The Cosy Corner

Tucked into the Kanika Enaerios complex on Makarios Avenue in Limassol, The Cosy Corner is a warm, family-run restaurant serving traditional Romanian, Russian and international comfort food. Guests rave about the generous soups-rich, meaty and, as many put it, tasting like home-alongside dishes such as garlic and spicy chicken, schnitzel, duck on cabbage and the signature Cosy Corner platter. The daily lunch offer (soup, main with salad and bread, plus dessert until 4pm) is a standout for its value, and the papanasi and warm apple pie with ice cream are popular sweet finishes.

The rustic, nicely decorated indoor room and shaded, comfortable outdoor terrace both live up to the name, and diners consistently praise the fast, friendly and polite staff. Prices are affordable and portions are large, making it a relaxed choice for lunch or dinner. Open daily from noon to 11pm, it's a welcoming local favourite that's easy to enjoy on your own, with family or with a group.
