Akropol in Swift Current

This place was awesome and the staff were excellent :)

Pretty chill place the staff is nice and chatty

Great food, great service!

Great food, awesome staff! Went in on a business trip.

Fantastic food Super service Awesome atmosphere Food : 5/5

Update: ordered a large fry and gravy on the side, had enough gravy for not even a third of the fries not sure why theyre so cheap on gravy. Maybe 2oz of gravy if your lucky. Great food though Just ordered a medium spinach pizza from there. He handed me the smallest pizza Ive ever seen thought it was a little personal Pizza so I asked and no it was a medium. Ive never seen a medium Pizza that small before and for almost $30 what a complete rip off I will never go there again. If you want the best pizza in town go to Pizza Stop or red Swan. We really dont go there anyway they just serve old people food. Avoid!

Pizza and service were excellent. Half price wine night on Thursday.

Had company come from BC so booked a reservation for 530 showed up on time ordered right away, food never came till 7 then the waitress came at 720 and asked us to leave at 730, went to owner about it he was arrogant and very rude. Would not recommend this restaurant.

Best place around. Good food.

2nd motorcycle ride to Swift for lunch. Wonderful staff & food

It was very good a little expensive

August 3/24 A restaurant I go to every time I am in Swift Current. Because I grew up in Gull Lake, it was a go-to back in the day, almost every time we visited Swift Current. This is going back more than 50 years now. Obviously we enjoyed it, or we wouldnt have continued to go back. We have a girls weekend once a year now, and it was a place we went to every time we were in town. We were greeted quickly, and taken to a booth up top, last booth at the very back, closest to the washrooms/kitchen. The server brought us waters, and came back soon afterwards to get our order. The coffee and pop came quickly, but the drink my daughter ordered (which was in the menu) did not. The waitress told her she couldnt find the bartender to make the drink, and then after a long period of time, she came back and apologized saying they couldnt find this certain kind of vodka that the drink required. My daughter then ordered a different drink, (which was on the feature table topper), and was made incorrectly, missing one of the ingredients that was listed on the table topper. My daughter felt bad complaining, so she just drank it. - please note, none of this was the servers fault... Our food came fairly fast. I ordered a mozza mushrooms burger with fries. I immediately noticed grease on my plate beside the burger. The mushrooms were oozing in whatever they were cooked in, and the bun was disgustingly soggy. When I went to cut the burger in half, so much more grease came out, absolutely gross. Then after I cut my burger in half, I discovered there was a bit of pink in it. Im not one to freak out about that, and at first there wasnt much, so I ate part of it. As I got closer to the middle, the hamburger patty was cold, and half red. I did not say anything because I was full anyhow. The fries were excellent though! The gravy was terrible, served in a tiny plastic ramikin, it was lumpy, and had no taste. If I could rate my meal, it would be a zero, not a 1 which is the lowest option. My daughter ordered a pizza (she had them before and loved them) so she was looking forward to having it. She asked the server for a little bit of extra sauce. The pizza was served with so much sauce, it was oozing on the plate as she took a piece. It was terrible. Apparently they dont know what a little bit means. She did not complain about this either. My sister had a pizza as well, she didnt say anything about it being really good or really terrible, so I am thinking it was just ok. Note: during this time, the server had come back and filled my pop, and brought coffee. She also asked if everything was alright, (as I said we did not complain), so we said yes. After we were finished, the owner came over and asked how it was. We said it was good (by this time we could tell he was a jerk, and not nice to his servers, we didnt want to get her into trouble because she was awesome, so again we said nothing). Being from out of town, paying for a hotel and food, eating out is definitely the most expensive part of the trip. My sister had said something like that, not meaning his restaurant but just in general, and he went off on her. He angrily (and with a raised voice) said he hoped she wasnt talking about his place, that his prices were very competitive. He went on and on. As I said earlier, we were up top, so the stairs to go down were right there. He was still talking in a raised voice as he walked backwards down the stairs. The three of us just started at each other for a second, like what the hell was that? And since when do owners talk to their patrons like that? A terrible experience. I hope the owner reads this.. I know you probably dont care, but if one person reads this, and decides against going to your establishment, then posting this was worth it. You were terrible to us, and you should be embarrassed. You are not the only restaurant in town.

