Ttappis Tavern is a beloved family-run Cypriot taverna in the heart of Paralimni, serving authentic home-style cooking every evening from 6pm. Diners come for the abundant meze: warm freshly baked bread with dips, grilled halloumi, sheftalia, local sausage, souvlaki and slow-cooked kleftiko, all brought out in a generous, keep-coming spread that guarantees you won't leave hungry. Reviewers repeatedly praise the freshly cooked food and prompt, attentive service, singling out the sheftalia and kleftiko as standouts.

Set in a traditional tavern space with a warm, welcoming atmosphere, it's a natural fit for family gatherings and groups looking for a genuine local experience away from the tourist strips. Prices are considered good value for the quality and portion sizes. Because it is popular and busy, especially at weekends, booking ahead is strongly advised.

Some guests note the many dishes can arrive all at once and service pace at the end of the meal varies, but the consensus is that the food and hospitality make Ttappis a Paralimni must-visit for classic Cypriot flavours.
