About Mavs Greek Restaurant

Tucked along Little Malop Street, Mavs delivers generous Greek feasts centered on chargrilled meats, fresh seafood, and warm hospitality. Laneway regulars head in for generous meze spreads—tender grilled octopus, house dips with warm pita, and slow-cooked kleftiko that pulls easily off the bone. Service moves swiftly, making dinner an easy stroll before curtain call at Geelong Arts Centre, while the lunch counter turns out a dedicated three-course special. Expect honey-drizzled loukoumades and strong Greek coffee to finish.

  • Three-Course Lunch Special: A multi-course weekday lunch menu offering three courses for under $30.
  • Pre-Theatre Timing: Attentive table pacing ensures diners comfortably make showtimes at the nearby Geelong Arts Centre.
  • Dedicated Mocktail Menu: Curated zero-proof cocktails alongside local wines and traditional Greek coffee.

    Situated an easy walk from Geelong Arts Centre, the restaurant expedites course timing so guests make theater curtain times without stress.

  • Personal, Hands-On Host Hospitality

    Hands-on owners and welcoming staff personally check in with guests and explain dishes, creating a warm, familial atmosphere.

    The owner was kind enough to have a chat with us even though we were out-of-towners, which we truly appreciated.

  • Dedicated Zero-Proof and Mocktail Program

    Guests seeking alcohol-free dining experiences receive thoughtfully crafted zero-proof options rather than standard soft drinks.

    I was also pleasantly surprised to see a dedicated mocktail menu. As someone who does not always drink alcohol, it was nice to have several non-alcoholic options rather than the usual soft drink selection.
