The Spotlight on Suvlaki Soho

Greek Street Food with a Soho Twist

Modern and unfussy, Suvlaki Soho brings the bold flavors of Athens to central London. Located in the heart of buzzing Soho, this casual Greek restaurant is just a short walk from many of the West End’s major music venues. With its sleek interior, friendly staff, and open kitchen, Suvlaki offers a relaxed yet energetic vibe that’s perfect for grabbing a bite before or after a show.

Specializing in Greek street food, the menu features hand-wrapped souvlaki, grilled meats, and fresh Mediterranean sides, all made with top-quality ingredients. Whether you’re in the mood for a quick handheld pita or a more filling platter, you’ll find satisfying options that don’t weigh you down before a concert.

Why Concert-goers love it

Speed and location are key here—Suvlaki is located mere minutes from some of London’s biggest concert halls and theaters. Guests often note that service is fast and efficient, making it ideal for those on a tight pre-show schedule. The laid-back vibe means you don’t need to dress up, and the upbeat atmosphere gets you in the mood for a night out. Plus, the food is easy to share, making it a favorite for groups heading to a show together.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends wanting a fun, casual meal before the show
  • Solo travelers craving something quick and tasty
  • Couples on a low-key date night before a concert
  • Fans looking for a lively, energetic pre-show bite
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing flavor

What People Say

Reviewers praise the “flavor-packed wraps,” “friendly and efficient staff,” and “great value for central London.” Many mention it’s their go-to for a quick meal before heading to nearby venues. The grilled lamb and chicken souvlaki are often highlighted as must-tries, along with the oregano fries and fresh dips. The casual, no-fuss setup gets high marks from those who want quality without the wait.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that seating can be limited during busy hours, especially on weekends. Others note that while the menu is focused and delicious, it’s not ideal if you're looking for a more formal, sit-down dining experience. A few reviewers would love to see more vegetarian options beyond the halloumi wrap.

The Bottom Line

If you’re after quick, flavorful Greek food in a killer location before heading to a gig, Suvlaki Soho hits all the right notes.
