Salford is set to welcome a new Mediterranean cafe and wine bar this autumn with the opening of Kallos.

The beautiful new spot is taking shape in Cortland at Colliers Yard, a stylish new residential development near Manchester Victoria.

Kallos will be specialising in all-day, high-quality Greek and Mediterranean food, whether you’re after a relaxed brunch or an evening drink.

Founded by hospitality professionals Ionna Antoniou and Ivan Milchev, the restaurant will be decorated to feel like you’re sitting on a street-side restaurant in Mykonos.

White walls, stone floors, accents of blue, natural wood and vintage elements will do a good job of bringing Santorini to Salford.

Kallos’ brunch menu will be split into sections, featuring traditional pastries like Spanakopita and Tiropita, dishes served on sourdough, and those on freshly in-house made pita bread. 

As night falls there’ll be meze selections, from classic Greek dips to charcuterie boards to traditional dishes like feta in filo, Saganaki, and Keftedes.

It’ll all be about simple small dishes using great products, served alongside wines from Greece and the Mediterranean basin.

Ioanna and Ivan collectively boast 20 years of experience in the industry, with Ivan having spent three years as a head sommelier.

Ivan said: “The name Kallos was inspired by the ancient Greek word for beauty, which perfectly encapsulates the essence of this café and wine bar for us.

“It’s not just about the aesthetics but also the experiences shared and the hospitality offered, which we see as a real priority.

“The beauty (Kallos) is about shared laughter, the stories exchanged and the connections made.”

Ioanna said: “Kallos Café & Wine Bar has been a dream of ours for a long time coming and we’re so excited to turn it into a reality this autumn.

“We wanted to create a venue focused on hospitality, a relaxed atmosphere, an all-day offering and a menu serving the authentic Greek and Mediterranean food.

“All-day cafes are incredibly popular in Greece, and we want to create that ambience in Manchester. We hope you like it as much as we do!”
