Limassol and its surrounding villages are a stronghold of traditional Cypriot cooking, from generous meze feasts to charcoal grills done the old way. This collection brings together 19 tavernas across the area, including several family-run spots in Germasogeia and Mouttagiaka, plus mountain and village kitchens in Agros, Platres and Pano Platres.
Expect meat and fish meze at places like MEZE Taverna and Nama, hearty grills at Ταβέρνα Αλέτρι and Monastiraki Athens, and fresh fish at Afxentis near the Old Port. For a set meze in a leafy courtyard, Forsos Tavern is a local favourite — just note it's cash only and booking is essential. Many of these tavernas fill up quickly, so reserving ahead is a good idea.
Whether you're after a casual souvlaki wrap near Dasoudi Beach or a long, slow dinner in a restored mansion garden, you'll find honest Cypriot flavours and warm hospitality here.
