Ermou Gyros
Athenian-style gyros at 77 Swan St, cooked on the vertical spit and stuffed into thick, fluffy pita by owners who grew up running souvlaki bars in Greece.
Listing last updated
Ermou Gyros opened on the corner at 77 Swan St in March 2024, run by Athenians who grew up around gyros bars and souvlaki shops in Greece and felt Melbourne's versions were missing something. Here the meat turns on a vertical spit rather than over charcoal, the traditional Athenian way, then gets sliced thin and packed into a thick, fluffy pita.
Beyond the classic souvlakis there are Greek club sandwiches, dips, platters, chips with feta and oregano, and Greek sweets, plus a novelty fish in a cone for the curious. Closed Mondays, generous the rest of the week.
