The Paphos region is home to some of Cyprus's most genuine family-run taverns, where meze arrives in generous waves and the welcome feels personal. Our four listed spots span the villages around Paphos, from Polis Chrysochous to Geroskipou, Kissonerga and Peyia.
Expect fresh homemade dishes and charcoal-grilled meze at Parea Taverna near Polis Square, fresh fish meze and Mediterranean sunset views at Tsiakkas Tavern, and endless fixed-price Cypriot meze with great-value wine at 7 St. George's Tavern in Geroskipou. Moustakallis Tavern rounds things out with generous, affordable plates and a real local atmosphere.
All four are mid-priced and consistently well rated, making them a reliable choice for a laid-back Cypriot meal with family or friends.
