KOUKLIA
Kouklia is a traditional Cypriot village
situated 3km to the west of Aphrodite Hills.
It plays host to a number of good eateries,
archaeological site, supermarket, taxi rank,
museum, golf shop, jewelery shop and
more. The village square closes off to traffic
in the summer in order to host a combined
village Cyprus night every Thursday from
June. Highly recommended. Turn right out
of the resort, stay on the B6 and it’s 2km up
on the right hand side.
Gabriel’s - Kouklia Village
- €€ - Tel: 26 432 527
Situated in the centre of the village on the
left past the church. Family run taverna
serving good honest, delicious food.
Cypriot hospitality at its best; starting
with a warm welcome, you will leave
feeling like a part of Gabriel’s family.
Cyprus Night every Thursday with tasty
buffet meal, live music and traditional
dancing during peak season - a must-visit
for holiday makers. Live music nights are
also hosted throughout the year, check
Facebook for event information. Highly
recommended!
Take the opportunity to try a Cypriot
drink to accompany your meal...we
love the local cocktail, brandy sour,
and a Filfar liqueur always washes a
big meal down nicely.
