The Real Greek Review

The Bankside outpost of The Real Greek mini-chain is a must for anyone visiting the South Bank, as it stands right next to the Globe Theatre and only a stone's throw from the Tate Modern. Like its siblings, it deals in genuine street food: skewered souvlaki wrapped in sheaths of warm grilled bread are one of the main attractions, and the choice varies seasonally (pork from November to May, lamb, chicken and vegetables at other times of the year).

Mezedes are also perennial favourites, especially at lunchtime: look for little dolmades, salt cod fritters, Feta 'from the barrel' and gigandes plaki (oven-baked Kastorian giant beans in tomato and herb sauce).
