Long-running Old Town tavern serving full Cypriot meze, rated the top tavern in Limassol on TripAdvisor.
Meze Taverna stands at Agiou Andreou 209, on the main shopping and dining street of Limassol's Old Town, a short taxi ride or walk from the medieval castle. The kitchen works through the standard Cypriot repertoire: meat meze and fish meze, kleftiko (lamb baked slowly in a sealed oven), moussaka and souvlakia, plus vegetarian plates for those who skip meat. The meze is the order most visitors make, with dips, salads, grilled halloumi, sausages and several meat dishes arriving in rounds at a shared table. Opening times are listed as Monday to Saturday from midday with food orders taken until about 21:45, and the venue is closed on Sundays, though sources vary, so a call to +357 25 367 333 or a look at the website is wise. A separate WhatsApp contact, +357 97 943532, is shown on the site. Prices are mid-range for Limassol, at about EUR 25-35 (roughly USD 29-40) per person for a meze with drinks, which makes it a sound introduction to island cooking for a solo traveller willing to share a table.
