Amazing Gyros Vegans - Edit
We ate at Cookoomela a friday night. When we arrived the staff explained us the menu (English version available) what is very nice. The food came quickly and we were able to seat at a table outside. The Gyros were delicious, full of flavours. I definitely recommend the place for vegan people and everyone ... you will not miss the meat in your meal and discover new flavours and textures.

Favourite restaurant in Athens - Edit
All of their pitas taste amazing and are incredibly cheap. I've tried green, yellow, red, pink and rainbow. My personal favourites were pink and green. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures because I couldn't wait to eat these delicious pitas.
Read moreTip: if you feel like dessert after, check out Keenkies which is directly across or Cats & Monsters which is just a minute walk.

Great food for great prices - Edit
The food is amazing and the prices are dirt cheap. The portions are a good size that you could have two gyros per person which is great because their menu has a load of different set gyros.

Hearty Comfort Food. Perfect for Chilly Days. - Edit
I frequented this place often when I stayed in Athens: I enjoyed the simple names of the pita wraps ("Red", "Yellow", etc.) and the crowds that came to this eatery. Although I stood in line often to order food from here, it moved quickly. I personally admired the stamina and knowledge of the staff workers, who likely know their food offerings by heart!
Read moreThe souvlaki and pita wraps were hot and comforting to eat during the chilly March evenings that I remember fondly.

Best Souvlaki EVER! - Edit
While your typical vegan souvlaki in Greece is the same old pita with french fries and whatever veggie they have remaining, Cookoomela offers completely “out of the norm” souvlaki options which are SOOOO TASTY it will make you go back for more and more! Always a pleasure to visit and staff and owner always so friendly and kind😄highly recommend

Amazing and fulfilling meal - Edit
The perfect place for traditional vegan fast food. The gyros is perfect full of veggies and well balanced with the sauce. The kebab with lentils is also delicious. Must try when in Athens

All vegan place serving different versions of mushroom gyros & lentil kebabs in pitas. Sauces are great and the potatoes are melt in your mouth. Also super cheap at around 2.70eur per pita. Owner was very friendly and I even got a taster potato while I was ordering. Highly recommended!

Sehr gut! - Edit
Wir hatten ein Yellow und ein Joghurt Kebab Gyros und eine Kebap-Portion. Köstlich, schnell zubereitet und auch noch sehr günstig (2 Personen satt mit Getränken 13€) Der Chef ungemein freundlich, hat uns zum Schluss noch einen veganen Eissalon empfohlen :)

Try it yourself! - Edit
This place was great! The food was delicious and very inexpensive. The owner/manager on duty was very friendly, and gave recommendations (yellow and red pita). I am a huge mushroom fan, so I was happy. The menu says €2.90, but I got 2 pitas and an order of potato wedges and only paid €8.10. Absolute bargain, very filling, and great atmosphere in an eclectic part of town. Recommend!

major disappointment - Edit
ONE STAR *
Read morehigly overrated. I can not understand the fascination.
poorly prepared mushrooms. mediocre, blunt taste.
tried it once and all four of us were disappointed. i don't believe i would buy again.
on top of that, the guy in charge has serious attitude issues, not professional.
* I wish happy cow hadn't allocated one extra star automatically.
I think my one star is what this place really deserves.

Burnt mushrooms with an extra bitter taste - Edit
Terrible and burned mushrooms rolled up in a tiny almost raw pita bread suffocated in a terrible yellow or brown 🙄 sauce... The lentil kebab was one and worst of a kind. Absolutely ridiculous. And the worst of all is they think they have a good product. Not a good vegan place. Safe your money
Read morePros: No , Pros
Cons: Burned and bitter mushrooms, Owner is unfriendly. , Better keep your money
