Nicosia Nightlife
Nicosia nightlife is constantly changing and improving!
New restaurants and bars are opening regularly and, generally, there is a chilled atmosphere. It’s also lovely to see people of all ages mingling.
In our experience, it’s rare to see extremely drunk people stumbling around the streets late at night.

As you can see from our video, a wide range of restaurants and bars are located throughout the city centre. Our video only scratches the surface!
Regarding bars, some play current hits mainly from the UK and America, while others play current or traditional Cypriot and Greek music.
Although people tend to go out late (around 9 pm for dinner), Nicosia is not a 24-hour city and even at the weekend, most restaurants will close between 10.30 pm and 11.30 pm.
Closing time for pubs and bars varies, but on average, this is between 12.30 and 2 am (with some exceptions).
