Konia Tavern
Village meze with live music and legendary pork chops
Konia Tavern
A multi-generational village taverna on the central square of Konia, just outside Paphos, known for giant charcoal-grilled pork chops and a lively meze spread with live bouzouki music.
Sitting on the outskirts of Paphos in the village of Konia, this taverna (also listed as Konia Tavern, Mr. Michalis) is a local institution built around a never-ending meze: dips, cheese, braised mushrooms, and a stream of grilled meats capped by its famously oversized charcoal-grilled pork chops. It has a reputation for being genuinely popular with Cypriots, not just tourists, and gets busy enough that booking ahead is recommended.
It holds a 4.7/5 rating on Tripadvisor (208+ reviews) and is ranked the top restaurant (#1 of 3) in Konia. Reviewers highlight the live music and dancing, generous portions, and low price for the amount of food, with meze typically running in the budget-to-mid-range for what's delivered.
