Welcome to Zorba

Where Greek tradition meets hospitality.

At Zorba, we bring the flavours of Greece to Derby through traditional recipes, generous dishes and food made to be shared.

Our chefs bring the flavours of Greece to Derby through traditional recipes, quality ingredients and dishes made to be enjoyed together. From freshly grilled souvlaki and slow-cooked Kleftiko to Moussaka, Meze and classic Greek dips, our menu is full of the food we know and love.

“And just as important as the food is filoxenia — the Greek tradition of welcoming guests like friends.”

Come in, take a seat and let us bring a little Greece to Derby.
