Andy's Taverna

A charming, cheerful and homely little Greek taverna off Camden’s main drag, Andy’s is a local classic with more than 50 years’ service under its belt. The menu offers a whistle-stop tour of the Aegean at wallet-friendly prices, with a whole heap of hot and cold mézedes preceding meaty stalwarts ranging from beef stifado, pork afelia and sheftalia to grills, kebabs and steaks served with Greek salad. Also check out the selection of seafood – deep-fried squid, tsipoura (oven-baked sea bream), xifias (swordfish), lavraki (sea bass) – plus the tempting array of sticky Greek pastries to finish. During the week you can get a cut-price three-course lunch for under a tenner – just the ticket if you fancy catching some rays in Andy’s white-walled courtyard.
