mariag 4 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 can you remember the greek chippy at the top of victoria street..some great characters worked in there.....were you one of them? Yes, I remember the greek chippy it was ther for 25 years!!!! The resteraunt upstairs The Greek Taverna was owned by one chap and if I remember rightly the chef bought it and then moved to further in the lace market , he bought this as long as he could keep the name. He still runs the resteraunt with his son. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Riff 1 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Oh the Greek was great. They did a great doner and chips, You could also walk into the place from Victoria Street and go out the other side into Pelham Street. We used to go in the Bodega first, then the Corn Exchange, Prince Albert, Corner Pin (always full of codgers), and walk back to the Greek before going to the Palais. Happy days Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maid Marion16 2 Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Eviva Taverna brings back lots of memories. I did a short stint there in actual fact. Almost next door to Annabella's and across from the Victoria club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
