305 Lancaster St W, Kitchener, ON N2H 4V4, Canada
Relaxed, family-owned mainstay since 1994 preparing souvlaki & other homestyle Greek dishes.
Decided to try this spot on a whim and it was well worth it. The food was excellent and the servers were all so friendly. Would go back.
Had chicken wrap with French fries delicious
Tasty brunch with great service! Usually don't go to Greek restaurants for brunch but this place has changed my mind!
This is a must go to restaurant. Party of 8 seated immediately. The breakfast choices were delicious sounding and our choices absolutely wonderful. Waitstaff was so courteous and friendly. Primeal bacon, can’t find in the States was yummy. Prices are reasonable and portions were very generous. Atmosphere was nice. Parking was not too plentiful as it is shared with other businesses. I would absolutely go again.
We came here for dinner tonight unexpectedly. The service was very friendly and quick. We were not disappointed by the food in the least. On par pricing and definitely homemade authentic recipes used. Homemade tzatziki sauce 🤩
Some amazing and fresh Greek food! As soon as I walked in here I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly and homey type restaurant. It was very welcoming. The food was crazy fresh. I ordered a chicken souvlaki pita with fries/side gravy/Greek salad and everything was spot on in flavor. The fries and gravy were absolutely delicious, I have no idea how they make their fries but they are crunchy on the outside with a soft centre and the gravy! I want to be in a bath with that gravy, it had a great mix of meats and saucy goodness. The wrap was killing it on the flavor and had a good amount of chicken/veg stuffing with an amazing tzatziki sauce. Greek salad was refreshing with the dressing, amazing olives, tomatoes, and cheese. Everything was, hands down, perfect and you can definitely taste the homemade/non frozen food from here. I also didn't feel that sick or curdled stomach feeling even though I was absolutely stuffed and needed a wheel barrel to get out! Staff were super nice and professional. Above and beyond service. Thank you Kypreos, I will definitely be back. Keep that fresh and homemade taste up!
Food was good. Our waitress recommended the calamari said she eats it herself and I was not disappointed at all. My friend got a big serving of spaghetti and finished their dish which speaks for itself. The sever was kind, funny, helpful and very likeable. They have a nice menu. Everyone there seemed happy. Glad to have stopped by.
We cleberated with a group of 20 and had a great time. The waitress was excellent, the service and the food was great. The dishes were a good price and a generous portion. There's parking at the back and washrooms available too. Wheelchair accessible. All the dishes were liked by all the guests. Great job on the food!
Always a great meal and friendly service!
I had a bowl of turkey soup and a turkey pot pie that was more a soup than a turkey pot pie was not impressed.. I will not be returning.
One of my Favourite Breakfast spots!
Forever and ever consistent level of service and quality of food served
Great food. Service and atmosphere! Kid-friendliness: Our whole family enjoys dining here. Fam fav! Food : 5/5 |
I havent been in a restaurant in years where everyone seems so happy to be there! From the wait staff to the customers, smiles abound. The food is excellent as well!
A great Greek food place, with a friendly atmosphere.
Private areas available for meetings. Great breakfast and friendly staff
This place has not changed in a while, average eatery.
In from Hamilton again to meet a BFF for breakfast again in 2024. July, August, September and yesterday/November 14th.
Very convenient place to get some food. Food tastes very good as well!
Been here twice. Great service from the staff and so far never disappointed in the food.
Lovely Service by a lovely family, good food and clean. Cant ask for more really!
I can t see anything negative about our experience. The food was amazing, the service was excellent. The owners and staff of this restaurant one above and beyond.
Food was tasty, portions were generous and reasonably priced, and most of all service was impeccable. The young girl who served us, Olivia, was patient with the kids, quick to answer questions, and very kind to all.
Excellent chicken souvlaki and gyros dinners. Our kids also loved their fish and chips - tasty French fries! The servers were very friendly and provided great service. Thank you!
It doesnt take long before this place feels like home. The food, service, and vibe are predictable; in all the ways you want a restaurant to be. Food : 5/5
So good! Great gem in a little town. Very kind staff.
My daughter favorite breakfast place is every Friday after a physiotherapy appointment .
Always delicious.
Great place to stop by for brunch, breakfast served all day and delicious. Not rushed, a quaint place, great place to chill or meet up for a coffee.
Great food and prices. The service was amazing! Loukia is so kind and attentive! The ambiance is perfect for a family breakfast.
Staff was very friendly and the food was fantastic. Definitely be back again and recommend to friends.
