Somateio Apeleftherosi (Lakatamia)

Σωματείο Απελευθέρωση is a community-club taverna in the Lakatamia suburb of Nicosia, run under the banner of a local association and known for a classic Cypriot meze-and-grill menu. Reviewers single out the kleftiko as a standout, served in generous portions alongside well-cooked potatoes, and the souvlaki is repeatedly praised even by an otherwise critical visitor. Regulars describe the food as excellent and the setting as a fun, sociable place for a night out with friends over good food and drinks, with music adding to the mood. Opinions on value are mixed: most reviewers find the prices fair for the quality and quantity on offer, though one visitor felt portions were too small for the cost on a slower night. Open evenings on weekdays, from morning on Saturday, and afternoon into evening on Sunday, it suits groups looking for a traditional, unpretentious Cypriot dining experience in Lakatamia.
