Halepi is a family run Greek and Cypriot restaurant at 18 Leinster Terrace in Bayswater. Established in 1966, it has the lively, informal character of a traditional taverna, with close tables, warm service and generous dishes that encourage diners to linger over a shared meal.
Cold and hot mezze include hummus, taramasalata, tabouli, Greek salad, grilled halloumi, spanakopita, dolmades and Cypriot pork sausages. Grilled octopus, squid, giant prawns and scallops extend the opening selection into seafood, while pitta bread and fresh salads bring the different plates together.
Charcoal cooking is central to the restaurant, producing lamb and chicken kebabs, chops, sheftalia, souvla and mixed grills seasoned with olive oil, oregano and lemon. Slow cooked kleftiko, moussaka, beef stifado and the signature milk fed lamb offer deeper, comforting flavours rooted in Greek and Cypriot home cooking.
Line caught fish and changing seafood can be grilled simply to preserve their natural character, with rice, roast potatoes and vegetables available alongside. Greek wine, beer and spirits complement the food, while traditional desserts complete an experience built around generous portions, familiar flavours and long standing family hospitality.
Address: 18 Leinster Terrace, Bayswater, London W2 3ET, United Kingdom
