Where Every Plate Tells a Story.
At Avli, food is more than sustenance—it’s a story, a celebration, and a connection to something deeper. Our menu is inspired by the rich culinary traditions of Greece, lovingly reimagined through a modern lens.
We focus on Greek fusion cuisine, blending authentic Mediterranean flavours with fresh, seasonal ingredients and bold, unexpected twists. Whether it’s the delicate char of perfectly grilled octopus, the brightness of lemon and herbs, or the comfort of slow-cooked lamb, our food is designed to be shared and savoured—just as it would be in a Greek home.
Our menu is built around the idea of connection: small plates for grazing, larger dishes for feasting, and wine and cocktails to carry the conversation late into the evening. To complement the food, we offer a curated selection of Greek-inspired cocktails, crafted with ingredients like ouzo, mastiha, citrus, and native herbs. Our drinks list also features Greek and local wines, imported Greek beers, and traditional soft drinks—each chosen to enhance the flavours on your plate and add a touch of Mediterranean flair to your experience.
Every element reflects our commitment to the Holy Trinity of Greek hospitality—food, drink, and heartfelt service.
From familiar classics to inventive signatures, we invite you to explore the flavours of Avli. Because here, every plate is part of the journey—and every meal, a memory in the making.
A Church, Reborn. A Dream, Served Daily.
Welcome to Avli, an intimate Greek restaurant where history, culture, and cuisine come together to create an unforgettable dining experience. Avli began as a heartfelt homage to the traditions of Greece—a place where family, food, and hospitality are at the core of everything.
Rooted in tradition yet inspired by innovation, Avli is more than just a restaurant—it’s a celebration of Greek heritage reimagined for today. We honour the timeless elements of Greek life—the Holy Trinity of food, drink, and hospitality—while blending authentic Mediterranean flavours with contemporary culinary artistry. Our dishes are crafted with care, using sun-ripened ingredients, time-honoured techniques, and a creative spirit that brings new life to the classics.
Each plate tells a story. Each sip evokes the warmth of sun-soaked vineyards. And every visit invites you to experience the genuine heart of Greek hospitality. From small share plates to thoughtful mains, every bite reflects our passion for storytelling through food.
Avli’s journey has been one of love, pause, and revival. Though our doors briefly closed, this chapter allowed us to reflect, refine, and return with renewed passion. Today, we’re proud to welcome you back—to savour, to celebrate, and to create new memories together.
