About Kellari Greek Restaurant
Kellari Greek Restaurant is a Nottingham option to consider when you want a casual meal rather than a more formal dining plan. The venue's published hours show evening opening from Wednesday to Sunday, with earlier opening from 12 PM on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is closed on Monday and Tuesday.
A better fit for relaxed groups than high-ceremony dining
The positioning is practical rather than elaborate: the dress code is casual, and the opening pattern gives diners several end-of-week options. That makes Kellari Greek Restaurant a sensible name to keep on a shortlist for an informal Nottingham meal, especially when the group does not need a high-ceremony setting.
For a more destination-led dinner, the calculation may be different. Harts, alchemilla and Restaurant Sat Bains are natural comparison points if you are weighing up a broader plan. Kellari Greek Restaurant is the more direct option when the priority is a casual setting and opening times that fit the date.
Who should book, and who should cross-shop
Book this for a casual Nottingham meal, particularly from Wednesday to Sunday when the venue is listed as open. The hours are 5–10 PM on Wednesday and Thursday, and 12–10 PM on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Cross-shop if the occasion depends on a specific format, price point, menu style, awards recognition, drinks focus or dietary provision. In that case, compare alchemilla, Restaurant Sat Bains, La Rock Restaurant and Harts before deciding. For a broader scan of the city, use our full Nottingham restaurants guide.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Kellari reads like a neighbourhood Greek anchored in Beeston rather than a city-centre destination. The piece frames the restaurant against Nottingham’s fine-dining conversation and positions Kellari in the mid-range, where provenance and straightforward cooking matter more than culinary spectacle. That combination gives the place a charming, relaxed temperament: solid, consistent cooking driven by quality olive oil, fresh fish and well-sourced lamb rather than flashy technique. The tone is understated and hospitable, aimed at regulars who value reliable, honest Greek food in a friendly local setting.
Best For
Kellari is best suited to local diners looking for a dependable, mid-range Greek meal rather than a destination tasting experience. It works well for weeknight dinners, casual outings with friends and family meals where consistency and value are priorities. The restaurant’s Beeston location and neighbourhood focus mean it attracts regulars from nearby rather than one-off visitors, so it’s a sensible pick for relaxed date nights close to home, family dinners and informal special-occasion meals that prize good ingredients and straightforward cooking.
Ordering Tips
Lean into the signatures: gyros, moussaka and a selection of meze are the clearest places to start. Given the review’s emphasis on provenance-driven cooking, ask staff about the sourcing of key ingredients—olive oil, fish and lamb—when choosing dishes. Share a few meze plates to sample the variety of flavours, and order a classic moussaka or a gyros for a reliable, representative main. The restaurant’s strength is consistent, ingredient-led cooking, so prioritise dishes that showcase those elements.

Where to Go If You Can't Get In
Try Harts for a more traditional Nottingham special-occasion dinner, especially if the table wants a polished central option.
Choose alchemilla if the group is ready to spend more for a Modern European, Modern British meal with a more structured fine-dining feel.
Restaurant context
How It Compares
Kellari Greek Restaurant is the low-friction choice in this Nottingham set: easier for a relaxed group meal, less formal in feel, and better suited to diners who want a sociable Greek dinner rather than a chef-led tasting format. Restaurant Sat Bains and alchemilla are the splurge options, both positioned at ££££ and better for diners who want a more ambitious Modern British or Modern European experience.
Harts is the safer cross-shop for a classic Nottingham special occasion, while La Rock Restaurant and Mollis are worth comparing if the group wants something more occasion-led than a neighbourhood Greek meal. Kellari is the pick when atmosphere and group ease matter more than ceremony.
