Limelight Grill House Taverna, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 0
This spacious family run restaurant has been a popular favourite for over 3 decades and naturally it gets packed.  The decor of stone arches, plants, palm trees and courtyards adds to the relaxed ambiance, whilst the proprietor 'Paul' will make you feel like one of the family, many customers are still going back for more after thirty years!

I love this place, the sounds of gears and links chinking, smothered by fair ground music, the smell of candy floss and bbq corn on the cob, the multi coloured lights and occasional girly screams. It's really cool idea coz you just buy a Wrist Band depending on your ages and what you want to do!

Ed’s Note October 2026

Tony Dynamou - 0
It’s October already, that went quick!  and it really is one of my favourite months!  Partly because that long hot summer is definitely over, or is it? … I asked the fishermen and they said it might not rain again ‘til mid-November, with temperatures still up in the 30°C’s, as we enter October, that’s about 90°F in English.  Just as we predicted back in May, it looks like we’re going to have another Indian summer and we’ll still be going to the beach in December, Mmm, don’t you just love Cyprus!
