Grab a quick bite at Volvi Souvlaki, a local-feeling souvlaki spot just off the Monastiraki crowds. Order a skewer pita with spicy sauce and eat it on the go between sights.
Full description
Volvi Souvlaki is a no-frills fast-food counter just a short walk from the crowded Monastiraki food streets, popular for its low prices and quick turnaround. Reviewers mention that two souvlaki and a drink come in at around 6 euros, and recommend the four-piece souvlaki pita with spicy sauce; they also appreciate that fries aren't stuffed inside the pita.
Portions are reasonable for the price rather than large, and a few recent visitors found consistency slipping, so it's best treated as a cheap, fast bite rather than a destination meal. A typical stop lasts about 20 minutes.

Reviews
Tried the 4-piece souvlaki pita with spicy sauce and it was really good. Lots of flavor, quality meat, and I appreciated that they don’t put fries inside the sandwich. The only downside is that it’s on the smaller side—if you’re even moderately hungry, I’d recommend ordering two. Great option for a snack or light…
