Lefkosia (South Nicosia)

Entertainment in Lefkosia (South Nicosia)

  1. K-Cineplex

    The best cinema experience to hit Lefkosia, 2.5km out of the city in Strovolos. Sporting multiple screens, K-Cineplex runs all the latest-release movies and provides movie-goers with ample parking, a cafeteria and hi-tech sight-and-sound systems.

    Plato's

    Hidden inside an old house, this place feels like a jazz joint or a bistro that wouldn't be out of place in Montmartre. Beer from all over the world is served, but only to those who are respectably dressed: no shorts or T-shirts allowed (miniskirts are OK, though).

    Hammam

    This heavenly old colonial house, with a grand arched door and beautifully tiled floors, is perfect for sitting under the stars and sipping a cocktail beneath the aromatic fig tree. The music is good and the atmosphere relaxed.

    Erotiko

    Although it's by Famagusta Gate, this place feels and looks like a beach bar. There's loud house music, the garden is surrounded by bamboo fences, and the crowd is young and jolly (although not wearing bikinis).

    A great place for the gap-year crowd and backpackers who want to chat to their mates, smoke lots of nargileh (the really in thing to do), and play backgammon 'til late.
