Podji Poda is a small, unpretentious taverna on Makariou III Avenue in Kakopetria, drawing locals and visitors for traditional Cypriot flavors and generous portions. Many diners choose the meze for two, a steady flow of classic plates to share, while others pick hearty specialties such as pork bacon cooked in wine, a thick-cut pork neck chop, halloumi and house dips. The cooking is fresh, satisfying and very good value for money, making it a popular stop when exploring the village.
Seating is limited, with around 5–6 tables inside and a few more outside, so arriving early can help at busy times. Podji Poda operates mainly in the evenings (Mon, Wed, Thu 18:00–22:00; Fri 12:00–15:00 & 18:00–22:00; Sat–Sun 12:00–16:00 & 18:00–22:00). Budget-friendly pricing and big portions make it easy to order a spread and linger with friends. For enquiries or to check hours, call +357 99 102810.