The best service from staff and first time I tried Gyro! I am pleased and I will be back in future! Thank you so much to the manager Andrea Ioannou
Good breakfast and great service
The table edges are tacky/sticky and the restroom door as well. Would benefit from a wipe down with a degreaser. On a more pleasant note, food and service were great
I had the eggs Benedict and an excellent breakfast. Cant go wrong with any authentic eastern Mediterranean flavors and well blended with a Canadian theme. Highly recommended.
Always enjoy the food and family atmosphere. Soullvlaki dinner tonight nomnom and a beverage.
Nice place with awesome staff and good food. The pacing of food coming out was really great. The greek apps and salads were very tasty. The meat was a bit on the dry side but still good. They have some amazing dessert options too, so make sure to ask! Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie options
Good food, reasonable price. Parking: Parking beside restaurant in a plaza. Food : 5/5 |
After a few bad experiences in a row at our usual family restaurant and breakfast place, we decided to look for a new go to. We tried Kypreos and werent disappointed. We went at a peak time on a Saturday when the restaurant was busy and we were greeted and welcomed immediately when we arrived. We were seated right away. Our server came by right away to introduce himself and take drink orders. Drinks arrived. Our server was excellent, he answered questions about the menu, noted one of our partys food allergy, and was very attentive throughout our visit. Everyone enjoyed their food -- whether they ordered breakfast or lunch. I had the gyro on a pita with a Greek salad, both of which were excellent. We will be going back again and again. Parking: The lot looks like chaos but its fine. The lot looks busier than it is. Kid-friendliness: This family restaurant gets it. Kids have short attention spans and not a.ton of patience when theyre hungry. Kypreos makes sure you get fed in a reasonable amount of time.
We went twice. 1st time was a large group, so the fact I was forgotten while everyone around me was enjoying their dinner. The second time, much smaller group and I was still forgotten we didnt get our appetizers till everyone was done their dinners .
Our party of 8 enjoyed every minute of lunch experience, from the great food to the thoughtful service.
Despite being packed the service was quick. Staff were cheerful. Portion sizes are large.
We were looking for a place to eat before a show at Centre in the Square and randomly found this place and we are so glad we did! Great food, great prices and the service was exceptional! We had the most genuinely friendly and attentive server, a very nice young lady. We are back in Kitchener for another show on the 9th of May, and we will be eating here again!
Love the food here especially breakfast
Attended a special dinner with my sorority. The chicken meal was the best I have ever had. The chicken was so tender.
Kypreos is solid. We mainly go for breakfast but have had supper a couple of times and it is always great. Real food.
Its my favourite breakfast in town!! Friendly staff and their breakfast home fries are awesome!
My hubby and I enjoy Greek food and if you like souflaki youll love Kypreos chicken souflaki plate! The greek salad had a refreshing taste with light dressing as they used mixed greens and not the regular iceberg lettuce most places use. The chicken was tender and tasty, the rice and lemon potatoes were exceptional. Our server was very pleasant and service was quick even though the restaurant was very full. You have to try their baklava and carrot cheesecake for dessert...absolutely yummy. Our tummies are filled and satisfied. Thank you Kypreos!
Our bridal shower event held on Saturday was managed beautifully by Andrea and her team. Everything was perfect! The food was outstanding and all of our guests were so pleased. The service was beyond expectation and every detail was taken are of. We couldnt have been happier.
The food is absolutely delicious. The service is the same.
First time visiting, will be back & recommend.
Wonderful breakfast spot for introducing friends to
Always good food, and lots of it!
Great food. Decent prices. Breakfast was amazing.
Worst Schnitzel I ve ever had. Hunters gravy was lumpy and tasted terrible. Mixed veg looked gross like they were sitting in a steam table forever. Server was great.
The restaurant is very clean, well looked after, and maintained. The waitress was a real pleasure to serve the number of women we had in our group. I will return more often than not
Great service. Very helpful staff who went above and beyond. The food was great.
Thank you for making our large (20 people) family dinner so enjoyable . Service was great, server amazing. Parking: Parking at side and back of building. Lots at the side
Great place to have breakfast and lunch. Fast & efficient. Always a Great Meal.
I felt myself at home - wonderful pancakes, a very attentive service, relaxed atmosphere! Thank you!
I think this is my wife and mines favourite restaurant, the servers are always friendly, the food is always great. They always seem to remember all their regulars and there is a very familial feeling throughout the place. The only problem I have with it is we don t live closer to the location.
