Stalactites Restaurant

  • Restaurant
  • Takeaway

Stalactites is one of Melbourne’s longest established and best-known Greek restaurants, owned and operated by the Konstandakopoulos family since 1978.

The Melbourne institution serves inviting Greek dishes such as souvlaki, homemade fresh dips, tasty grilled meats and rustic dishes from Greece’s Peloponnese region.

Open daily, Stalactites' casual and bustling atmosphere is ideal for early birds needing a hearty breakfast, families out and about in the city, and late-night owls looking for a bite to eat.
