The Olive Grove in Bury

My wife and I came with our 4 month old daughter and we had an amazing time. The food was excellent. As a half Greek, it was really authentic, but with a twist. We found the mixed mezza to be super tasty and creative, the crispy feta and honey was a revelation. The mixed grill, which i have attached a picture of, had a wonderful variety and everything on that platter was delicious in it's own way. The coffee at the end was as good as I can remember in the best places in Greece.The service was super friendly, attentive and accommodating, and was a highlight for us 3.Unfortunately I was only visiting Cambridge, but if I lived there I would certainly go to the Olive Grove every week.Μπράβο

Overall a lovely restaurant with good ambience and great food. It loses a star for two reasons, one, the toilets could do with some work, the rest of the restaurant is so nice in comparison. Secondly, on the night we came the man seemingly in charge was very rude to his staff and berated them in front of a full room of customers. The servers we had were absolutely excellent to us- 5* service, but the one man in the black shirt publicly putting them down really killed the mood. It made everyone feel uncomfortable and I felt so sorry for the hardworking staff being shouted at.

My family and I went out for dinner yesterday and it was a very disappointing first experience at this restaurant. Firstly started with the waiters taking us upstairs where a lot of the tables hadn't been prepared so he gave us one that was right in the corner. We waiting for a good few minutes waiting for the waiter to come back with menus or to offer us drinks. He then came back upstairs to seat a larger table (6) and immediately gave them menus and asked if they wanted anything to drink and as soon as he took their drink order he disappeared. A few minutes after we received our menus. Although we ordered a few dips and pitta bread before the larger table they still managed to get their full starters before us while we had waited at least half an hour. It was very chaotic and things that shouldn't take long took a comically long time. There was an loud engagement party that turned up later on and I did feel sorry for the waiter and gave him the benefit of the doubt as although the service was bad he was alone on the floor looking after a table for at least 20+ people, as well as the other tables on the floor (When we left 2.5 later and went downstairs it was a massive difference it atmosphere, very quiet and at least 4 staff members, they definitely could have used more upstairs).The food was delicious, when it eventually came (the waiter did let us know that the food from the grill takes around 35 mins but it was a lot longer than that). It was just let down by the extremely slow service, which could have easily been sorted with more people on the floor. And the noise, which I also know is hard for a restaurant to control but if we had been informed that there was an engagement party arriving later then we would have asked to sit downstairs.I've ordered from the Olive Grove before and there have never been any issues so it was quite a disappointing evening as a whole, I would have thought that on a Wednesday it wouldn't be so hectic but I was mistaken.

Delicious food, really attentive service and lovely atmosphere! In the picture was the prawn saganaki and the feta with lots of bread to dip in our huge bowl of tzatziki. So much food and really generous portions. Highly recommend!

Delicious Greek food in a lovely and classy environment, with brilliant service.

Fantastic meal. Brilliant staff.great value.We were a party of 6 and had 5 different dishes. We all really enjoyed them. The staff were really knowledgeable and willing to offer an opinion. They looked after us really well and I still left a tip even though there was a service charge added.I would not hesitate to return if I was in Cambridge again.

Walked in with family for dinner end of short holiday to Cambridge. Pretty busy but found us a table. Very friendly service and superb Greek fare. Sons verdict is best meal in Cambridge. Nuff said!

A lovely place. Sadly it lacked a little ambience, we booked a table for two and were seated in the middle of a well lit room with not much music ... It felt kind of awkward ... but that said. The food was AMAZING . The portions were large and the food was well cooked and really very tasty. I would still recommend.. maybe go as a larger group and have party 😊

An authentic Greek food experience.Clean, contemporary surroundings with a relaxed atmosphere.The tasting experience demonstrated Head chef Joseph Zanaty's passionate flair for his food, clever mixing of flavours which excite the pallette in every mouthful.Highly recommended and will be returning.

The venue is well decorated and staff friendly, but sadly the food just lacked flavour and it felt a little like style over substance.Food looked really good and it wasn't bad as such, just lacked any substantial flavour which meant most dishes felt a little underwhelming.In addition nearly half of the vegetarian options were 'sold out' which meant as veggies we had to limit ourselves to what was left on the menu. This was disappointing considering we were looking forward to trying some of their more exciting options.Could have just been a bad day in the restaurant but sadly didn't live up to what we had hoped based on other reviews.