They make the best homemade soups here daily
I don t often write reviews, however, every single time I come to Kypreos, the staff are so extremely kind and accommodating. Thank you!
VERY GOOD PLACE. ALL THE TIME MEET WITH FRIENDS
Come here often with a large group. Great service and good food. Good value.
Excellent breakfast choice. Great decor. Sausage, home fries and coffee were all perfect. Eggs were perfect.
So good!! I love it!! You will go home with happy full belly
Fast and friendly with excellent food.
This is a true Kitchener gem. I grew up in the area and hadnt been in awhile. We went for lunch and it was still as good as remember from 25+ years ago. Highly recommend. Food was awesome, service was even better!
Take my mom once a week for breakfast/lunch. She lookes forward to it and the staff always welcomes her. The staff is great and anything we ordered is always good.
We had dinner there Feb 10/24. Wonderful food, service and experience. Our waitress was Loukia. Loukia recommended the Baklava, a desert her grandmother makes. It was delicious. We will definately go back
The young ladies that worked there were very nice and very respectful and handled my order very well, but there is one problem. The portion size is horrible. There is hardly any rice. The chicken was extremely dry and they gave me a salad that looked like I could ve picked it in my backyard, the food quality is horrible. a chicken souvlaki with two chicken skewers could barely feed a little 4 year old . I paid $30+ For a horrible quantity of food it is not worth 30$
Great food. Reasonable price. Amazing family running this restaurant
I love taking my two little ones here always a great atmosphere to eat. The waitress here are very professional and friendly. It s hard to find good places like this so for this reason I give it a high rating.
Food was absolutely delicious and affordable. Such a family feel to the place. Everyone seemed to know everybody. Staff was outstanding with service, especially considering the place was packed and lined out the door. Highly recommend.
Amazing customer service. Our meals were amazing and great portions. Highly recommend and reasonably priced.
A good breakfast planned ahead. Good food and fast service
It was great. There was 41 people and they took wonderful care of us
Great breakfast spot, it was very busy but still got our food in a reasonable amount of time.
Great menu variety for breakfast, and fast and friendly service from a wonderful family business!
Love their home fries, friendly service, delicious food
Delicious
Lovely breakfast here this morning with super friendly service!
BEST breakfast around, and Greek food is amazing too. Always friendly and fast breakfast service. Sausages, hash browns, and halloumi are awesome. I ve ordered the Greek platters a few time and they re always on time and serve so many. Love bringing people here, always a good local experience. Highly recommend, this will quickly become part of your local rotation!!
Food was great...service was amazing...our waitress was soo friendly and accommodating!
Food was good and lots on our plates
Delicious breakfast and super nice staff! Would definitely recommend for a good, hearty meal!
They where busy but service was excellent and food was delicious
Nice little restaurant surprise for my wife and I when we ventured in here and had a thoroughly enjoyable lunch..
Dont know whats going on with this place but just had one of the worst breakfast ive ever recieved at a restaurant. The home fries and meat were so overcooked that they were unedible.We are semi regulars here and will most likely give it another try since the waitresses are fantastic but they really need to look at their kitchen staff
I have heard so many good things about this restaurant I finally tried it this morning for the first time, it was the worst breakfast I have ever had, I will not be going back again.
Had 1 egg and bacon breakfast. Service was fast and the food good.
Great Food....Amazing service
Yet another fantastic meal. The club sandwich and fries were perfect.
Delicious food, generous portions and excellent service with a family atmosphere.
Great breakfast spot in Kitchener! Huge menu. Great service. Food is quick and delish.
Food was good but not worth the price.
Fantastic
Great Breakfast
Good Greek food experience, very comfortable environment, polite employees
Excellent service and excellent food.
The staff was very nice! The breakfast was very good
There was a musty smell in the restaurant. We sat near the entrance, the food was really good but the musty smell was a little off putting.
Havent been back here since Covid began. Went there tonight, service fabulous! Waitress super efficient and polite! Food was way to much to eat not that Im complaining. For those of you who have never been here put it on your must go to list! Been going here for well over 10 years. Dont miss out!
Great family run business. We have been going here for years and years
Had a great take out lunch from this place, garden salad and a chicken souvlaki skewer, very good.
Great food, great service and great value. Had a breakfast option for lunch, with plenty of coffee. Added a black tea, carrot and ginger soup to make it a fantastic meal. Make sure you come early, as this place is a popular spot for people of all ages.
