Reviews of Yannis Greek restaurant
S. P.
Absolutely beautiful meal with my hubby. I had moussaka. Hubby has chicken shawarma wrap with chips and a plate of gyros, which was by far the nicest out of the 3 dishes! We also brought home some orange cake for dessert.... amazing service and outstanding food!!
M. H.
The food tasted nice, but portion size are poor and overpriced. Ordered the Greek salad at £6/7 all I got was half a bowl of salad and Feta cheese was crumbs, no cubes..Before it hit table I had to mention and complained.
Main chips were undercooked and not crispy plus varied between dishes. Lamb chops were tasty. Overall cannot understand why meal took extra 20min to arrive than it should when restaurant not busy. Open kitchen and could see chef eating, while waiting for our food.
Atmosphere and location good.
E. P.
Hand on heart some of the best Greek food I’ve had. Delicious! Never thought in County Durham I’d be eating good Greek food but there you go. Also had a great bottle of wine to go with it - would 100% go back.
L. C.
Food is great. Its a little small and cramped but still has a great atmosphere, drinks are a little pricey. Been a few times and will be back. Would love to order something other than the mix grill but why would I?
D. W.
Whenever I'm in the northeast I make sure I pop in. It's simply the best Greek food I've had anywhere other than in Greece.
Service is great, food is absolutely exquisite and thoughtfully presented. It's also very reasonably priced so is well worth a visit. I heartily recommend the Gyros and Souvlaki.
R. P.
Was very quiet and well looked after.
Gyros was canny!
B.
Good food. Simple but nice surroundings. Helpful staff, good service and friendly staff. Moderately price. Would definitely go again.
L. T.
Love Yannis. We've been eating here on a regular basis since we moved to Lanchester five years ago and even though it has changed ownership in the time, the food has remained excellent. Can't recommend enough (although some Greek wine wouldn't go amiss on the menu...).
P. E. (.
Great authentic style Greek restaurant. Great value for money, and has a classic taverns vibe, not flashy just good. If you want wine, you must bring your own.
V. S.
First time visiting Yannis and trying Greek food and we weren't disappointed. We had the Gyros which was very nice. The staff and service were really good too.
The only criticism I have is that it is cash only as we were nearly caught out by this. Luckily I noticed this before we ordered and was able to go to a cashpoint and get some money.
P. G.
Excellent food and kind staff. Very reasonably priced.
m. n.
Fantastic food. The gyros was beautifully marinaded and cooked on the turning grill. Lovely breads, fresh salad, also had delicious feta filo parcels. Really friendly staff, nice Greek beer and well priced too. Running out of superlatives. Will be back, as Arnie once said.
J. R.
Amazing place. Good food, lovely waitresses, good prices. No alcohol license, so take your own, if needed.
C. Y.
Service very slow and we were very cold as we weren't sat near to 1 of the two heaters in the building.It is a cash only restaurant so several of our party had to go out to cashpoint.
On a positive tho' the food was good and the waitress helpful and friendly.
P. L.
As others have said the food is warm at best which I don't understand as the grill is literally at front of house. However, it is delicious
D. R.
Very affordable restaurant serving traditional Greek dishes and pizza. Take away is also available. I thought portions were slightly small but very tasty nonetheless. Service was OK, fast and no fuss. The back room we were in was quite noisy, possibly just the other diners or it could be the acoustics.
D. A.
First time I had Greek food and I can’t compare to anywhere else as I only go here for Greek.
Really tasty, staff always friendly. Would recommend. I love the pittas. I have a big appetite so normally get a pizza to take home too.
Staff friendly, serve mythos, Greek music go in summer in your shorts and tee shirt and it’s a proper Greek experience 👍🏻
C. T.
Absolute hidden gem. Family recommended the place so we went today for the 3 course lunch time special for £6.95. Food was fantastic and reminded me so much of Greece. Family run restaurant and the staff were really friendly. Will definitely be back again! This place doesn't take cards so you'll need to bring cash however there is a cash point across the road next to Spar.
C. L.
I have been waiting to visit for such a long time as don't live near . Well it was well worth the wait the food was immense I now need a holiday lol. Staff fantastic just felt like we was in a taverna in Greece.. thankyou so much will definitely be back very soon
R. S.
I enjoyed the food here. However service was a little slow. We were pretty much forgotten. Our starters were taken to the next table, we had to ask twice for water and we ended up just going to pay after nobody came over to us towards the end.
F. W.
Always good service and food. They are able to adapt the menu to suit different diet's. However, the vegan options could be a little broader.
L. s.
Gorgeous meal for my birthday and fab waitress. Definitely will be back. Lamb was amazing
m. p.
Very nice place. Very accommodating. You can get bet beer in the place but not wine, which your allowed to bring and consume your own. Cash only payments. Service is quick and the food is of a good standard. Fairly priced as well. They are happy hour deals.
P. A.
What a wonderful, delicious and budget friendly visit to Yannis. We chose from the special 3-course menu and we weren't disappointed. Our meal for two cost around £16 and the service was excellent.
A. R.
Beautiful food everything was so tasty and great value the service was fantastic we will be back
C. M.
Was decent, had the meat platter thing was nice some of the meat like the burger I felt was a little overdone but better than under I suppose.
L. C.
One of my favourite places to have lunch. The moussaka is just unbelievable and the gyros is something I want to share with all my friends that come visit me. Staff are super friendly.
Seriously, it is better than many Greek restaurants in Greece.
H. K.
Great food and service was excellent definitely recommend if your looking for something a little different
S. B.
Amazing food, and staff were so friendly and helpful!!
H. M.
Great meal and excellent value. Waitresses were very attentive and friendly. Only downside was that it's cash only. Will definitely get a take away for the family from Yannis next time the family stay over!
B. C.
Discovered this little gek about 2 years ago and have abused it constantly ever since. Excellent quality fresh food at very reasonable prices and a nice atmosphere. Best time to go is between 12-2 or 5-7 for the set menu prices. Get yourself there!
S. T.
Loved this place. We went here for my Sister's birthday with all the family, and it was great. Good, proper, authentic Greek cooking with plenty of vegetarian options. Would certainly go back again.
R. M.

Freezing cold in the restaurant unfortunately, don't take cards for payment which is very strange in this day and age, food was quite good, kleftiko not like it usually is in Greece! They do takeaways too which looked nice.

Lovely small little restaurant in the middle of Lanchester. Beautiful food for a very reasonable price, especially if you manage to get the 3 for £5. You really can't complain and will be coming back plenty of times.
