Christos&Pepa Tavern is a traditional Cypriot tavern set on one of Lefkara's charming narrow streets, in the heart of this lace-making village in the Larnaca district. The tavern sources its meat and poultry from its own local supplier, keeping dishes fresh. Reviewers highlight the lamb chops served with fries and a fresh local salad, souvlaki in pita, halloumi, and a hearty lamb-and-rice stew, alongside standout wine leaves (dolmades) and lamb liver.

Visitors have been treated to complimentary baklava and a hot drink after their meal. With a rating of 4.0 from 75 Google reviews, opinions on service and cleanliness vary: many guests praise the warm, authentic atmosphere and spotless dining room, while a handful of visitors have reported inconsistent service and hygiene on quieter occasions. Located within walking distance of Lefkara's lace shops and jewelry stores, it makes a convenient stop for those exploring the village. Call ahead at +357 99 712040 to confirm hours before visiting.
