The food was delicious and highly recommend this place. Great balance of seasoning and flavor.

The food here is very reasonably priced and pretty tasty. I got the chicken kabob plate and really enjoyed the gyro meat and the Greek salad. However, when we arrived at 12 noon on a Tuesday, no one appeared to be working. It took maybe 5 min for someone to come to the counter to help us. The primary eating area had bad acoustics, so we could hear everything that the people having a meeting were saying. It sounded as if we were sitting with them. In all honesty, I would go for the food, but not necessarily the service or the ambiance. read more

Briar Mart - Chicken Kabob (1 Skewer of Chicken Kabob with Greek Salad and Pita Bread)... except I didn't get pita bread ‍ - Grocery Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

Food is marginally edible in large portions Chicken shish kebabs were good but the "beef" was something resembling bland hamburger in the shape of a kebab. Service was slow (understaffed?). Ambiance is nice for a small grocery store, but not for a nice sit down meal. read more

We found this spot on a fluke today and it is by far our favorite spot now. Food is made fresh and it is mouthwatering. My family and I truly enjoyed it. The portions are great for the price. We will definitely come back. read more

BriarMart is the bees knees. All 6 of them! The Greek nachos are pure bliss and the ingredients are all fresh and delightful.

Food - delicious Atmosphere - seriously lacking Service - If you want to be treated like a jerk for walking in door during lunch, this is the place for you. As a regular customer, I am seriously questioning whether I'll darken their door again. read more

Was skeptical when I pulled up, but holy cow the food was incredible! Beef kabobs, chicken kabobs, hummus, and shawarma were 10/10 read more

Lovely little Greek restaurant/grocery store. The staff a friendly and helpful when you have questions. Good portions for the price. Food itself has never not been delicious, but I am not picky, so take that as you want. read more

Briar Mart - Gyro Value meal - Grocery Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

This place is inside a MARKET. Only a few option. Had to wait for the only person working on the front taking order. We order the Gyro plate and Beef Skew plate. It takes a while to come out. Since is a mom and pop place. The plate was huge with 4 piece of bread. It was so good and authentic! Will definitely be back!!!! read more

The Best! My wife and I drive from Teller County to eat at Briar Mart. We have been coming here for 24 years. What more can we say. Sean, the owner, remembers our usual order, down to the extra hummus. Wow. read more

Not only is this place kinda dirty and run down, but they're short. Staffed, and the owner took the order and then it took about twenty five minutes just to get the food.The owner took the order and instead of making it correct. He proceeded to argue about my order. It was guro meat instead of chicken. Warning don't eat here. THE FOOD IS NASTY AND THE SERVICE IS NASTIER. read more

It was delicious! I got the falafel value meal and it was so good and so filling. I love that this feels like a little hometown restaurant. Its a down to earth kind of place:) read more

I would give them 5 starts if they would respect their customers by asking people not to talk on the phone so loud or at all while dining, you are the host, it is your house, you make the rules. read more

Mediterranean restaurant with a few shelves of grocery items. Salads were very good but those pita chips were the best!!!! Service was great. The adobe style building has a cute little area in the front for outdoor seating. We'll definitely be back for those pita chips!!!! read more

My wife and I love Briar Mart! Shawn makes the best gyros in town. It's our go to if we can't make up our mind, if we are celebrating, if we are feeding friends, if we are pressed for time, if we don't feel like cooking. Basically anytime :) The other day we had the gyro nachos. Fried pita, gyro meat, feta, Tzatziki sauce. Perfect. Easy to access near Woodmen and Academy. Also if you're out for a ride on the Cottonwood Trail, it's right there. Definitely stop in! Pickup ordering is super easy too. Just call ahead and your delicious food will be waiting for you. Small but nicely stocked middle eastern/Mediterranean market at Briar Mart as well. read more

Briar Mart always provides my pantry staples for Middle Eastern foods. Particularly the Lebanese EVOO. I love the pickles also. read more

Went here recently and was dissapointed. The gyros were overseasoned and it just feels like there is no love involved with the place. I bought a jar of the pickled veggies and I got home to a leaky bag. The lid was opened partly but not only that the brine just looked cloudy and gross. I didn't bother taking it back . I got the vibe that I wouldn't have got a refund. Too bad. The place was good a few years back. Happy eating. read more

A gem in Colorado Springs serves fantastic, authentic Mediterranean food. I discovered Briar Mart based on a recommendation of a friend, who thought I might like it after talking about our world travels. She's was right! The place is a market/restaurant so it may not be setup in a way that Americans are used to. However, don't let the atmosphere scare you away, the food is worth it. As an added benefit, you can buy a box or two of Turkish Delight from the market in the way out! If you're on the fence... Be adventurous and have a new unique experience. read more

Tasty and fresh. Had the sampler plate which included hummus, pita, salad, falafel and spanakopita. Everything was delicious. Quiet and unassuming place with quality food for a good price. read more

Best gyros around! I have been dining in or picking up from Briar Mart for several years. Portion sizes are great, food is always fresh and service is great. read more