Great waitress food average

Burger was bland and terrible couldnt even finesh it waitress dident even care or offer anything for compensation seemed to not care at all will not b Goin back

Beef dip was very dry

Always a great experience. Also theyve got the best pizza in town

A great place to eat.

Very good, friendly service. The food can be heavy and sometimes dated. I have always enjoyed the gyro. Food : 3/5

Ive been going to Akropol for years. Always great food and good service. Best place in town!

Predictable old school lunch joint. No surprise, club house sandwich , daily soup. All the usual fare. Food

We looked at the menu and left. I was not impressed.

Akropol pizza cannot be beat. I ordered the classic pepperoni mushroom and it has generous toppings and a lot of cheese.

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening, our meal and the great service. Be sure to try grandmother s Greek pudding for dessert.

The service was excellent. The food was really disappointing. Had a crispy chicken burger and poutine. The fries were absolutely cold, the gravy was good but barely warm and the chicken was really dark and overly crispy, almost like they havent changed the oil in their fryer in quite awhile. I never took it up with the waitress because we were travelers and didnt want to wait for a replacement so we just made the best of it. I did hear the table next to us point out to the waitress that their fries were cold and she said she would pass it on to the cook. This was my first visit but its doubtful I would ever return the next time Im through.

Quaint little lounge, well decorated with a very comfortable atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The food is absolutely worth coming back for.

Best gluten free spinach pizza in Saskatchewan. The gluten free chocolate almond cake is sooo decadent.

Amazing Ambience, Taste and awesome servers and owner !! Had a unique experience.

What a gem in Swift Current. A must go to when you re here. The food is amazing, and this is coming from a fellow Greek.

Great food and service

Been something of a regular here the last few years- I come in and wait around every time I get a haircut just up the block at Central Ave Cuts (I have motion sickness so driving around is problematic for me, Akropol is conveniently located for me to walk to and wait at while my family goes shopping), usually get a Ginger Ale and something light to go with it. Ive always enjoyed the service, the food, and the atmosphere- the staff really couldnt be more kind and accomodating. This time, unfortunately, I wasnt really able to get my usual; Someone else was going to bring the money for the haircut but forgot to, so I just spent my lunch money there and went to Akropol to wait. The staff was very accomodating of my situation- they gave me some water and let me wait around at one of the tables in the lounge, and later someone came over with a Ginger Ale and offered some soup on the house. I guess they remembered me from previous occasions I showed up. I didnt feel comfortable accepting the soup, but theyd already got the Ginger Ale so I had that and later left a tip with what little change I still had on me. I really appreciate the staffs generosity and I think I might bring a little extra next time I show up haha

John makes his rounds to make each guest feel welcome in his establishment.

great food, especially the greek selections. Friendly service. Great atmosphere.

This place is one of a kind. Anytime I m in Swift Current I make sure to get their pizza because there is no other place that I have found that has pizza anywhere near as good as this place. 10/10

Great atmosphere, I d give staff 5 stars, did a great job, but steak was very underwhelming, was it ever dry and tough!! Had coconut pie for dessert, that was great

Great place to eat. A few of us went for supper, all of us loved our dishes. Good portion sizes, fresh ingredients, awesome cooks, and the prices are right. Did I mention the excellent ambience and friendly staff. You cant go wrong eating here. One small critique, please bring in more craft beer on tap.

Excellent food, as always!

Pizza is the best!!

Best pizza in swift current

Awsome place with a warm atmosphere! Great service from cheerfull staff Food

BEST PIZZA IN CANADA. we always make sure to pick up when we are on our way through Swift Current. PLEASE open up in Medicine Hat!

Very busy but had awesome service food was excellent cant wait to go back and try other items

Dietary restrictions: Staff always willing to listen and accommodate any restrictions Kid-friendliness: John and staff love kids!! John has been known to carry the little ones around with parent permission of course to give the parents a chance to eat their meal..and for the older kids their is ALWAYS a treat waiting for them after they finish their food!! Wheelchair accessibility: Have a area where wheelchairs can easily roll up to table!!

