"Service was on point! Super friendly and attentive! The food was actually amazing! We had a small table so it became quite full - was it an issue? Nope! They kindly waited until we had eaten what we had and then made more food to order! One of the best meals we've had in a while!"

"Fantastic food. It transported me straight to the Aegean. Loukoumades feta (doughnuts with feta and honey) are a must try. Seriously good. Staff were super friendly and attentive (thanks Bee and Johnny!) Highly recommend for an authentic taste of Greece in the north."

"We came here for restaurant week so had a limited menu. The food was fantastic - the grilled Greek sausage and beef stifado were particular favourites. The staff are amazing. The place was packed which tells you how good it is!"

"First visit to Salparo and I was very impressed. The food , service and atmosphere were all spot on and it made for as close to a Greek traditional meal as I could hoped for without being in Greece itself. The portion sizes were large, the food very well prepared and incredibly tasty. The staff were very friendly and accommodating and the Greek music and decor all made a really good evening and experience."

"An early evening visit, food is all described as “sharing” plates. We went for Halloumi cheese, prawn skewers, chicken souvlaki and belly pork. The place was very quiet, staff were good, food was okay, but not outstanding and certainly not sharing size plates. Total cost was over £80 (inc a 10% added service charge) with one drink each."

"Been twice and will be back again. Food is amazing and generous portions. Great value and the fantastic team will look after you. Belly pork is amazing! Would have taken more pictures but was too busy eating!"
