    Never tried any food. Service was excellent as were the cocktails. The espresso martini in particular was spot on. Singer was a Ray Abraham i think and was really good doing unusual but well known songs acoustically.

    Very friendly and welcoming waitresses! And we liked their cheap and tasty cocktails. English breakfast is good and very reasonable for the price. Unfortunately they don't have much fresh fruit or Greek yogurt..

    The taste of dishes was horrible! Both traditional dip with pita and pizzas was like food from shop. Prices suggest that theyre making their own food but after rating those.. Im not sure about that.

    Been a few times now for a breakfast and it is lovely and suck a bargain for a full English €3! Service is really good too. I will definitely be back for my breakfast again.

  • 5/5 Anthony C. 10 months ago on Google
    Brilliant place to have food or drinks. Entertainment is normally promising do many tribute nights everyone seems to enjoy has a friendly atmosphere. Service was extremely good & food was well prepared/top value for money won’t get good quality seafood at this price in most places and drinks came straight away. Right in the heart of many bars/restaurants and Paphos Harbour is walking distance.

    Lovely place. I had the most freshest calamari. A singer came on during a meal and was pretty good. Made the bar come alive. Unfortunately, I didn't stay much longer after our meal.

    A lovely place and friendly service - easy location and good food. In comparison to other places we had in Cyprus the portions were slightly smaller.

  • 3/5 Scott B. 1 year ago on Google
    Ok bar there was some good entertainment on when we were in there. Downside was smoking tables at window side of the bar which meant we got face full of smoke if we want to sit near the open windows.

  • 4/5 Kai S. 7 months ago on Google
    Didn't spend much time in the bar, but we were staying at a hotel that's a part of it. Paid for B&B. Weren't many options for breakfast but it was still pretty decent. The staff were super friendly and nice. Every night there was entertainment involving musicians and although we never really took part, it looked like fun and the singers were always fantastic.

  • 5/5 moira h. 1 year ago on Google

    Always great to go back service food and entertainment top class

  • 2/5 Paulina W. 2 years ago on Google
    The food was not very good and the prices were high for this quality. The Beer Pinta House was ok, but nothing special - it's not craft. The meat was like a jelly and we had hair in our food.

  • 5/5 Neil W. 2 years ago on Google
    Good banter food excellent beer cold good value will be back next year

  • 5/5 svelt s. 2 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Gilez B. 1 year ago on Google
    Humble bar and restaurant hosting Alecos Apartments reception and rooms for holiday accommodation mini complex with small swimming pool. Food is okay, there's entertainment on most nights. It's right near other bars, restaurants and night life, so it won't be somewhere you'd spend all night, but it serves a purpose.

  • 5/5 ant b. 11 months ago on Google
    Had 2 excellent nights here. Elvis tribute one night and a really good Blues Brothers on the 2nd night. Brilliant night out. Thanks George for a fantastic time 😀

  • 5/5 Victoria C. 10 months ago on Google
    Stayed in the hotel so was in this bar everyday. Good food (pizza yum!) and great cocktails. Even better though, the people. George is a great night manager and all the staff are so friendly. Good entertainment when they have a singer on too. Going back this summer

    Small ish bar attached to a hotel from what I could tell. Live music most nights with a family friendly atmosphere.

  • 5/5 John H. 1 year ago on Google
    The chef and waitress are friendly and funny guys. Food was great. Fast service with smile. Will go back.

  • 3/5 Craig T. 1 year ago on Google
    Appears to be a clean well run spot. The only thing I don’t get is why the quality of the house wine ( red) is so bad. Like Ribena cordial. The city makes good wine. You can by it in supermarket. Why do places serve rubbish like this. If Cyprus is one of the homes of wine they do the country a disservice.

  • 5/5 James S. 1 year ago on Google
    Kayla Santosh was incredible, staff and owner on great form, extremely accomodating would certainly recommend for live entertainment!

  • 5/5 Teresa N. 1 year ago on Google
    Saw 3 tribute acts there, they were all brilliant. Staff so friendly, food amazing. Give this place a look you'll have a great night, we met some amazing people as well.

  • 5/5 john s. 1 year ago on Google

  • 4/5 Tracy T. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little place, with some very good singers. This place is well worth a visit very welcoming. Food looked good but we were fed at our hotel so didn't try it.

  • 5/5 Ali M. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Liam S. 5 months ago on Google
    Have just stayed here as the provide apartments to rent. Great staff, great food and very reasonably priced too. The only thing that I didn't like was the amount of noise from the Red Lion pub,a bit excessive at times.

  • 5/5 William S. 8 months ago on Google

    Friendly, lively bar. Great staff and service. (Efthikis x and of course George x) Some good evening entertainment The food is lovely, both breakfast and dinner we're good.

  • 1/5 Theresa H. 1 year ago on Google
    Starting off food was great, first drink great then the staff think your drunk and give you juice, I'm Scottish so we know the difference, entertainment on 05, 09,22 was ridiculous and terrible don't worry we will never return

  • 4/5 Malcolm M. 1 year ago on Google
    Good breakfast at a good price. Personally I didn't like the fried bread. It seemed to me it was old bread or toast used for fried bread.

  • 4/5 Aleksandrs Z. 3 years ago on Google

    Cracking breakfast if your feeling the need for a British fry up.

  • 2/5 HenGerLiD C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Cocktails are delicious, but unfortunately they don’t predict that you can’t pay by card. You get in a pretty awkward position if you don’t have cash. That's exactly what we did 🤔 (Original) Koktélok finomak, de sajnos nem szólnak előre, hogy kártyával nem lehet fizetni. Elég kellemetlen helyzetbe kerül az ember, ha nincs készpénz nála. Mi pont így jártunk 🤔

  • 3/5 Cymon T. 4 years ago on Google
    Went for breakfast, advertises on A-Board outside that it's €2.90. Went in, got menu, no sign of this deal. Asked and was told must order a drink to get it. No problem with that, for 6 of us on breakfast deal with 3 squash, 2 Pepsi & a cuppa tea came to €30.20. Not bad considering. The service however was dire. Young lass with no smile, made me feel awkward for askin anything, stomped around like it was our fault she doesn't get paid well. Never once said you're welcome no matter how many times we wasted our breath saying thank you, (I gave up wasting my breath), didn't come around and ask if everything was OK with our breakfast. Only time she smiled was when she heard that there was more than €30.20 in the receipt cup. If I went in again I'd ask the supervisor/more senior waiter to serve us, she was nice and smiled and was courteous. Only reason why we left a tip is because we're polite, decent and understand that there was more than just 'stroppy face' involved in making/serving our breakfast. Hope they take as feedback and help the waitress that served us learn that a smiling and "you're welcomes" now and then go a long way.

    (Translated by Google) Seafood salad is not bad at all. But the crab sticks are superfluous in it. The prices regarding taste and portion sizes are very high (Original) Салат с морепродуктами весьма не плох. Но крабовые палочки в нем лишние.

👍👍 Simple but very tasty food. Many vegetarian dishes. Efficient service. I was not so much impressed by their coffee but it was ok by local standards. The cafe is located on a busy cobblestone road, so it can be quite noisy. 5 stars anyway. The food makes me want to come here again.
