Chalkis

I work in the Sponge Exchange, once a week I HAVE to order the Panini. Omg, it's amazing. It has Capocollo, Prosciutto, Salami, Kasseri Cheese, Sun dried tomato, olive Tapenade, Grilled on Ciabatta! So delicious!! It has a very very very slight bite, and a sweetness to it. Simply delicious!! And the Tsatziki Plate, yummy!!!

What a hidden gem on a budget. We've been to Hellas but this was a different vibe . The gentleman was very friendly and polite. Helped us pick up a few ingredients toMake our own Greek dishes at home. I felt like we were actually in another country. We ordered some Food and Sat outside. Beautiful store and great for a quick fresh bite to eat .

The guy working was affable, respectful, and a fantastic food prep. He made this pita and hummus that puts anywhere else on the strip to shame. Do yourself a favor and stop by Chalkis for some snacks. They have simple, wholesome food bursting with savory and complex flavors.

I'm so happy we saw this place while exploring Tarpon Springs! They had everything I wanted, a bottle of Retsina, my favorite evaporated milk, the Greek Noy Noy brand which tastes sooooo good and I was so happy to buy a couple to bring home, olive oil soap which reminded me of my grandma, and other fun imported treats. So glad we spotted this place walking around, it was like being in Greece shopping at a little neighborhood market.

At the store, you're gonna find a good variety of Greek wines, beers, food like pasta, olives, spices, and more!!The prices are great and this was my first time here since I came to Tarpon Springs. If you decide to come to this place make sure you park in one of the public parking lots there is here on Tarpon Springs.

Such a wonderful experience at Chalkis today. Not only is there a great selection of traditional Greek specialty foods including oils, olives, canned items, and dry goods, but there are also numerous, not to be overlooked, delectable frozen items. The store is very clean and well organized. The gentleman working the counter was super helpful, polite and welcoming. When we asked the shop keeper to recommend a place to eat, he offered to make us a sandwich. Apparently they are starting to make fresh sandwiches now. He mentioned Mortadella or a Gyro or... We took him up on his offer of a couple Gyros. So glad we did. It was without a doubt the best Gyro we ever had. We sat outside at a small bistro table and savored every single bite. Wow. What a gem. Highly recommended.

Hole in the wall - try the alexandrian sandwich. Definitely worth going to this place and amazing customer service.

Gyro was excellent, and at a reasonable price. Also enjoyed the baklava. Friendly staff. Also has subs available, but I enjoyed the authentic gyro.

we were meandering through Tarpon springs and took a turn unto Athens avenue - away from the maddening crowd. We entered Chalkis thinking it was just another tiny grocery store! We were presently surprised by the selection. But the most lovely thing about the store was the family that owned it. It was a family affair and the children were absolutely delightful. They could explain what everything was used for and made suggestions for me to purchase for my grandchildren. I also purchased 2 bars of pure olive oil soap that I was very happy with. Then we discovered they also had a small menu of sandwiches. We got a gyro and a mortadella where were delicious and half the price of anything we saw elsewhere. Highly recommend.