Stopped in swift current on the way to Calgary. Had delivered to our room at the holiday inn express. Would highly recommend. Food was delivered hot and delicious!

Menu has great variety and value. Staff are friendly helpful and welcoming with great local owners.

Great meal

Best steak in swift current

Gorgeous family owned restaurants with warm and welcoming atmosphere. The owner is really kind and greeted our group. Food was good and authentic, drinks as well, and since we went for a birthday, they had cake+sparkles. Will definitely come back!

Always wonderful

I like to order out. My Spinach pizza and Spanicopita was rock hard after waiting for 45 minutes for delivery. I spoke with the manager and he told me he didnt need my business ever again.

Was alright, was recommended to me that I order here when I was in town and I wasn t exactly pleased. Filled the void but wasn t anything more than that. The delivery person was nice though.

Been here a few times and its been nice. Recently, we had to spend a few hours here while our car was being serviced since we live out of town. The owner and waitresses were excellent with our kids, helped keep them entertained, and were just generally pleasant even though we werent ordering a ton of stuff. I always recommend akropol!

Great food and wonderful family atmosphere. Would recommend going here again.

Ashley was AMAZING!!!! I had just gotten off a 12 hr shift and she let me in early to the restaurant before open. She got absolutely slammed and kept her awesome demeanour and positive attitude!!! Please treat her as the queen she is. By far my best service

Great atmosphere in the lounge, great authentic menu! The spinach pizza is always a go to when I go there. Great service, and their patio area is pretty awesome.

We are from out of town and we were looking for a good local restaurant. The food and service were excellent. A family business that is worth the visit!

Incredibly kind. Great food. Fast and quality service. Staff treat my grandfather with love and respect. I feel so thankful for their kindness Food : 5/5

Great service, however John can be a little much!! All in fun though. Best place to have a great meal in Swift Current. Food

Great pizza. Got it delivered while staying in town. They forgot my drink, but the pizza more than made up for it

Kid-friendliness: The waiter/waitresses are great with kids! Food

Great local place incredible service Gluten free options Food : 5/5

Friendly servers Great food Recommended dishes

Great service and great food

Our waitress was lovely!

Family operated restaurant serving Greek and Canadian food. Located downtown. Friendly staff, large selection of quality dishes. Food is exceptional!

I moved from Swift Current to Lethbridge about 10 years ago and I have not yet found a good pizza in Lethbridge. I ve always loved your pizza when we lived here so today while driving through Swift Current I just had to order one of your delicious pizzas. It s every bit as delicious as I remembered and I enjoyed every bite! Best pizza ever in my opinion!

Great service and fabulous food. My wife lived in Swift 25 years ago, and always raved about this restaurant. Still the perfect place for an excellent family meal.

Always Great Food, Awsome Service and Atmosphere!!! Send All my Campers there!!! Food

The food was fantastic, the service was phenomenal and the gluten-free free options were just wonderful. The staff were so friendly and thoughtful. We were a party of 8; 4 kids 4 adults and they took excellent care of us. Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options included wings and pizza which I think are harder to find. Loved the wings. Didn t try the pizza but will have to come back to. Kid-friendliness: Our server overheard us saying we didn t want the kids to have pop, and they usually give kudos candy at the end of the meal, so made a point of subtly asking the parents if the kids could have candy

Im new to Swift Current & was looking around for a restaurant to bring my visiting friend to. My hair dresser recommended Akropols. There was no mistake in choosing this restaurant. The food was absolutely DELICIOUS!! The women we sat beside on the patio suggested the chicken wrap. WOW! Went back a week later & had the quesadilla... again WOW! Need I say more.

Tried chicken and pork souvlaki, and the greek chicken. All meats were tender and flavorful, rice moist and well-seasoned. Salads were good. Good portions, gluten-free options. Wide variety on the menu including for those not feeling the Mediterranean vibe. Dining room has nice atmosphere, lounge looks more upscale. Service seemed a little inexperienced but we were well taken care of. Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options

This seems like it s a popular place with the locals. Great menu offerings, decent prices, friendly staff. Worth a visit. Food : 4/5

A must to eat in Swift. Eat here weekly and love it!

