Petradaki Tavern: A Taste of Cypriot Warmth and Tradition
Nestled among the vineyard-covered hills of Kathikas, just a short drive from Paphos, Petradaki Tavern is a celebration of authentic Cypriot cuisine and heartfelt family hospitality. Founded over two decades ago by Pambos (Charalambos) Polemitis and now run with his wife Niki and their sons, the tavern welcomes guests into a charming, rustic stone building with a cozy terrace overlooking the valley. The interior strikes a perfect balance between tradition and comfort, making it ideal for both relaxed family meals and intimate evenings.
The menu is a tribute to Cyprus’s culinary heritage, offering beloved dishes like meze platters, lamb kleftiko, lamb tavas, moussaka, hearty stews, and perfectly grilled meats. Many ingredients are sourced directly from the family’s own farm — from fresh eggs and organic vegetables to wine crafted at their small private winery. Signature plates like lamb tavas and moussaka are consistently praised, with house-made dips and honey-drenched loukoumades adding the perfect finish to any meal. Sunday buffets, known for generous portions and variety, are especially popular.
Guests regularly commend the tavern not only for its delicious food, but also for the warm, attentive service and breathtaking views. The team is known for its genuine care, whether accommodating dietary needs or offering thoughtful surprises. With its family-friendly atmosphere and authentic character, Petradaki Tavern remains a favorite among locals and visitors alike — a place where the soul of Cyprus is served with every dish.
Saint Cyprus warmly recommends Petradaki Tavern to all lovers of true local cuisine.
