Travel to the Mediterranean with LEGO’s Latest Gift with Purchase – Restaurants of the World: Greece (40908)
LEGO continues its culinary journey around the globe with the latest addition to its popular Restaurants of the World promotional series. LEGO Restaurants of the World: Greece (40908) brings the charm of a traditional Greek taverna to brick form and is set to become one of the most sought-after Gift with Purchase (GWP) sets of 2026.
The 254-piece set captures the unmistakable beauty of the Greek islands with its crisp white walls, vibrant blue accents and colourful flowers adorning the upper terrace. Inspired by the picturesque tavernas found throughout the Mediterranean, the model is packed with charming details despite its compact footprint.
One of the first things you’ll notice is the large brick-built fish mounted above the entrance, acting as a fun and eye-catching restaurant sign. The open-front design allows builders to admire the cosy dining area inside, complete with food accessories, outdoor seating and decorative elements that evoke the relaxed atmosphere of a seaside Greek restaurant. A restaurant owner minifigure and an adorable LEGO cat complete the scene, adding plenty of personality to the build.
The promotional set is expected to be available from 11 August to 21 August 2026, while stocks last, with a qualifying purchase threshold similar to previous Restaurants of the World promotions. As with most LEGO Gift with Purchase sets, collectors are advised to act quickly, as these exclusive models often disappear long before the promotion officially ends.
Exploring LEGO’s Restaurants of the World Series
The Restaurants of the World series is one of LEGO’s newest collections of Gift with Purchase sets, celebrating iconic cuisines and architectural styles from different countries. Each model is built at minifigure scale, making them perfect additions to LEGO city layouts while also serving as charming standalone display pieces.
The series began earlier in 2026 with 40906 Restaurants of the World: Japan, featuring a traditional sushi restaurant topped with a giant brick-built piece of sushi and a sushi chef minifigure. This was followed by 40907 Restaurants of the World: Mexico, a vibrant taqueria complete with colourful decorations, a giant taco sign and authentic street-food styling.
With the arrival of 40908 Greece, LEGO continues the theme by showcasing another country’s unique food culture and architecture. Each restaurant has its own distinctive oversized food sign, colourful façade and exclusive minifigure, making the collection feel cohesive while giving every set its own personality.
The Restaurants of the World collection follows in the footsteps of previous promotional series such as Houses of the World, demonstrating LEGO’s growing interest in producing collectible quarterly Gift with Purchase sets that appeal to adult builders and collectors alike. These smaller models often feature exceptional building techniques, unique printed elements and display value that rival many retail sets.
A Must-Have for Collectors
Although relatively small, 40908 Restaurants of the World: Greece perfectly captures the warmth and charm of a Mediterranean taverna. Its beautiful colour palette, intricate architectural details and exclusive promotional status make it one of the standout LEGO GWPs of the year.
Whether you’re collecting the entire Restaurants of the World series, looking for a unique addition to your LEGO city, or simply love beautifully designed miniature buildings, this delightful Greek taverna is well worth adding to your collection before it sails away with the end of the promotion.
