Tucked away in Geroskipou village near Paphos, The Platia is a warm, family-run taverna where a mother-and-daughter team cook authentic Cypriot food the traditional way. Guests rave about the Kleftiko, chargrilled pork and sheftalia kebabs, tender lamb and pork chops, and dolmades enriched with a signature meat broth. A fresh Greek salad shows off the family's own golden olive oil, perfect for dipping warm homemade pita bread.

Save room for house extras like apple pie or a sugar-free rose corn-flour treat, and don't miss the home-squeezed pomegranate juice alongside a glass of local wine. Portions are generous and the value is exceptional, with visitors noting a full meal for two for under €30. Beyond everyday dining, the family are gracious hosts for celebrations and receptions, going above and beyond to make guests feel special.

With genuinely friendly, personal service and a heartfelt village atmosphere, this is a hidden gem that rewards those who seek out real, home-style Cypriot cooking away from the tourist crowds.
