Set in a beautifully restored, government-listed stone house in the heart of Sotira village, Ploumin is a family-run traditional Cypriot taverna offering an authentic meze experience just a short drive from Protaras and Ayia Napa. Owner Kostas and his family are known for their warm, personal welcome, even asking guests the pace they'd like their dishes served. The kitchen turns out generous portions of freshly cooked, home-style Cypriot cooking, with the sheftalia singled out by diners as among the best on the island and some dishes made using home-grown produce.

The atmospheric interior, traditional décor and live Greek music create a relaxed, characterful evening setting. Open for dinner Tuesday to Sunday from 6pm, with indoor and outdoor seating that suits couples, families and larger groups alike. Regulars praise the great value and genuine hospitality, making it a rewarding find for anyone seeking real traditional Cypriot flavours away from the busy resort strips. Reservations are worth considering on busy evenings.
