Coffee Greeks isn’t your average coffee stop. It’s a lively blend of Greek tradition, Texas hospitality, and a dash of Main Street style, all brewing inside Silver Creek Collections at 1020 Main Street in Bastrop. If you’re looking for a place that serves up more than just caffeine, this is your next must-visit.
Meet the Team: Theo and Rebecca Syrpis
At the heart of Coffee Greeks are Theo and Rebecca Syrpis, a husband-and-wife duo with a knack for mixing business with pleasure. Rebecca brings a sharp eye for fashion—think clothes, handbags, hats, and jewelry that actually make you want to browse. Theo, on the other hand, is the coffee mastermind. His engineering background might not scream “barista,” but it turns out, it’s the secret ingredient to his perfectly balanced, bold-yet-smooth cup of coffee.
Theo’s love for coffee isn’t just about the brew—it’s about the experience. He remembers sitting in Greek coffee bars, watching people enjoy their drinks and pastries, chatting and relaxing. That’s the spirit he’s poured into Coffee Greeks, right here in Bastrop.
A Sip of Greece on Main Street
Coffee Greeks is more than a name—it’s a promise. The menu is a celebration of Greek and American flavors, with a focus on quality and authenticity. You’ll find:
- Rich espressos and cold brews made from locally sourced beans
- Chai and matcha lattes for those who want something a little different
- Greek pastries like baklava, bougatsa, and galaktoboureko, all gluten-free and made with care
- American classics for those who want a familiar treat with their coffee
And the menu isn’t standing still. Plans are brewing (pun intended) to add Greek favorites like moussaka and spanakopita, giving you even more reasons to linger.
Not Just Coffee: A Full Experience
Coffee Greeks sits at the back of Silver Creek Collections, a boutique that’s as much about style as it is about substance. While you’re sipping, you can browse through Rebecca’s curated selection of clothes, jewelry, art, and gifts. The shop also features the work of local artists and artisans, including:
- Sherri Deleon’s hand-lathed wooden bowls and vases
- Carol Lyons’ stunning photography
- Nelda Martinez’s handcrafted pillows and tea towels
There’s a long dinner table in the shop, inviting you to sit, chat, and connect. It’s the kind of place where strangers become friends over a shared love of good coffee and conversation.
A Community Hub, Not Just a Coffee Shop
What sets Coffee Greeks apart is its community vibe. Theo and Rebecca treat every customer like a guest. Whether you’re a regular or just passing through, you’ll get a smile, a chat, and maybe a story about Greece or Bastrop’s own history. The energy here comes from the team’s passion for what they do, and from the feedback and positivity of their customers.
The shop’s location in downtown Bastrop adds to its charm. Bastrop itself is a town that balances old-school Texas warmth with a growing scene of arts, food, and local businesses. Coffee Greeks fits right in, offering a taste of something different while staying true to the community spirit.
What’s New and What’s Next
Coffee Greeks recently moved from its original kiosk in the R.A. Green Mercantile to its new home inside Silver Creek Collections. The move means more space, more seating, and more menu options. Rebecca’s vision for the shop is growing, with plans to keep expanding both the food and drink offerings and the boutique’s selection.
The shop is also part of a wave of new energy in Bastrop, with other local favorites expanding and new businesses opening their doors. But Coffee Greeks stands out for its unique blend of Greek flavor, Texas hospitality, and Main Street style.
