Hide AdThe branch at Manchester's Corn Exhange has an average rating on Google reviews of 3.8 stars. One person called it an 'amazing' place and another said the food was 'delicious', especially the Greek filo custard pie, and the atmosphere 'brought back fond memories of my hometown in Greece'.
Among the most popular items on the menu, based on customer reviews, are the souvlaki wraps, which consist of flatbread filled with chips, fresh tomatoes, red onion and sweet paprika; the moussaka; and the meze, which includes falafel, lamb meatballs and grilled aubergine.
It is not known when the new branch of The Real Greek at Meadowhall is scheduled to open. The firm has not responded to The Star.
Handmade Burger Co had collapsed in 2020 before a number of branches, including the one at Meadowhall, were reopened by a former worker who told The Star how he was taking it back to its roots.
The Meadowhall branch is now showing on Google as 'permanently closed', with the last review having been left five months ago. When you try to open the website it says it is a 'private site'.
