Nixos Greek Street Food is a casual Greek dining spot with two Edinburgh locations, including a sit-in restaurant on Brougham Street in Edinburgh. This Tollcross site sits close to the King’s Theatre and the Meadows, making it a convenient stop for locals, students and visitors exploring this lively part of the city.
The restaurant specialises in authentic Greek and Cypriot street food, with a menu built around fresh ingredients, handmade pita and traditional recipes. Signature dishes include gyros wraps, chicken or pork souvlaki, halloumi wraps, loukaniko sausage, and grilled veggie wraps, all served in soft handmade pita with tomato, red onion, tzatziki and fries. Larger plates such as gyros mains, souvlaki mains, and street-food salads offer heartier options.
A wide selection of cold and hot meze allows diners to build a sharing-style meal. Popular choices include tzatziki, hummus, melitzanosalata, tirokafteri, dolmades, Greek fries, halloumi fries, and grilled halloumi. The Mixed Grazing Board, featuring dips, pita and Kalamata olives, is a standout option for groups.

Portions are generous and designed to reflect the hearty, unfussy style of Greek street eating, with an emphasis on freshness and bold, simple flavours. Vegan and vegetarian dishes are available across the menu, reflecting the restaurant’s inclusive approach. Nixos is known for its fresh, healthy flavours and its commitment to traditional preparation, including handmade breads and marinades.
