Where to have brunch in Nicosia

Nicosia's brunch scene clusters in the centre, around Stasikratous Street, Makarios Avenue and the quieter streets behind them, with a few places in the old town inside the Venetian walls. Weekend mornings are busy with families and friends meeting up, so book or arrive before 11:00. For the neighbourhoods, see our Nicosia old town area guide.

Henry's: brunch towers to share

Henry's, at 30 Makarios Avenue, is an elegant but lively room that suits a group. The draw is the brunch tower, built for sharing, plus a Cypriot kagianas and brunch cocktails such as mimosas and espresso drinks. Book ahead for weekend late mornings, when it fills fast.

The Silver Pot: a small café with options for every diet

The Silver Pot, on Themistokli Dervi Street, is a small corner café known for pancakes, French toast, a quiche of the day and free-range omelettes. It is one of the easiest brunch tables in town if you are vegan or avoid gluten, as both are covered on the menu. Space is tight, so arrive early or go on a weekday.

Istorja: brunch on a patio

Istorja, on Grigori Xenopoulou Street, is a concept store and café with a raised patio, pavement tables and a side courtyard, which makes it a good choice from spring to autumn. Come for eggs Royale, homemade granola or a classic croissant.

DOT: healthy plates in the old town

DOT, on Athinas Street near Famagusta Gate, is the old-town option, with a strong line in healthier plates such as poached eggs and avocado on multigrain or quinoa bread. It pairs well with a walk along the walls or around the Famagusta Gate area afterwards. Parking is easier on the streets just outside the walls.

Deliyard: a big brunch in Strovolos

Deliyard, at 17 Esperidon Street in Strovolos, is a deli-style place with generous portions: think Angus steak Benedict, croque madame, French toast and chocolate pancakes. In 2026 it opened from 07:00 to 23:00 on weekdays and from 08:00 to 17:00 at weekends, so it works for an early start. Sandwiches cost about €4–€15 and bowls about €7–€12 (2026). Book on 22 525017. For the area, see our Strovolos guide.

Where to have brunch in Limassol

Limassol's brunch is about the water: the Old Port, the Marina next to it and the seafront hotels. Weekends are the main event, and the seafront fills from late morning. Our Limassol Marina area guide covers the area.

La Petite Maison: the dressy weekend brunch

La Petite Maison (LPM), at the Parklane resort on the seafront, serves its weekend brunch on Saturday, Sunday and public holidays from 12:00 to 14:30. The menu has a French Riviera feel: pastries with butter and jam, avocado toast with grilled vegetables, sea bass carpaccio, snails in garlic butter, then lobster Benedict, grilled sea bream or steak and eggs, and pain perdu or a berry waffle to finish. It is a celebration brunch, so dress smartly and expect hotel prices rather than café ones. Book on 25 862222.

Jamie Oliver Kitchen: brunch every day at the Marina

Jamie Oliver Kitchen at Limassol Marina serves brunch every day from 09:30, which makes it handy on a weekday off. The menu includes shakshuka with Cypriot koulouri, a full breakfast with halloumi and local sausage, smashed avocado toast and a granola bowl. It has a children's menu, and the Marina's flat quays are easy with a buggy. Book online through Eat App or on 25 057575.

Bar du Soleil: all day at the Old Port

Bar du Soleil, at the Old Port, is an all-day bar that opens in the morning for coffee, smoothies and brunch and stays open past midnight for cocktails. It is a good spot for a relaxed late brunch by the water that can roll into the afternoon. Call 70 007808 to book a table at the weekend.

Where to have brunch in Larnaca

Larnaca's brunch places are open all year and start early, which suits residents rather than holidaymakers. The old town and the streets behind the Finikoudes promenade have the most choice; see our Larnaca city centre and Finikoudes guide.

Lavita: all-day breakfast with a car park

Lavita, at 5 Nikiforou Foka Street, is tucked down a backstreet in the old town and opens daily from 09:00 to midnight. Breakfast runs all day: a classic breakfast cost about €10.50 and the eggs bagel about €13 with bacon (2026), and pastries such as the almond croissant are baked in house. It is the best pick here for vegans, with a vegan breakfast on the menu, and it has its own car park, which is rare in the old town. Call 24 400121.

Museum All Day Bar: an early start in the centre

Museum All Day Bar, at 13 Kiklis Street, opens from 08:30 on weekdays and from 09:00 at weekends; it closes at 17:30 on Sunday. Brunch plates include eggs Royale (about €11.50) and an avocado toast with marinated mushrooms and a poached egg (about €10.50), plus sandwiches made with local ingredients. In the evening it turns into a cocktail bar. Call 77 770161.

Memories at The Rise: brunch on a rooftop

Memories, the rooftop at The Rise hotel on Kimonos Street, serves brunch from 11:00 to 15:00 every day except Tuesday. Portions are generous, with an English breakfast, eggs Benedict, waffles and pancakes, most at about €11 (2026), and a view over the town to the sea. Book on 96 022000 or through the hotel's website.

Worth the drive: Novél in Lefkara

Novél, the restaurant of The Agora Hotel in the hill village of Lefkara, inland from Larnaca, serves breakfast daily from 08:00 to 10:30, then lunch and dinner. Expect avocado toast (about €12), eggs Benedict (about €13) and ricotta pancakes (about €14) (2026). Make a morning of it with a walk through the village and its lace and silver shops; our Lefkara area guide has more. Book on 24 726000, as breakfast ends early.

Practical tips for brunch in Cyprus

When to go

Weekend brunch peaks between 11:00 and 13:00. If you want a quiet table, go before 10:30 or after 13:30, or choose a weekday. Many cafés stop serving brunch dishes in the early afternoon, so check the cut-off time if you are a late riser.

Booking

Book for Saturday and Sunday, especially for groups of four or more and for hotel brunches. Smaller cafés often take bookings by phone or Instagram message rather than online.

Vegan, vegetarian and allergies

Vegetarians will find plenty, from halloumi and eggs to pancakes. Vegans have fewer dedicated dishes: Lavita and The Silver Pot are the easiest, and elsewhere avocado toast without egg or a granola bowl with plant milk usually works. Tell the café about allergies when you order.

Children and dogs

Brunch is a family affair in Cyprus. Jamie Oliver Kitchen has a children's menu, and the Marina and the Old Port are easy places to walk off breakfast. If you bring a dog, ask for a terrace table; see our guide to pet-friendly cafés and restaurants.

Coffee

Brunch usually comes with a freddo espresso or cappuccino, the iced coffees Cyprus drinks almost all year. If you are new to the local styles, read coffee in Cyprus, from Cypriot coffee to freddo.

Brunch at home

Many Cyprus cafés deliver through the main apps; see food delivery in Cyprus.
