What a gem! I honestly can’t believe I haven’t heard more people talking about Capers. It’s been sitting on my list for ages—so long that I couldn’t even remember why I saved it. But after finally visiting, I left full, happy, and very impressed.nnI’ve unintentionally been on a Greek restaurant streak lately, and Capers has absolutely earned its place among the best. There are so many things I loved about this spot, starting with the interiors. It’s like stepping into your yiayia and papou’s house—every corner is filled with nostalgic charm. From the retro cabinets near the bar to the eclectic knick-knacks, the space feels like a beautifully curated homage to old-school Greek homes. It’s clear that every detail—from the cutlery to the furniture—has been thoughtfully chosen to reflect the concept, even if it looks like someone just raided their grandparents’ house in the best way possible.nnThe mood lighting and casual vibe make it the kind of place where you could rock up in Ugg boots and no one would bat an eye. The staff were super laid-back, in a good way—attentive without being overbearing. You order and pay at the bar, which worked perfectly for a relaxed night out. No waiting around for the bill, just eat, chill, and head home when you’re ready.nnThe menu is small but mighty—which I loved because everything sounded amazing. If it were any bigger, I’d be overwhelmed. We ordered the Toursi pickled veg, Dolmathes, Patates, Spanakorizo, and the Giovesti with mushroom and tomato a special that night. Every dish was hearty, flavourful, and packed with the kind of warmth that brings back memories of my grandparents’ cooking.nnLittle places like Capers are exactly what I love discovering—humble, delicious, and full of soul. I’ll definitely be back.
We had the most delicious meal here last night which has kept me thinking about it all morning. Each dish was so tasty and full of flavour, topped off with some lovely drinks. Thank you so much Capers team, I can’t wait to return!
Hard to recommend a specifc dish as every dish was delicious!nLots on offer for vegetarians. In fact the 2 meat dishes we ordered, while still delicious, were upstaged by the vegetarian dishes.nThe potatoes were great, my favourite dish was probably the grilled Feta. We also ordered ice cream for dessert. The honey biscuit cheesecake ice cream was my favourite but the baklava ice cream was also delicious.nI would recommend this place to anyone. It really was great!
Capers, Thornbury - 4.7 out of 5.nnI am obsessed with this Greek restaurant and bar in Thornbury!!! Delicious food, traditional decor and music, a beautiful outdoor beer garden. There was even random videos, such as of people dancing, projected on a wall. So random but so fun. What’s not to love.nnPictured is the:nDolmathes $13nPastitsio baked pasta, $23nSpanakorizo slow cooked spinach and rice with tomato, $19nStifado beef with a hearty sauce, feta, and house made bread, $30nnAll the food was delicious with rich flavours. If I was to be super picky I’d say that the bread waa a little more firm than usual, but that really is looking for faults. I loved every meal, with the dolmathes and spanakorizo being my standouts.nnAbsolutely can’t wait to come back here!!nnOverall 4.7 out of 5.
i have been wanting to come here for a long time and i was not disappointed! The courtyard and furnishing all reminiscent of every immigrant child's upbringing - loads of nostalgia! The greek food was excellent - the pastitso had loads of flavour, the beef tender, the pickles could of been more acidic but the olives were a stand out! Juicy, plump, magnificent! The highlight for me was the greek salad Martini - I would of had 10 of those if not for the intrusion of a social event. This is the only critique Capers gets. Poor planning and monitoring on the venues behalf. The social aspect could of been pushed to post 10pm when most patrons would of finished dining. Instead we had way too many un-self aware patrons with their butts in our food. Management was apologetic, but again, this could of been easily prevented by not allowing so many patrons into the courtyard until diners were finished. I will still go again, just not on a night they advertise a social event.
