May's Diner sits on the E305 in Deryneia, Ammochostos, open for breakfast and lunch from 10:00-14:00 and again for dinner from 17:30, with extended hours Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Reviewers repeatedly describe a cozy, welcoming 'classic diner charm,' calling out an authentic 80s (and 50s-style) atmosphere complete with a nostalgic music playlist and old-school arcade machines like pinball and Pac-Man to play while you wait. The kitchen turns out fresh, generously portioned meals, with guests singling out the burgers, breakfast plates and milkshakes as highlights, and several note that dishes are made from scratch rather than rushed out. Service is consistently praised as warm and friendly, and one diner mentioned a short wait for the chef that only added to the home-cooked feel. With a perfect 5.0 rating across its reviews, May's Diner has quickly become a local favourite for anyone craving a fun, retro dining experience in the Famagusta district.
