Features

The Kinras Tavern is fairly unique having had a menu that catered for all and done it well it has chosen to go 'back to its roots' and present a menu that is steeped in tradition and uncomprimising in its authenticity. The menu, created from the cook books of the past, offers such delicacies as sun dried lamb, kalamari, machalebi (a pudding based on rose water syrup) or more familiar but equally authentic dishes such as t-bone steak or mousaka. Experience the ambience and relaxing qualities of the outdoor enclosed courtyard which is open to the public, for a morning coffee or taste some exquisite Cypriot traditional cuisine at lunch or throughout the day. The Kiniras has achieved the coveted CTO (Cyprus Tourism Organisation) Vakhis award. This is awarded sparingly to establishments that serve traditional Cypriot cuisine in an environment that is authentic, and where the levels of service as well as the ambience and decor compliment the food ~ in short the full dining experience.
