At the counter of Greek and Shop you can order pitas, sandwiches, pastries, and more. There is also…read morea wall of grocery items, including dry-goods and refrigerated foods. You can buy canned and jarred foods, as well as dairy products and salads. They also sell boxes of tea and wines, too. When I eat here, I like to order the menu pita, which is €5.50 for a pita sandwich and a drink. The falafel pita is quite good, with all of the fixings. I also get a spanakopita (spinach and filo pastry) for €2.95 on the side, which is they do well. Prices are very reasonable and the staff are very friendly, even to non-locals!

If you are looking for a greek place, but not a full out greek restaurante this is the place to go…read more! Inside you will find a set up in which they have several foods prepared, ready for the go. You can also make your own to-go plate by choosing the ingredients that you want.

We had just strolled from Plaza Mayor on a Monday afternoon at 4:30PM. It was completely packed like an indoor version of The Great Migration in really slow motion. We could hardly see any of the food much less be able to order anything or even less, find any place to eat it. Through the masses, I could tell it was a high-end gourmet hall, and apparently over thirty vendors do business here. I saw maybe two. Come at 10AM if you have any interest in trying the food here. The cacophonous late afternoon anarchy made us lose our appetites. If you think my assessment is unfair, I suggest you march off the cliff with the rest of the Instagram lemmings.
