featuring tender shavings of meat wrapped in a fluffy 20cm pitta with tzatziki, tomatoes, onions, and chips.
  • Chicken Halal Gyros Skepasti: A standout “Greek club sandwich” style dish where gyro meat, cheddar cheese, and sauces are pressed between two pittas and served with a mountain of chips.
  • Mixed Grill Platter: A popular choice for those who can’t decide, typically including a variety of skewers (kalamaki), sausages, and gyros, perfect for sharing.
  • Halloumi Fries with Honey: A signature appetizer that balances the salty, squeaky cheese with a sweet glaze, often topped with sesame seeds.
  • Greek Salad: A fresh, traditional mix of tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and a large slab of Greek feta seasoned with oregano and extra virgin olive oil.

Budget-Friendly Choices at The Greek Pitta

The Greek Pitta is highly accessible, offering various meal deals that bundle main wraps with sides and drinks to maximize value.

Option TypeWhat to ExpectSmart Choice Example
Meal DealsWrap + chips + drinkSingle Gyro Wrap Deal
Light BitesIndividual skewers or frittersKalamaki (Skewer) portion
Sharing DealsLarge platters for 2–4 peopleMixed Grill for Two
Vegetarian ValueFilling plant-based wrapsFalafel or Halloumi Wrap
  • Choosing a Meal Deal instead of ordering items separately is the most practical way to save, often reducing the total cost of a full lunch by 15–20%.
  • The 20cm Pitta Wraps are substantial enough to serve as a full meal for most solo diners at a lower price point than the larger Merida (plate) portions.
  • Classic appetizers like Tomato or Zucchini Fritters provide a budget-friendly way to sample traditional flavors without committing to a large main.

What to Order at The Greek Pitta Based on Your Needs

The menu is designed to cater to everything from a quick handheld lunch to a massive family feast.

  • For solo meals: A Chicken or Pork Gyro Wrap is the classic handheld choice, perfectly balanced with salad and chips inside the bread.
  • For chicken lovers: The Chicken Kalamaki (Skewer) is marinated in traditional herbs and grilled over charcoal for a leaner, smoky flavor.
  • For meat lovers: The Lamb Ribs or Lamb Chops are hearty, protein-rich options served with chips and pitta.
  • For budget-conscious users: Opting for the Falafel Wrap or Vegetarian Wrap provides a very filling meal at one of the lowest price points on the menu.
  • For quick takeaway: Skepasti (the “covered” pitta) is easier to transport than open plates and stays warm longer due to the pressed pitta layers.
  • If you prefer a stronger flavor, the Spicy Feta (Tirokafteri) dip is an excellent addition to any wrap for an extra kick.
  • If you are looking for a lighter option, the Grilled Sea Bass or Greek Calamari provides a fresh, coastal alternative to the heavier grilled meats.

What to Know Before Ordering from The Greek Pitta

To ensure you get the best experience, it’s helpful to understand the traditional terminology and portion styles used.

  • Merida vs. Wrap: A “Wrap” is the classic handheld pitta, while a “Merida” is a deconstructed plate portion that includes more meat, a side salad, and a full portion of chips.
  • Skepasti: This is unique to Greek fast food—it’s essentially a giant toasted sandwich made with two pitta breads, cheese, and gyro meat. It is very filling and can often be shared.
  • Customization: You can choose your sauce for most items; while Tzatziki is traditional, their Special Sauce (a tangy, creamy house dressing) is a popular alternative.
  • Portion Sizes: Greek pitta wraps traditionally include chips inside the wrap, so there is no need to order extra chips unless you are particularly hungry.

Is The Greek Pitta Halal, Vegan, or Vegetarian Friendly?

The Greek Pitta is notably inclusive, making it a popular choice for diners with specific dietary requirements in the UK.

CategoryAvailability
HalalSeveral locations (notably Luton) are certified Halal for all chicken and lamb items. Always confirm with your local branch.
VegetarianWidely available, including Halloumi Skewers, Cheese Saganaki, and Vegetarian Gyros.
VeganDedicated Vegan Gyros (made from plant-based proteins) and Falafel options are core menu staples.

Alternatives to The Greek Pitta

If you’re looking for a different style of Mediterranean food or a similar grilled experience, consider these alternatives:

  • The Souvlaki: A highly rated alternative for traditional skewers and gyros with multiple locations across London and the UK.
  • Real Greek: A more sit-down, restaurant-style chain focusing on meze sharing plates and modern Greek dining.
  • German Doner Kebab (GDK): For those who prefer a different style of rotisserie meat with a more modern, fast-food twist on the traditional kebab.
