Meraki is a buzzing Greek haven in Fitzrovia where vibrant Mediterranean flavors meet a chill, upscale vibe, perfect for long, indulgent dinners and crafted cocktails.
"Outside of running for the bus when we’re a savage, sweaty hour behind schedule, shopping is our favourite form of cardio. Joe Wicks eat your bloody heart out, because these PE legends took the stairs in the Nike store. After tiring yourself—and your savings account—out, it’s time for a proper meal at Meraki. This Greek restaurant on Great Titchfield Street is a bit flash and a lot of fun. The atmosphere here is always 10/10 and importantly, so is the wine and the feta-packed courgette pasta. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Rianne Shlebak
"Meraki is a big, bright Greek restaurant run by the people behind Zuma and Coya, but you wouldn’t know it. Things here are pretty relaxed. It’s a spot where you could eat with either your somewhat stress-inducing mother in law, your cool east London mates, or messy baby brother, without fuss. The food is great overall, get the chops, any of the mezze options, and make sure you try at least one of their pasta dishes." - Team Infatuation
"Get yourself to Meraki’s terrace on Great Titchfield Street, close your eyes, take a bite of their Mykonian salad, and boom. Suddenly you’re sitting in a bay overlooking the Aegean Sea contemplating whether you should have another glass of wine. Please note: you absolutely should. The salads at this feel-good Greek restaurant are all about simple perfection in the form of high-quality ingredients, layers of olives, and the juiciest Santorini cherry tomatoes. There’s even a crispy filo spinach pie salad if you’re feeling particularly ravenous." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Daisy Meager, Sinead Cranna, Jake Oliver
"The fun thing about Meraki is that if you do actually commit to fleeing the country you can hit up its spots in Riyadh or Mykonos. But you know what people say—Fitzrovia is the Mykonos of central London. Maybe. Kind of. OK, no one says that but this upmarket Greek restaurant will bring the sunshine via the medium of light crispy squid, an oh-so-rich hummus, and a signature courgette tzatziki that proves that Eau de Garlic will forever be the ultimate holiday scent. Be warned, the cocktails usually fall around the £18 mark but they’re essential if you’re in the mood for a paloma or are just trying to convince your mate that Soho is totally the Mykonos of London. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Rianne Shlebak
"If you’ve given this friendship the same level of love and care you offer that poor cactus in your bathroom, then Meraki is the perfect place to create an aura of ‘Hi, sorry, I miss you’. We’re talking smile-inducing tzatziki, the crispiest of great crispy squids, and some of London’s all-time must-order lamb chops. A relaxed, feelgood restaurant in Fitzrovia, it’s the kind of place where a spicy paloma and some tuna tartare can easily turn into a four-course meal and a bottle of white from Santorini. Basically, it’s the perfect place, and menu, for someone you want to spend a good few hours with." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Rianne Shlebak, Jake Oliver, Daisy Meager
