Ambrosia Greek Street Food in York has quickly made a mark as a must-visit culinary gem in the bustling Shambles market. Patrons rave about their gyros, likening them to the best they've had in the UK. Thomas M. Witt lauds the chicken wrap for its consistently juicy meat and fresh veggies, complemented by seasoned fries that deliver exceptional value for money.

Another highlight is the souvlaki platter, a crowd favorite as noted by Sam Wiens, who reminds visitors of its sharing potential, ideal for a romantic outing. The food is not just delicious but also generously portioned, as Eva Lazar emphasizes."

Aurora Rory Buccheri points out the delightful mixed grill, noting value but suggesting a balance with meat over chips. Lidia Ivanova encapsulates the sentiment perfectly, calling the gyros the best she’s ever encountered. The atmosphere is casual yet vibrant, making it a great spot to indulge without breaking the bank.

In a city rich with history, Ambrosia Greek Street Food stands out as a flavor-packed experience that you won't want to miss!

Reviews For Ambrosia Greek street food York

These gyros are amazing! I have bought the chicken wrap on multiple occasions, and the quality has been consistent. The veggies are all fresh and the meat is juicy. I also ask for some spice. It comes with seasoned fries as well. Compared to other food shops in the Shambles, this place has the best price/food ratio. I highly recommend this place and will continue to be their customer.

Came for the food but stayed for the absolutely slamming meal, boss even tried to warn me that I may be ordering too much but as a classic tourist I didn't understand. Still loved the souvlaki platter. As a personal preference I enjoyed it with a peached tea from Pret but this meal would be an incredible two person date experience. Lovely little bench to sit at but watch out for the birds. They're little rats looking to snatch away this amazing experience.

Delicious food in the market. Good value for money and great choice!! I loved the mixed grill but I thought the lamb gyros had too many chips. I think in the future it’s nicer with fewer chips and slightly more meat

We had the mixed grill and it was delicious! Portions were large enough to feed 2 of us and of reasonable price too! Highly recommend

Very authentic and delicious food, verified by my Greek friend. I got a chicken gyro without chips. The chicken was delicious and well served, juicy and tender. The sauce was very balanced and the portion was good.