Best Gyros I have ever tasted!!!!! We had the chicken and the regular gyros - both were awesome. The service was good. The people there were so nice! We will definitely go again. The only thing was that we did know what kind of food we were in store for. We definitely would've been there sooner, but we did not know who was a Mediterranean food type. There is no signage to tell you that from the outside. read more

Best Gyro in Colorado Springs!! The mart also has a great variety. Plenty of parking and the staff is always friendly

2 went today. Neither one liked it at all The Green salad was lettuce, 3 olives, red onion, teeny bit of feta( could barely see and taste) and some lousy tasting tomatoes. We got Chcicken Gyros too. Lousy tomatoes, not enough taziki sauce, raw white onion (yuck), lettuce, and that was it. The only thing I liked in the whole meal was the bread. The person waiting on us was not friendly or welcoming. The building is tired and nothing special, but you know what I could care less about the inside, if they have tasty food made with care I will go anywhere. This food was made as cheap as possible and the meat just not yummy at all. read more

This was my first time at Briar Mart. It was delicious! The place is so nice & clean. I will definitely be going back soon. read more

Long story short, the food gave me the runs so I won't be back....read on for other thoughts.... They didn't use feta on the greek salad which was bizarre. It was some kind of grated cheese...maybe mozzarella? I've seen pics of their greek salad and it looks like they usually use feta. Maybe they were out on this day and said 'Heck, throw some other tasteless cheese on there. They'll never know the difference'....I noticed the difference and the salad was really missing the tang of feta. Greek dressing was bland. Salad = zero stars Chicken kabob was bland, no seasoning whatsoever. Gyro meat was tasty dipped in tatziki! This was the only saving grace of the whole meal. Portions are generous. I had leftovers, but they ultimately did not get eaten because I didn't want a replay of the runs! read more

The food was excellent and the man who helped us was very kind. It's a little funky in there, I would probably order takeout next time.

I just can't get enough of this food! I have tried so many places and it's just so amazing! The hummus is so damn fresh and the pita bread is to die for! The owners shop EVERYDAY for the ingredients, so fresh and it shows in the food! Amazing people and even better food! read more

Briar Mart - Appetizer, hummus and pita bread, outstanding!!!! - Grocery Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

BEST GREEK in town!!! Everything is fresh and delicious! Lots of places to sit inside and outside. Gorgeous flowers outside. The owner is so kind, he will remember your order even months after coming back in. So friendly and welcoming. A great place to grocery shop too! They have amazing food! read more

We ordered the hummus and pita, with a gyro sandwich and gyro value meal. The hummus was fresh and pretty good. The pita bread was amazing! I think the best I've ever had. It was crispy on the outside and hot and fresh with perfect flavor. Definitely the best thing we got. The French fries were just boring. Def skip the value meal and just get the gyro sandwich. The meat was good, but I've had better. It had a great texture and wasn't tough to chew, and the flavor was good but not amazing. It was there, but not a lot. The tzatziki was kinda boring, like maybe it's missing the cucumber seasoning? I can't say. And again with the pita. Overall, the sandwich was good and I would get the it again. I haven't had a gyro this good since I left Houston, but no one can be Gyro King there. read more

Got my takeout order wrong. Chicken was stale and had a terrible taste. Gyro meat was okay, but nothing special. Wanted to try the shawarma (the order they screwed up), but since the chicken gyro was funky, I think I'll pass. Hard pass on this place. read more

This place is the best in town, and tastes like my hometown Chicago. I'm a picky eater also, but Briar Mart satisfy my taste bug's every time. Go check them out. read more

This place is a hidden gem in Colorado Springs. Not only is it a great little Mediterranean taverna, they have a little market with hard-to-find Mediterranean grocery items. I highly recommend the 'Low Carb Sultani' to get a nice sampling of their kebabs and gyro meat...with extra tzatziki, please! Be patient if they get busy (they are minimally staffed and do a lot of take-out during peak dinner time). read more

I got the gyro platter and ate it all before I could take a picture. Growing up in Chicago, you get used to all kinds of good food - I haven't had a gyro this good since last time I was home. Hummus and tzatziki were both amazing. Market place attached is really cool if you want to try some authentic home cooking. New local favorite! read more

Amazing gyro and hummus! The family loved it. We will be going here any time we want Mediterranean!

I've been coming here for years and it's always great. Best gyro meat in town. It's so good we even cater food for parties from here.

Grabbed a tasty lunch to go here. Ordered the beef kabob plate that included a side salad and pita. The meat was seasoned just right and was nice and juicy. The salad was topped with some of the best olives I have had and delicious tomatoes and feta. The food is cooked fresh so if your in a hurry call and order before on your way here. If you have time check out the grocery selection as the shelves are stocked with various imported mediterranean and middle eastern food items. read more

Good food. Good price, service is zero. The guy by all means is very rude. I almost left after ordering my food.

A nice family establishment. I was looking for some Mediterranean grocery items which I found here. I also purchased some delicious dolmas and great feta cheese. I'll definitely be back for more! Great customer service. read more
