A new Greek restaurant has opened in the Norwich Lanes.

Big Gyros serves authentic dishes from the Mediterranean and can be found in Upper St Giles Street.

It is the latest Greek restaurant to open in the city this year, joining Cloud Coffee Bar in Grapes Hill and Greek Actually in Unthank Road.

Social media posts hint that the restaurant will be bringing plate smashing to the city, a Greek tradition in which people throw plates to the floor during celebrations and festivals.

City folk can also enjoy the cuisine from their own homes as the restaurant has launched on Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat.

The newly refurbished space can be hired for private events with up to 45 guests.

Big Gyros is open between 11am and 11pm daily for dining in or takeaways.
