Date Night At Aphrodite Greek Restaurant Cramlington

Edit * Aphrodite Greek is no longer open and is now an Indian restaurant with new owners*


Aphrodite Greek restaurant is located at the Brockwell Centre in Cramlington which is where I grew up.  We had a rare child-free evening and decided to visit for a meal without the kids.

Aphrodite serves Greek Cypriot food with a few Italian dishes too, making it a great place to dine for Mediterranean food. As we visited on a Thursday night they had a special 2 for 1 menu on, as well as the main menu. We decided to order off the 2 for 1 menu which was 3 courses from a set menu for £22 and was two meals for the price of one, making it amazing value. 

There was a choice of six starters, seven mains, and three desserts on the menu with a few vegetarian options available. For starters, I ordered the Halloumi and the other half went for the Doner Kebab.

The starters arrived quickly and they were generous sized portions, my halloumi was grilled and served on warmed pitta bread and with a dressed side salad. 

The other half donner kebab was a big portion it was a warmed pita bread bursting with thick slices of warm kebab meat, served with a dressed side salad and a pot of tzatziki dip. Both starters were delicious.

For mains we both ordered the chicken souvlaki which was two marinated, grilled chicken kebab skewers served on a dressed side salad, pot of tzatziki dip, sliced pitta bread. This came served with either chips, potatoes or salad, we both went for the chips.

 Again this dish was delicious and I would definitely order this dish again the next time we visit.

I was so full I almost skipped dessert but I decided to order the raspberry Eaton mess and I am glad I did as it was perfect for a warm summer night.

The other half ordered the profiteroles which were stuffed with cream and topped with chocolate sauce. 





The total bill for our meal came to £28 for three courses for two from the buy one get one free offer, two pints of coke and one coffee. I thought this was amazing value for the quality of the food and service. If you are looking for somewhere new to try out and you live near Cramlington then I really do recommend you visit Aphrodite Greek Restaurant at the Brockwell Centre.