I m not one to complain as I have worked in the restaurant industry for a couple years. I was just super upset with my experience with Akropol. To start they raised their prices without updating their online menu. And then when got my food for delivery, the chicken strips had changed from what they were for years, and weren t good quality. I called the restaurant to ask about it and management agreed with me about quality of food and menu not being updated but was quite rude about the whole thing and didn t compensate in any way.

Wow what a meal, wife and I ate here tonight and the food was , Service outstanding and quick as well. Nice food for a good price, not expensive not cheap. Just right. Thanks John (owner) and our waitress (forgot her name) From the 2 Aussies

Good service even when the restaurant is packed! Very good meal times too especially for it being so busy. Was almost a full house and it wasnt much different than when it is only half full. Good job servers and kitchen! The owner, John, evem came out in the middle of a busy Saturday supper rush to meet and greet. Very nice

Food was delicious, service great and atmosphere even better.

Such a wonderful restaurant! Fabulous food and wonderful staff! John makes everyone feel at home. Thanks for the great dining experience!

The owner John made our visit with my four kids unforgettable. We love the service and family friendly atmosphere. Thank you so much!

Delicious food! The spinach pizza was exceptional.

Food is good, atmosphere is great. Service is really good, even when they are busy they always check in the customer to make sure everything is alright. Will go back again :)

Excellent customer service Very delicious salmon skewer I had there. Food : 5/5

Lived up to its reputation. Food was amazing and service 2nd to none! Will definitely be back!! Food : 5/5

Akropol never disappoints. John and staff are welcoming and happy energy. Lots of lunch options, and if youre going with a side, try the garlic parm fries. They are really good. Ive reviewed Akropol just over a year ago, but once again, heres another 5 star review update. This time it was an adults only evening so we took to the lounge. We reserved a table for 8 and were seated in their patio area that is enclosed for the winter months. Great atmosphere. Christ.as cocktail menu has a lot of unique and cute options. (The grinch is super tasty) Once again, the meal did not disappoint. The main course options come with a starter and two sides. There are so many amazing choices. Great service :)

Nothing but great things to say.

Absolutely the best!

Great service and amazing pizza

Delicious food and excellent services.

From out of town, was recommended to try this place from a local. Had the spinach pizza and it was amazing! Loaded with cheese and spinach, highly recommend this restaurant! Ive come back here multiple times, each time Im working in the area

Excellent. What gem to find to have lunch. The dry ribs are the best you will ever have. Definitely will be back everytime we are in Swift Current!

I want to give a shout out to John at the AK. He is amazing, I called in for a pickup order tonight, such great customer service he gets a 10/10 the food was amazing, best burger I ve had in a very long time, kitchen staff gets 10/10 also, highly recommend the bacon mozza burger, won t be disappointed, 100/10 keep up the great work John

Greatest place. Great people, good food and wonderful atmosphere

Great food and very friendly staff. Keep up the great work!

It taste so good.

First time being here and highly recommend this place we are from Calgary and stayed in swift current for the night.food is amazing staff Is amazing as well.

It was edible Vegtables were way overcooked They were mush Pork cutlate was burnt so they just covered it in gravy Salad was good and rice pudding was yummy Should have said something but with family had not seen in a long time so just ate it. Will be back this summer but wont go there again.

They are very responsive when it comes to their customers

Came to Swift Current from Toronto on a business trip. I cant remember the name of the burger but it was their BIGGEST ONE. It tasted amazing (and I ate all of it). And I love most that its a family restaurant. I doubt Ill ever be back in Swift current but if I do come back, Im def eating here again.

A great place to hang out with friends. The staff are amazing.

Food was excellent!

Delicious! 10/10 would recommend. Amazing Food, great atmosphere (we sat on the lounge side), and awesome service! Prices were also reasonable. Ill be back!

Great place for lunch couldnt finish what they gave us real good value for your money

The service was alright. I feel like we waited a long time to actually get our food, even though it wasnt super busy (but we were also very hungry, so that might have influenced us). BUT the honey mustard chicken salad was INCREDIBLE. So good that my friend brought a small container of the dressing home so she could eat it again. Also! Lots of options for dairy free, gluten free and other dietary restrictions. Everyone can eat here

As always, I enjoy the food here! It is very delicious and well made. I find the portions just a little small for the price. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming! They do an excellent job of making you feel welcome.

