Olive & Oregano

Who we are

Olive & Oregano are the new hot Greek street food in Wales started by Prokopis and Antonis, Two thirds of the well-established Ya- Souvlaki inside Cardiff Market.

Juicy, fresh, aromatic, spiced-up, soft, tasty pork gyros, wrapped in a traditional crispy pita bread Made in Greece, with tomatoes, onions, fries and our signature-garlic sauce (tzatziki)!

As a business owner the past 12 years, Antonis has travelled a lot around the Country and tried a lot of street food, from Thai, to Chinese but mainly Greek and can say with great certainty, that Olive & Oregano is the top of its kind in the UK, according to my experience.

If you plan to visit Cardiff or Swansea Albert Hall, this place is a no-brainer and I am sure that you will be back after your first visit!

Background

Prokopis is a well know Business owner in Cardiff and in London and Antonis Alexandris, acclaimed Greek chef with thirty-two years’ experience and a penchant for unique dishes.
