The Olive Tree Restaurant
After a long wait, we have some amazing news! On the 1st Friday of each month our famous Taverna Night's are back! Enjoy LIVE Entertainment by the talented Mario Constantinou & Theodora Georgouli in an environment Greece herself would be proud of!

Our recipes are handed down from our Yiayia, our dear grandmother who loved cooking for the family and the dishes we serve you today have evolved from the traditional Greek creations we ate as we were growing up in Kalamata and Thessaly.Our menu is built around small sharing platters or "mezethes" style dining, and for us it is all about coming together with friends and family and enjoying a relaxed authentic Greek dining experience.

Best service we’ve had in a restaurant for a long time. Great recommendations and the menu is fantastic. We had heard how good the espresso martinis are from a friend, we were not disappointed. We will be going back soon.

The food was incredible with a wide range of choice. The staff were amazing. The restaurant didn't cram everyone in together. And it had a relaxed atmosphere. We will most definately return!

Always a warm welcome here that is matched by the super tasty, filling Greek dishes. We attended on a night with some lovely live traditional Greek music. All very relaxing. It's rare both ourselves and our two children are unanimous in food choice. We all agree that this is one of our favourites!

Delightful taverna in Berko. Staff were attentive a.d the food was delicious and freshly prepared. The staff also are knowledgeable about the food and will answer questions. Worth the ambiance and experience. We had 5 small dishes: roasted aubergine, octopus (hot), brocolli and dill balls, Greek salad, spanokopita. Baklava and cheesecake dessert with 2 coffees. 2 small glasses of wine and a bottle of sparkling water. £74 not inc. service

This place has improved dramatically since it was first opened several years ago. The atmosphere and food is so authentic that I forget I’m in Berkhamsred and for a moment I feel like being in a taverna in… Greece, my home country. All mezedes are delicious and excellent quality. Service is perfect. Well done guys and thank you for the fantastic live music events on your taverna nights. This a the best Greek restaurant in the UK

We surprised my sister by taking her here when she came to stay. He husband went fishing on her birthday and she had stayed in Greece as a nanny many years ago. We all absolutely loved it. Very authentic, very attentive, the food was amazing. No photos because we were too busy chatting and enjoying our food!

I received great service from when I was greeted at the door right up until I left. I was served by a gent who had an infectious passion for the food that was being served on the menu, so gave good advice when it came to the menu choices.
The food I ordered was cooked to perfection and had great flavours, deserts and mocktails weren't too bad either. Definitely worth a visit! And a revisit!

What a lovely find! Cousy atmosphere, Wonderful greek mezze-style food. We had 6 different dishes for our lunch and not a single one disappointed! Spanakopita, octopus, souvlaki - all were freshly cooked and very tasty. Nice dessert menu and a great coffee too. Highly recommend.

I’ve just been here for my mum’s birthday. First time, and I couldn’t fault a thing. The owner is lovely and so welcoming as you arrive. The staff are so attentive and friendly. They were really accommodating… due to our train being delayed, and managed to move our reservation time so we didn’t miss it! The food is spectacular and the only reason we didn’t have more was purely because we were so stuffed. For an authentic Greek meal this place is second to none. Cannot wait to go back. Opa!! PS, thank you for making such a fuss of my mum. She absolutely loved

The most delicious meal I've had for a really long time. Booked this last minute slightly on a whim because not our usual cuisine. The chicken souvlakia was absolutely unreal. The chicken was thick, incredibly moist and the flavour was absolutely delicious. We had a mese mix of smaller plates, about 5 or 6 and that was perfect for 2 people. The pita breads were warm and the dips were so tasty. We also had chicken wings which had so much flavour and crispy just in the right places. The pudding was a malt chocolate slice and again, delicious. This was slightly on the pricier side, but for me, absolutely

I had the best night, I’m a vegan and there was so much choice. The food was delicious, the ambiance was great, the staff were polite. All the food was perfect. I’ve never left a review before but I felt I had to, this is my new favourite place to go. Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