Food and beverages were great in downtown Swift Current!

I went there short in time. I had an appointment in 35 mins, there staff had a pizza on my table, feed and cashed out in 30 mins! Cant beat that kind of service, and the food was totally worth it!

We arrived in Swift Current and had to find somewhere for dinner. This place had a great menu with lots of options for us and the people we were traveling with so we decided to check it out. Was definitely the right choice. The pizza was amazing, full of toppings and cheese. We had also asked for a village Greek salad instead of the one on the menu and they had no problem to make the change. There was a charge but that was no problem. The people we were with ordered wine and the one they wanted was sold out but the restaurant manager came over and offered another one with a sample for the same price. Great experience and will return on our next adventure out that way.

Went got lunch here as i read some of the reviews... Boy am i glad i did. The burger and soup were delicious, the spinach pizza was incredible as well. Service was fast and friendly. Would recommend for sure!

Always has awesome service and nice company

Best chicken souvlaki Ive ever had. Great waitress. And atmosphere. Everything was tastings amazing. Need one in Winnipeg

The food was excellent The service was good but a bit slow

Meh is the best I can say . Food was ok . Staff was very friendly thou

My house special pizza was delicious! Never disappoints

We had an amazing experience! The food was excellent and the staff were so kind and patient. We dined in with a small child and an infant, which can be very intimidating, but we were made to feel like family. The owner even charmed our 4 year old with a special treat. 100% recommend going to this restaurant. We will definitely be back!

Food is wonderful! Tasty, good portions and great service.

Awesome food, wonderful servers and hospitality that is above and beyond any restaurant I have been to!

Great food and amazing staff!

BEST pizza I have ever eaten, anywhere. We had the chicken and bacon pizza and it was so delicious. The crust was AMAZING! Ill definitely go back.

I definitely do not recommend this restaurant. The food was below average, but not terrible. It was disappointing. The calamari was rubbery. The Greek salad was overly salty and was covered in shredded cheese (not feta cubes), and mixed with what appeared to be green pepper and white onion toppings for a pizza. The souvlaki chicken was ok, if not a little dry. I very rarely mention these kinds of things to the server, but I felt it could have been better. When I told our server about our concerns in a very polite manner, she sort of shrugged, as if agreeing with our opinion. BUT, THE WORST PART WAS THE OWNER REACTION. He practically stormed over to our table and quickly became very defensive. He said they were not really classified as a Greek restaurant despite the menu items. He went on to explain to me that a real Greek salad was a Horiatiki salad. He further said their restaurant had been in business since 1962 and that they needed to save money on ingredients. At no time did he apologize for our experience. His response to our comments was inexcusable. He could have simply apologized and said good night, but chose to tell me how wrong I was and educate me.

This place is Awesome! One of Swift Currents hidden treasures. The food is delicious, John, his family and staff are super friendly. Always a great experience!

Great place for a cocktail and delicious food. The gluten free options were a little limited but the people working there are very undrrstanding and accommodating. When I asked about gluten free beer I was told that it might be there next time I visit. Great experience!! I will be back next time Im in town which is a tough find when you have to eat gluten free. The spicy mango matgarita is a must try!

Fantastic food! Wow

This has been one of my favourite places to meet my friends and family for years! Delicious food and great service.

Wow that was a great time! Friendly service with terrific food. The Sangria topped it all off!

Chicken souvlaki and rice platter was super flavourful. Dry ribs and spanakopita were also very tasty, especially with a side of tzatziki!

We went there in 2020 the first time, service, food, servants, everything that you will appreciate! We will come back for authentic Greek food. It was tasty!

Best spinach pizza in town

Best spinach pizza in town

Always amazing service by staff and especially by owner. Will continue to give my recommendation for anyone looking for a great restaurant to visit while in Swift Current.

First time here, looking for pizza while we were in town. We ordered an AK Special and it was exactly what we were looking for. Good quality ingredients, good cheese, generous quantity and in good proportion, really tasty. We wouldve liked a little more sauce but by no means was this dry and the sauce was excellent. We picked up so this was even after it had sat for at least 15 minutes. The in-house experience would be even better.

