Went on a whim with visiting family and was very glad! Absolutely delicious food, great portions as well. We each had a wrap which was fantastic, but the deserts afterwards were mindblowing! Will absolutely be coming back next time my family is back up.
Little Athens Café is an absolute gem and easily one of the best places in Leeds for authentic Greek food. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and beautifully set — it genuinely feels like a little escape to Greece. The food is outstanding. Everything tastes fresh, homemade, and full of flavour, with generous portions and excellent quality. Whether you’re coming for breakfast, coffee, or a full meal, you can tell real care and passion go into every dish. What truly makes this place special is the service. The staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional, always making you feel comfortable and looked after without rushing you. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get, making it excellent value for money. Amazing food, fantastic service, and a great atmosphere — 100% worthy of 5 stars. Highly recommended and definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to.
Very disappointed by this place after reading excellent reviews we had the Greek sausage wrap which was a three out of five and an English breakfast which was appalling to say the least … cold wrinkled mushrooms, rock hard bacon, soggy oil filled hash browns sausages that were without flavour and toast that was barely toasted so much so that I had to return it to be toasted the remainder was mostly left on the plate … lovely girl serving who was doing her best given the circumstances … oh and the coffee was frankly terrible unlike any cappuccino I’ve ever had before … such a shame but it is what it is !
Excellent poached eggs on ciabatta with bacon and tomato. Would definitely return for lunch or dinner, the menu of Greek dishes looked delicious.
Delicious authentic Greek food. Superb service and great atmosphere. …. Had a nice cocktail too. Mythos beer services in frosted chilled glass. Summer evening tonight and bifold doors open so as to allow a breeze… will definitely visit again.
