Taste Nicosia

Nicosia, recently recognised as Cyprus’ Culinary Capital and awarded “Best Beverage Experience Destination 2024,” offers a gastronomic journey shaped by centuries of culinary tradition. Rooted in ancient food and wine practices, the city’s vibrant cuisine fuses heritage and innovation, ranging from meze tavernas and artisanal bakeries to cocktail bars and international eateries. Nicosia actively promotes food sustainability and tourism through EU projects, highlighting its commitment to responsible gastronomy. During the EU Regions Week tasting session, we'll showcase traditional flavours and local products to promote our cultural identity and culinary excellence at European level.
