"Tyraki" is a top destination for sandwich lovers who crave flavor and quality in every bite. Here, you’ll find countless options to craft the best sandwich of your life, with freshly baked breads available in nine varieties: sandwich loaf, sesame round, wheat, whole-wheat baguette, classic baguette, cornbread, ciabatta, sesame soft bread, and brioche.
Its reputation extends well beyond the neighborhood, thanks to its famous homemade mayonnaise. Made with passion and top-quality ingredients, this mayo adds the perfect touch to any sandwich, making it absolutely irresistible. Every sandwich is toasted to perfection—no frying, no unnecessary calories—and exclusively uses olive oil for a healthy yet delicious choice.
At "Tyraki," the sandwich possibilities are truly endless. Choose from a selection of ready-made options, from simple to gourmet creations like salmon and brie, or design your own sandwich with an array of ingredients. You’ll also find a variety of tasty spreads and salads such as gardener’s salad, eggplant spread, Russian salad, and cheddar sauce.
