Have it Greek!

On High Street in Canterbury, behind a black pub-looking window and door, there is hidden the most amazing Greek cuisine.

The Manolis Taverna is the only Greek restaurant in town and has not more than 8 tables. Decorated in white and blue and with souvenirs original from Greece, the restaurant surprises with its genuine and delicious Greek food.

The owner and chef is Rhodes-born Manolis who welcomes every client and introduces him into the Greek culture. He said: “After I serve all the meal, I like to come into the restaurant, talk to the customers, find out their story. I tell them about the food and the island where I grew up. “

Hidden behind the till, there is a wall full of pictures taken with customers, previous staff and family. “I’ve taken these in order to memorise some great moments during parties or just regular meals. They are all taken here and give it an element of familiarity and intimacy.”We are not posh, but we are very friendly and happy about any customer that walks through the door.”
