$6 gyros will soon be available in Frederick County as Big Greek Cafe is heading north with the recent announcement of a new Urbana location in Village Square at Urbana– joining the likes of Chipotle, Jersey Mike’s, Tropical Smoothie Cafe, and Domino’s at the new retail development (3290 Bennett Creek Ave).
This will be the 6th location for the local restaurant, and the first outside of Montgomery County. Big Greek Cafe opened its first location in Downtown Silver Spring in 2009 and has quickly grown to become a local favorite across the county. There are currently additional locations in Bethesda, Hillandale, Kensington, and Rockville, along with Big Greek Cafe on Wheels– a food truck that debuted in 2020.
We are told the hope is to open the Urbana location in June, but delays with supplies and kitchen equipment could push the opening date back later into the summer.
