The Nativity of Christ Greek Orthodox Church in Novato is bringing the flavors of Greece to the community with its “Gyro Fest-to-Go.” Taking place May 2–3, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., the festival offers a convenient pre-order and pickup format, making it easy to enjoy a delicious meal on the go. Guests can look forward to generously filled gyros made with seasoned meat wrapped in warm pita and topped with creamy tzatziki, fresh tomatoes, and onions. The menu also features crispy Greek fries—often sprinkled with herbs and feta—as well as a tempting selection of traditional pastries like baklava and other sweet treats.
For added convenience, the event offers a drive-through pickup option for those who prefer to stay in their cars, as well as limited patio seating for guests who want to relax and enjoy their meals on-site. While the format is streamlined, it still captures the spirit of a classic Greek festival—bringing people together over great food while supporting the church and its community programs. Whether you’re a longtime fan or trying it for the first time, Gyro Fest-to-Go is a flavorful and accessible way to experience a beloved local tradition.