We have a group of seniors (wonderful family and long time friends) that are meeting Thursday nights once a month for supper. The restaurant staff always greet us with a smile, the waitresses are absolutely amazing and the food is delicious. Prices are reasonable and it is the perfect time to catch up with each other in a restaurant where you can actually hear each others conversations. Best bang for your buck at Kipreos. In our opinion, you cant go wrong at Kipreos! Dietary restrictions: I am Diabetic and have never had options to eat.
Great food, even better staff! Its definitely a restaurant Ill be going back to for a long time!
Always a great breakfast, dinner portions are large. I love that its owner operator. You will literally see her waiting tables with a smile. Ive been a patron for 7+ years. Its nice to have a consistent place that lasts.
Great family run restaurant...delicious food..
Best Greek Salad.....with no exception. Fast service. Friendly welcoming feel. Food going to other tables looked very good as well.
They have excellent food and really friendly service...lll be back Food portions are generous and if you dont see what you like.... ask the server, they will try to acomadate you if possible .
You feel like family and you eat like family. Good quality ingredients prepared with care, classics from Greece and some fusion for the locals here. Great for lunch, lots of indoor seating.
We had a family 1st birthday party. The place was amazing, the staff were awesome and food was delicious. I would definitely be back for some amazing Greek food:)
Just had a luncheon today for 26 ladies...the service was amazing and food delicious. Thank you to the staff for treating us so well. Highly recommend everything about Kypreos! Vegetarian options: Lots of choices! Parking: Great parking!
The food is good, the prices are fair and the service is fantastic!!!!
Great honest food, wonderful options, and very friendly staff
Great food with a bit of extra sauce is very enjoyable. Very friendly service and a relaxing atmosphere. Parking: Its right behind the store. You cant miss it.
Mmmmm brunch
Delicious food and amazing employees. Absolutely loved the meal and everyone there made us feel so welcome.
My boys took my wife and I for a dinner. Our first time here and we enjoyed every bit of our stay. Brea the server was very friendly and attentive. Stelios the owners son came out from the back and checked our table and chatted with us to ensure every thing was okay. We enjoyed the food and customer service. We highly recommend it and we will definitely coming back again.
Nice quaint restaurant that offers excellent variety for Sunday breakfast. Service is always top notch.
I was a first time customer today, as I work at near by. I visited around 12:30pm and I was greeted by a friendly wave from a very nice lady. I sat myself at a table and was greeted promptly. I am as asked how I was doing and noted wow it is hot out there with in minutes my server brought me a nice ice cold water, which I enjoyed immediately. I placed my order and had also ordered a Lg Greek salad to go. The food was great and arrived in no time. The server told me she had kept my to-go salad cold in the fridge in that back. That was absolutely thoughtful and greatly appreciated with out even asking. I just wanted to say thank you to Andrea, as I felt at home during my first visit. I love Greek food and as I said, I work in the neighborhood and WILL be back. Thank you as well for a nice atmosphere. Kid-friendliness: I noticed many tables had adults with kids and they seemed to like the place.
Excellent service and friendly staff
Best breakfast place in my area! The service is absolutely outstanding. Your coffee cup will never be empty!
Amazing service, delicious food. Came here to take my parents and brother to some food and the wait staff were extremely pleasant. The owners son even came to the table and spoke to us. Would definitely recommend and will be back again soon.
great place! has been my brunch spot with my family for years. service has always been incredibly friendly :)
Large breakfast portion.
An exceptional breakfast meal. Taste quality with impeccable service. Always on top.
Excellent breakfast
Tasty and filling breakfast that arrived very quickly.
Always delicious here. Portions are large but every bite is great. Best home made liver and onions that I Love. Daily specials are on the board. Wheelchair access at the back of building. Closes Sunday at 2:30 Food
Quality homestyle meals, busy local restaurant been here for years and clearly the local go to spot. Prices very fair and excellent service. I would go back without a second thought, a pleasure.
You just cant go wrong here.
My son and I were on our way to the university and stopped in to Kypreos for a late lunch. We were greeted and seated by Andrea (super friendly and welcoming). The food was superb. I had gyro pita and added a salad....OMG, it was the freshest salad Ive ever had, I couldnt get over it. The gyro was delicious. My son ordered the daily special (pan seared pickerel) and he loved it. Kypreos will be our new regular dining when we come to visit my son at the University! It was a pleasure meeting you, Andrea and your son, thank you so much for your hospitality! We will see you soon!!
Always delicious.
Held a meeting here and it went perfectly. Andrea is a gracious and attentive host. The food was excellent. One guest had food allergies and had no problem finding a meal. I cant wait to return
The servers where so friendly it seemed like home.
