The Story Behind the tashas Brand
Founded in 2005 by Natasha Sideris, tashas was born out of a passion for food, design, and the joy of shared experiences. What started as a single café in Johannesburg has grown into an international brand with 22 locations across South Africa, the UAE, and London.
Rooted in Natasha’s Greek heritage and her early memories of cooking with family, tashas has always been about more than just food – it’s about connection, generosity, and joy. That philosophy is baked into everything, from the warm greetings to the quality of every plate that leaves the kitchen.
As Natasha puts it, “The heart of our business is to serve great food, take good care of people, and make sure they always come back for more.”
