A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"I had dinner with friends. We felt so welcomed by the owners and friendly staff. An evening that made us want to come back for more delicious fresh Greek authentic food. Wonderful Greek background music set the warm atmosphere. I highly recommend KAFENEIO."
"What a lovely Greek bistro. After 4 visits, I'll keep on coming back. Family run with personal service and home from home vibes. Great staff. Quaint patio for good weather and cosy indoors for other days. Enjoyed every meal I've had so it's always a good choice. Friendly, fun, good food. Ideal for a date or catching up friends."
"Thank you Terry and Natalie for your warm hospitality. My 7-year-old wanted to experience the Greek plate breaking tradition. They went out of their way to help us find plates and hosted a private Sunday lunch for us. Amazing Greek food and deserts."
"Such a cute little Greek restaurant with a really nice vibe to it. Great food, and amazing service! I’ll definitely be back."
"The baklava cheesecake at Kafeneio is pure indulgence. The ambience is just as delightful: elegant yet cozy, making it the kind of place you want to linger. The friendly staff elevate the experience, genuinely welcoming, attentive without being intrusive, and their warmth makes every visit feel special."
"We have lived in the neighbourhood just over a year now and we hadnt yet eaten here.... You know the one thing I will never do, is rate a place based on a busy holiday. We had the pleasure of lunching at Kafeneio today and it was busy for Mothers Day .... but I must say that it was lovely . Just as anywhere else today, I think restaurants were overwhelmed and maybe our food took a little longer than usual. but what we got, was absolutely delicious and what made our visit so pleasant was the incredible owner, Terry and her staff, especially Prim. So sweet and so friendly .. you feel like family from the moment you walk through the door We will definitely be back again soon!!!!! Thank you for a lovely mothers day lunch Oh! And because of all the amazing reviews of the Baklava cheesecake here, I decided to take a slice home for a later dessert"
"This quiet place in Linden is quite unassuming. when we went it was quiet and slowly filled up. the food was good and compared to the "other cafe whippet" the portion sizes were good. this place is of Greek origin so the food is that way inclined. Had it not for a glum male waiter this place would have scored a 5*. we had avo toast Great eggs well done. Burger was good. the coffee was better than most. the letdown was the chocholate marble cake. Not your usual fare. mid priced worth a visit"
"Found the most cozy Greek spot today. The outdoor seating is surrounded by plants and feels so peaceful. We shared the veg platter—so fresh and tasty! The best part? Meeting the owner, Terry. She is an absolute super host and made the whole experience feel special. If you're looking for great food and even better hospitality, this is the place! #GreekFood #HiddenGem #Vegetarian #GreatAmbiance #SupportLocal"