Best breakfast nook in town. Reasonable prices.
Best restaurant in KW. Food is great and staff are very attentive
I ordered the chicken souvlaki and Greek salad for takeout.. I had to rush off before it was ready. 3 hours later they unexpectedly made me a fresh order. I had only asked for them to heat up the pita! Amazing customer service!
Good food and excellent service.
Great staff, super friendly. Clean, neat and nice atmosphere. Had the gyros dinner and it was.....good. It wasnt bad but below avg for sure (in my opinion). Not saying I wouldnt go back but Id certainly not order this again. Parking: Strip mall parking lot right next door. Kid-friendliness: Family restaurant.
Excellent breakfast and great service - check it out for yourself!
Great meal, large portions. Quick and friendly service.
Great breakfast spot and a neighbourhood institution! Extremely quick service -- sometimes youll get your meal in a couple of minutes! Nice price-point as well (2 egg breakfast special, which includes choice of meat + homefries + toast) and coffee is around $15 after tax).
Just a nice place with friendly servers.
Just had breakfast there today. I tried Oktoberfest sausage breakfast while my spouse enjoyed the meatlovers. Delicious, fresh, hot. Service was wonderful. Will be back again ( and again...). Thank you Kyprios.
We had a club meeting with 28 attendees. Great location with separate room. Excellent efficient service. Superb food. Full recommendations.
Amazing athletic experience
Their breakfast are amazing. The cook nailed it out of the park.
Always drove past this place thinking it as a small takeout spot. Went inside and it was huge. As for food, great appetizers and mains (chicken souvlaki plate) with good quantity. Food
The food was very good and the service was excellent.
All menu items are really good but love their breakfast and coffee. The service is always great.
2023-11-12: i have returned several times since my original review. Food remains awesome, especially for the price. I saw some new staff today, which is somewhat odd - historically their staff is very, very stable. It was louder than usual today, making conversation difficult. The place is still very clean, the staff remains friendly and professional. I will continue to return. __ I generally go in a large group, so service can be a little slow. The staff is great, the food is good and the portions are generous. Ill be back.
We drove from out of town to visit a different Greek restaurant in the region, but found that restaurant to be closed on Sundays! Our fault of course for not checking, but decided to try Kypreos nearby to satisfy our Greek food cravings. We were so glad we did! The food was very good - we ordered calamari and saganaki apps to share, then souvlaki plates for our mains. My husband absolutely loves saganaki, and said it was one of the best hes had, and Id have to agree, from the bite I was able to pry from his hands! Everything we ordered was VERY good, and portions were plentiful! Lots of leftovers to take home and enjoy later. Our server was excellent also! I wish I could remember her name (petite blonde young lady) but she was always there whenever we needed her, got our order 100% correct and timed perfectly, and so very friendly! Its also clear that the serving staff works as a team, which is really helpful to the overall experience. Thanks so much for a wonderful lunch today! We will be back for sure.
Kypreos. The best experience for breakfast I have ever had. I am from out of town, and being introduced to this awesome Greek family restaurant that also caters to weddings and special events has been heaven sent. I strongly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys a home-cooked breakfast. The hostess, Andrea is so friendly and cares about your visit. And her daughter sets the stage for her mother to serve you. If nothing else, the treatment of the family staff is priceless. Oh, and did I mention the price is also family oriented. Thank you to Kypreos, for a life altering breakfast experience that I shall cherish for eternity.
Went in at the slow time, 3:00 pm on a Saturday. My hubby and I were immediately greeted with a smile. I ordered the gyro wrap and ceaser salad and my guy ordered the club sandwich with fries. Wow! Generous portions and our food was so tasty.
Breakfast here . Wow! Honestly, I could just go for the potato s. They are soaked and fried, so the skin gets so crispy it s amazing.
Great stuff and good atmosphere but , we ordered a gyro dinner and it was not so good. I would say the idea is good but ingredients are not so much. I definitely would not recommend this meal.
Very rarely does a restaurant exceed my expectations! This is what makes family run restaurants what its all about!
Lately, I have been doing the takeout thing due to having places to go. The dining room was very busy, but I carefully meandered myself up to cash! The cashier was very personable and greeted me quickly. I asked for a menu, and even though she did not mention the specials, until I asked, she did offer me water and gave me an estimated wait time. All in all, the service was great! And the Alfredo Special was delicious!
Service was excellent, food was amazing!
Great food, excellent service time and time again. Highly recommend as they never disappoint!
