About SKARA Greek Street Food

Steps from the Semaphore shoreline, this lively Greek counter turns out smoky charcoal yiros tucked into warm pita with crisp chips and thick garlic tzatziki. Regulars grab sidewalk tables—kept cozy with heaters when coastal breezes kick up—for open meat platters and cold Fix Hellas beer. Right next door, an adjoining dessert bar fries hot cinnamon doughnuts to order alongside honeyed baklava and galaktoboureko.

  • Charcoal-Grilled Yiros: Spit-roasted meats packed into soft pita with hot chips, house tzatziki, and fresh dill salad.
  • Seaside Alfresco Dining: Heated footpath seating just a short stroll from the Semaphore jetty and beach.
  • Dedicated Greek Dessert Bar: An adjoining sweets counter serving made-to-order cinnamon doughnuts and traditional galaktoboureko.

Why Choose SKARA Greek Street Food

Why locals and beachgoers choose SKARA for authentic Greek street food and sweets by the coast.

  • Authentic Charcoal-Grilled Yiros

    Tender, lean meats grilled over charcoal are paired with soft pita bread and house-made sauces.

    The best yiros i've had, full of charcoal flavour and their bread is so soft and tasty

  • Beachside Coastal Setting

    Located steps from the Semaphore shoreline and jetty, perfect for grabbing a bite before or after heading to the water.

    The location is hard to beat too with a shaded eating area or a very short stroll to Semaphore jetty and beach

  • Alfresco Sidewalk Dining

    Heated outdoor footpath seating allows guests to dine comfortably alfresco while watching the coastal street scene.

    Great outdoor dining area perfect for people watching.

  • Freshly Made Hot Doughnuts

    An integrated dessert counter offers freshly fried cinnamon doughnuts made to order with crispy exteriors and fluffy centers.

    Then noticed that they had a dessert bar next door, then ordered a Baklava a 3 cinnamon donuts. It did take a while for the donuts, but then you know that they were freshly made for you! Crunchy on the outside and fluffy in the middle

  • Handcrafted Greek Pastries

    Traditional sweet selections, including homemade baklava and galaktoboureko, provide an authentic finish to any savory meal.

    I'm a big fan of traditional Greek desserts and yaya's homemade desserts from here, do not disappoint. Galaktoboureko and Baklava on point!

  • Yiros

    Love their yiros! The best yiros i've had, full of charcoal flavour and their bread is so soft and tasty, the chips is still crisp inside the yiros!

  • AB Packs

    We had the AB packs and they were very enjoyable. On street parking available, short walk to the beach.

  • Open Plate

    Ordered the open plate - didn’t take long for the food to be ready, was great.

  • Meat Platter for Two

    The meat platter for two while expensive at first look is worth EVERY. SINGLE. PENNY. Nothing was too oily or without flavour. Every element complimented the next.

  • Baklava

    then ordered a Baklava a 3 cinnamon donuts. It did take a while for the donuts, but then you know that they were freshly made for you! Crunchy on the outside and fluffy in the middle - just the way I like them!

  • Cinnamon Donuts

    Hot cinnamon and jam doughnuts, milkshakes, and traditional Greek desserts are a huge bonus. Always fresh, worth the wait.

  • Galaktoboureko

    Galaktoboureko and Baklava on point! Plus some tasty ice creams and sorbets.

Before you head over

Practical tips for ordering, beachside dining, and timing your dessert visit.

  • Allow Extra Time for Fresh Doughnuts

    If you want hot cinnamon or jam doughnuts from the adjoining dessert bar, order them early; they are freshly cooked to order and take longer than the quick savory plates.

  • Outdoor Seating and Seaside Picnics

    Grab a shaded sidewalk table under the outdoor heaters during cooler or wet weather, or take your yiros for a very short walk down Semaphore Road to the beach and jetty.

  • Clarify Sides and Sauces Up Front

    SKARA specializes in traditional Greek street food; open plates and fish come paired with authentic Greek sauces like tzatziki rather than standard fish-and-chip shop condiments like tartare.
