Discover the Soul of Cyprus Through Local Food
Nestled in the peaceful hills of Kritou Terra, our tavern isn’t just a place to eat — it’s a place to connect. With the scent of oregano in the air and the sound of village chatter, we invite you to slow down and enjoy a truly authentic Cypriot experience.
In this blog, we’ll take you behind the scenes of what makes our little tavern special — from the way we source ingredients, to traditional recipes passed down through generations.
Fresh From the Land: Our Local Ingredients
Every meal at our tavern starts with the land around us. We work closely with local farmers, growers, and producers right here in Cyprus to ensure that everything on your plate is fresh, seasonal, and full of flavour.
By sourcing locally, we not only support our neighbours but also reduce our footprint and honour the environment. It’s the old Cypriot way: simple, honest food that brings people together.
The Dishes That Keep You Coming Back
Our menu is rooted in tradition, prepared with love, and served with pride. Each dish is inspired by recipes passed down through generations, refined by our head chef Christos.
- Beef Osso Bucco – Slow-braised beef shank in tomato and herb sauce.
- Sheftalia – Handmade Cypriot sausages grilled to perfection.
- Halloumi with Honey & Thyme – Salty, sweet, and unforgettable.
- Moussaka – Layered aubergine, meat, and béchamel sauce.
- Village Salad – Fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and feta.
Each plate carries the soul of Cyprus, served in generous portions just like we do at home.
Where Time Slows Down: The Village Setting
Our tavern offers more than just food — it offers a feeling. Surrounded by rolling hills and stone houses, it’s a place where time slows down and conversations linger.
Enjoy lunch in the shade of olive trees or dinner under the soft glow of lanterns — every visit becomes a moment to remember.
More Than a Meal: Why Guests Return
People often say it’s the food that brings them in — but it’s the feeling that keeps them coming back. Every guest is treated like family, greeted with a warm smile and a relaxed, homey vibe.
Chef Christos often steps out to greet guests and recommend dishes. There’s a personal touch in everything we do.
