Reviews of Despina Foods

K. S.

My new favourite local supermarket. Delicious baked goods, farm fresh produce and moreish home made halloumi and marinated olives. On the pricey side but worth the treat

A.

Slightly more pricey products but you do get better quality too. Staff are lovely, recommend it for sowm quality Greek vibes and food!

B. F.

Lovely supermarket especially if you like Greek foods. The shop does everything you can think of.

D. R.

Delicious home made baked goods! The olive bread , pumpkin pie and biscuits made with ground sesame seeds are amazing! If you want to try traditional Greek Cypriot food this is the place to go! Good for a lock down adventure and lunch feast.

P. K.

Greek Cypriot grocery. Very well stocked

R. O.

Good quality and selection of greek and cypriot groceries and fruit and vegetables. Only problem is that there is so much it gets rather cramped to move round.

P.

I bought before one pitta with halloumi and it’s delicious

J. W.

This is a great Greek Deli with a scrumptious assortment of everything Greek from a fresh olive counter to a selection of rare Greek olive oils to a huge range of biscuits and nibbles. Cypriot imports tend to dominate - no bad thing. If you like Greek sausages, feta or halloumi this is the place to come with a tempting variety of products. There is also a rare selection of hard to find Greek wines - including the best Cypriot wine, Commanderia. As lockdown comes to an end and summer gradually dawns, this deli has all you need for a perfect barbecue.

N.

Bit pricey. The spinach and cheese triangles are delicious. So fresh. Some of the staff can be rude sometimes other than that the shop has lovely greek products, worth travelling too...

s. o.

Despine store is very good store you can find anything you looking for Mediterranean food but it's little bit expensive I am traveling from south London to north London to go despina I am hoping to open a store to south east London

K. P.

It's a great place, it stocks many many goodies from Greece and Cyprus along with fresh fruit and veg. It's easily accessible, however prices are quite steep compared to similar Cypriot/Greek businesses stocking more or less the same products.

R. R. T.

An asset for the area. We love going there for thir fresh produce and inhouse bakery items. Some items can be comparively pricey but we are ok with that to help a local business survive. Great staffs. Please do come in and spend your money here help keep these independent local businesses sustain. We are not Greek/Cypriot but when we go here we feel so connected. The smell of freshly baked bread, the olives and the ambience reminds me of the small village i grew up in somewhere in the far east 💗

Best Greek food shop in london

P. P.

Their fruit and veg (except for their apples) as well as other products are usually a cut above most shops. You do pay about 20% extra though. I was disappointed that their flaouna was reheated from frozen and didn't taste right. They have a good range of olive oils at decent prices

A. A.

Staff are very helpful. They have amazing fresh fruit, veg and bakery selection. Most importantly, they have a wide range of Greek food and drinks from Cyprus and Greece.

L. M.

Good Greek store with fantastic homemade lamb goebers

v. p.

Greek and Cypriot products. Love this place 💕

G. K.

A brilliant selection of real Cypriot food. We can't travel to Cyprus this year but this shop can help bring a bit of Cyprus to us

A. T.

Their olives are the best in London!

C. B.

Really Great Food, I believe it's home made, and very competitive prices, the Manager was very helpful & happy in these uncertain times. Highly recommended.

M. I.

I love this store! It's ALL GREEK!!! Makes me feel at home!

T. H.

Always reminds of the weekly bazaar we used to go with mum in Athens. A wide selection of authentic Greek food. Really competitive prices too. I always get some feta and bread.

a. b.

Great local shop with lot of Greek specialty groceries. Good selection fresh fruit and vegetables. Has a olive bar.

B. N.

Great choice of Mediterranean produce.

J. V.

Proper taste of Cyprus at Despinas. Guaranteed to find almost everything to do with Greek Cypriot cuisine. Good quality food on sale however does not excuse the excessively high prices they charge.

P. C.

Great produce. But pricey. There's a review by a guy called John W who gave a bad review as follows.... Great service bad Danish. Who goes to a Cypriot store to buy and expect a good Danish. What a ****.

S. Z.

Great staff good choices of food stuff.

n. m.

Amazing authentic Greek shop. Wonderful Greek pastries and produce

Y. C.

Large variety of Cypriot and Greek foods, fresh and frozen. Koupes are amazing!!

P. S.

This shop holds a very strong name in our Greek Cypriot family. They have all the Cypriot essentials for a good souvlakia session. Their fresh vegetables are of good quality. However most importantly Despina makes the best koubes. People have been known to order them from Despina to take them back with them to Cyprus.

G. A.

Love this shop! Every time I am in London I always try and get here for some of delicious food from the motherland! Unfortunately living in Bristol this isn't local but..... they deliver!! All round great!

F. G.

Great seller and excellent products on sell, especially Cypriot ones. I always get something when I'm around the area

G. D.

Great selection of fruit and vegetables, always very fresh, very wide selection of products from Greece and Cyprus including baked goods. Reasonable prices and good offers.

S. C.

What a wonderful shop this one!Always going for 2 things and ending up with 4 bags full of holiday nostalgia!You can always find parking very near or walk 2 minutes from the Arnos Grove station.The owners keep busy bit always keen on helping and talk with costumers.Love the Feta cheese,Greek beers and chocolate.Traditional Rusks replace croutons in a salad and are perfect for whoever is dieting.Keep up the good job guys!

C. J.

A real gem of a shop in an otherwise unexciting shopping area, all kinds of Greek / Cypriot foods and more, the range of olives is amazing, you can choose from jars / sealed packs or serve yourself. Different brands of humous, taramasalata etc, fresh vegetables flown in, also a huge range of breadsticks, kritsinia, ladokouloura, etc. Fresh bread and cakes brought in daily. Lots of jars of honey. Only one warning: it can get very busy, so you may have to queue, but while you wait, you can look at the candles, oil lamps and incense on sale for visitors to the nearby Orthodox cemetery.

B. J.
