A Greek foodie picnic is the ideal way to celebrate summer—full of flavour, sunshine, and simplicity. With our selection of high-quality Greek items delivered straight to your door, assembling an unforgettable picnic has never been easier. Whether you’re in the park, at the beach, or in your backyard, aim to bring a taste of the Mediterranean by packing a basket with vibrant olives, creamy cheeses, crunchy rusks, and a bottle of wine—all available via The Greek Deli shop.
Start the day with crisp rusks or breadsticks, drizzled with Extra Virgin Olive Oil PDO Sitia, Crete, 500ml. Its fresh, fruity flavour adds a bright start to any picnic. Then, pair that with a small pot of Greek Feta Cheese PDO to add creamy, tangy richness. Finally, don’t forget a strong cup of Greek Coffee to wake up your taste buds and set a scenic mood for the rest of the day.
Around mid-morning, take a bite into some Kalamata Olives – Whole 310g for that perfect salty tang. They pair wonderfully with Tzatziki—a creamy dip of Greek yoghurt, cucumber, garlic, and olive oil. For even more variety, add Meze & Antipasti jars for marinated vegetables and savory bites that reflect Greece’s meze culture. These snacks bring a mix of colours and textures that feel both rustic and refined.
When lunchtime arrives, build a mini platter featuring rusks topped with feta, honey, and olives. Drizzle Greek honey over the cheese and olive medley for a sweet-salty twist that surprises the palate. Serve this with crusty bread and a side salad to create a light yet satisfying spread. This combination captures how Greeks transform simple ingredients into memorable meals.
As the sun softens, open a chilled bottle from our white, red, or rosé wine selection. Whether you choose a crisp white to match seafood, a bold red for grilled treats, or a refreshing rosé for versatility, these wines complement your meal and mood. Don’t miss out on sweet treats like halva & tahini, Greek sweets, or chocolate & biscuits—all ideal for pairing with your afternoon drink and capping the day on a delightful note.
Assembling a Greek-style picnic showcases Greece’s culinary simplicity and communal spirit. Better yet, all these ingredients are just a few clicks away in The Greek Deli’s shop, shipped straight to your door. You get authentic textures, flavours, and heritage delivered with care.
