Paradosiako (Egkomi)

Παραδοσιακό (Paradosiako) is a traditional-style cafe and bakery in Engomi, Nicosia, welcoming guests from early morning until late in the evening. Open from 07:00 on weekdays and a little later at weekends, it's an easy stop for a morning coffee, a quick snack or a sweet treat any time of day. The counter offers a wide range of products to choose from, including sandwiches, pastries such as bougatsa, and homemade desserts.

Its cheesecake is a repeat favourite among regulars, with generous, affordable slices—and the kitchen has even prepared whole cakes to order for special occasions. Sharing the same space is Davinci gelato, praised by visitors for its ice cream, with flavours like vanilla negra and rose earning particular affection. With friendly staff on good days, fair prices and a broad selection of casual bites and sweets, Paradosiako suits a relaxed coffee break or a grab-and-go dessert in the heart of Engomi. Note that some guests have flagged inconsistent service, so experiences can vary.
