This is traditional Cypriot eating: charcoal, clay ovens, village wine and plates meant for sharing. Come hungry — meze here is a marathon, not a sprint.Where it is & when to goPithari Tavern is in Kato Paphos. Paphos splits in two: Ktima, the upper market town, and Kato Paphos below — the harbour, castle and UNESCO archaeological park, with the hotel strip and old-town lanes in between. Cypriots eat late; go from about 8pm for the full atmosphere, and book ahead on summer weekends — good tavernas fill with local families, which is exactly the sign you want.Good to know

If meze is on the table, pace yourself — the grilled meats land last.

Ask what’s from the charcoal today rather than sticking to the menu.

House wine by the carafe is usually local and usually good value.
