Daphne in Greek mythology was the daughter of the river god, Peneius, who spurned the advances of the lustful Apollo who tried to ravish her.

Now her name adorns the popular Greek Cypriot restaurant started in November 1984 and continues to be run by the Lymbouri family.

  It is a smart, comfortable and cozy restaurant with a relaxing Mediterranean atmosphere, welcoming and friendly with its walls full of photographs depicting life from late 19th Century, in Cyprus.

In addition to a lengthy menu, featuring charcoal grills and fresh fish, Daphne has a number of speciality dishes to choose from every day.

Fully licensed, Daphne has a respectable reasonably price wine list, spanning Greece, Cyprus, France and the New World.
