Delicious food & charming location

Enjoyed a late lunch on Sunday afternoon. O’Vrakas Tavern menu offers a vegan section. I ordered the dish of the day. We also ordered the spinach pie & mushroom pie. All three dishes were simply delicious! The staff are friendly and attentive. Lovely atmosphere and such a charming location. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Cyprus.

Pros: Great food, Vegan menu section & clearly marked allergens , Cute charming location & cute local cats

Cons: None

Excellent place for vegans!

We have been to o Vrakas now several times over different holidays and Harris, Monika and his team are excellent. Although not vegan and they do serve meat unfortunately, the vegan options are home made, traditional and delicious... Just like your greek granny would have made... We cannot recommend highly enough.

Pros: Excellent vegan options

Authentic but vegan

We went here on a whim because we saw the happy cow sticker out in the front. The staff was really friendly and knowledgeable about vegan food and also the wine selection.

The food itself was amazing, full of authentic flavors and seasonal ingredients.

Pros: Large vegan selection, Nice atmosphere, Friendly and knowledgeable staff

Message from Vrakas Taverna

Reflecting on our guests demands, comments, advice, requests and eating habits, we established for 5th year now a special section in our menu, focusing entirely on Vegan dishes. We even proceeded and organized 2 food and wine matching dinners based on Vegan cuisine. We strongly believe that Vegan cuisine has a huge potential not only reflecting on peoples health but also the richness and new spectrum can add to the Gastronomical world. We are very enthusiastic to see the support that this section receives even from people that are not even Vegetarian and our goal is to continue and strengthen the quantity and quality of dishes provided.

Great all round

One vegan, one veggie and one fussy eater can be tricky but these guys couldn’t do enough to help. Really friendly and determined to look after us. The chick pea curry was delicious.

Pros: Staff, Home made food

Cons: Veggie burger was not home made and mostly potato

Vegan mezze at Bouzouki Night!

Good choice of options on the dedicated vegan menu. Very friendly service and they even made vegan mezze especially for us on Bouzouki Night (Wednesdays). We would have given it 5 stars if we could!

delicious vegan menu, wonderful atmosphere

We went on Sunday and squeezed in for live bouzuki music and a full vegan menu. Amazing to find such an extensive and clearly labelled vegan menu at such a dreamy traditional Cypriot taverna!

Owner really tries

Even though there is no vegan menu yet (coming this spring), owner finds ways to surprise you with a veganized option. I am visiting this restaurant now for two years, and I believe me and my friends helped him grow into vegan scene. The result is outstanding. This restaurant is a go to place on Cyprus & in spring it will be even better.
Food is very good and staff is extremely friendly (staff also understands the word vegan - and that means a lot to me & they know that cheese, butter and that most stock cubes contain milk or even meat - and all of that is not vegan).

Pros: Friendly staff, Excellent food, They understand the word vegan

Cons: Sometimes it can smell of meat or fish

Excellent vegan food and brilliant restaurant staff

I've been to O'vrakas on a few occasions and each time they were able to create a vegan dish without prior notice, really understanding the requirements of a vegan diet.

I went between Christmas and new year giving prior notice, the owner had arranged a delicious tomato soup for starter, an avocado pasta dish for main and a vegan cheesecake made from tofu for dessert! The veggies and meat eaters tried it and all loved it!

O'vrakas is closed during the off season but the owner advised that he will be returning in March with a vegan (and gluten free) menu due to its popularity.

As far as I know this will be the only restaurant in the area with a dedicated vegan menu.

In addition to the great food the staff are friendly and helpful and really understand veganism.

Pros: Friendly staff , Excellent food, Great location

Cons: Closed during off season