Food and service were excellent. The prices are very reasonable. The cranberry, apple, brute chicken was something new for me and glad I tried it. Food : 4/5

Kid-friendliness: Great food and great service. Never had a bad experience or meal!

This place was good until my last service here my server jonnie did have a great laugh at my experience tho cursing at me in broken German. Will never come here again. Swift current where life doesnt make sense at the akropol.

Terrible service never going here agian thanks for the beer with stuff on the inside of glass from the blond girl

Ackropol Special n Spinach Pizza!!! Once you try it you will fall in love with it.. good luck finding anything close anywhere else. Food : 5/5

Was a great surprise! Awesome service and some great comfort food!

Brittany was maybe the best server of all time.

We are in town to go watch the rodeo and we were looking for a place to celebrate our wedding anniversary, we always like to support local and we were not disappointed! Amazing service, delicious food, and welcoming atmosphere.

Was in Swift Current for work.. and someone in town told me about this place.. ended up going two days in a row. The food tastes amazing, fresh, well prepared and the way they bring that sizzling steak ahh man I already miss it. The owner John, his family and the people working there are awesome, energetic and full of smiles. Really enjoyed my time and I can t wait to go back there for John s special Baklava. Keep it up guys and hope to return soon for some steak

Great service and our food was awesome! We had a Ceasars salad, regular spinach pizza and a gluten free spinach pizza. All were totally FaBby!

Everything was very good, great value and service. Did find the shrimp a bit overcooked and chewy but the flavour was great! My 2 companions were thrilled with Everything. Would definitely go again and recommend.

Great food. Super friendly and helpful staff.

The pizza (bacon and chicken), baked fettuccine Alfredo and souvlaki were huge portions and SO delicious!! They do an AMAZING job catering to Celiac sufferers - the hostess called the owner at home to confirm the ingredients in the salad dressing (which he makes). Such hospitable staff! This is the best restaurant in Swift Current!

Driving across Canada in July, we were very happy to find the Akropol would do Take Out food. The young woman, properly masked, who took our order at the front desk was very pleasant, very helpful, and even met us outside the restaurant to give us our order. Food was great. So on our way back in Sept., we stopped again to get Take Out. The fellow at the desk was unmasked. We (retired folk with health issues) pleasantly asked him to put on his mask. He was very aggressive in his reply that he certainly would not put on a mask. Obviously he did not want our patronage. So we left. The next day the government of Saskatchewan returned the mask mandate in public spaces... Surely owners of restaurants want customers and staff to feel comfortable about Covid safety... only common sense, respect and courtesy.

Stopped along the way while traveling cross-country. Normally I dont order pasta/lasagna dishes from places but dang am I happy to have listened to my intuition on that one!!! Hands down one of the best lasagnas of my life!!! Husband got the reuben with fries, of course I had some bites so I can attest to a very tasty sandwich and literally the *perfect* fries. Wow. Youve made us very happy travelers!!! P.s we respect bodily autonomy and would be just as happy if everyone were maskless :) God Bless

There was a waitress drinking in the bar while I was there. Apparently she found it appropriate to yell at my friends and I saying she was going to fight us out front. We arent from Swift, we dont know her; so 100% will not be returning.

Took a few days went on a road trip to Moose Jaw and Swift Current. Had dinner at Akropol in Swift Current on October 7th. I had the Lasagne, husband had the Greek ribs. Loved the Lasagne, husband said the ribs were good, just a touch overcooked to his liking. Staff were very friendly. Restaurant was very clean. Covid protocol went quick, easy. Overall a great experience. Definitely would go back.

Excellent service and the food was delicious!!!

Had a great meal in a nice local restaurant which is obviously very popular with its local clientelle. Great Pork Chops, and great service from really nice people. A great stop if you are on the road and hungry,

Very tasty food and great environment

new style is just OK... but its beautiful. i just miss the divier side of Swift.

Great family owned restaurant! John and his staff do a bang-up job! Great food!

Awesome pizza!

Over priced pizza, over cooked, thin crust ,very little topping.

A wonderful roast beef supper to be had and great service
