The place

Stamna Tavern

A family-run taverna housed in one of Ayia Napa's original stone buildings, known locally as one of the most authentic Cypriot meze experiences left in town.

Stamna Tavern operates out of what is often described as the oldest house in Ayia Napa, serving traditional Cypriot dishes since 1982 when it was founded by Andreas Killis. It is a family-run spot that leans into full meze spreads, moussaka, lamb and homestyle Cypriot cooking rather than a tourist-menu approach.

On Tripadvisor it holds roughly a 4.7 out of 5 rating and ranks among the top 30 restaurants in Ayia Napa out of well over 200 listed (currently listed around #25 of 222). Reviewers consistently single out the meze as the best in the area and describe the service as warm and family-like rather than rushed.
