Mythical traveller Odysseus wandered the earth's crust for years, due not to the whims of a belligerent ocean god, but rather to those of a picky stomach, craving the perfect Dolmades: satisfy the pang that Odysseus could not with today's Groupon: for £15.60 you and another can feast on a two person mezze at the highly regarded Olive Grove.
The Olive Grove welcomes diners to a taste of real Greece. Bringing you traditional homemade Greek food, not as it is cooked in the tourist resorts, but as it has been cooked for centuries in the small and idyllic towns and villages away from the saturated city centres. The Grade II Listed building was originally a cottage and has a newly paved area to the front with tables and seating to lazily graze your Greek fancies on warm summer evenings. The restaurant upstairs adds to the splendid feeling of dining in someone's house, the two dining rooms seat up to 37 people, and offer a relaxed and intimate atmosphere.
