In the heart of Protaras, Knight’s Pub Restaurant has been welcoming guests since 1988, turning a family passion into one of the area’s established dining destinations. What began as a business run by four brothers has grown into a proud family tradition, now carried forward by the second generation.
More than three decades later, the philosophy remains much the same: good food, friendly service and an atmosphere that makes guests feel at home. Whether stopping by for a casual lunch, meeting friends for drinks or settling in for a long evening, visitors are welcomed as part of the family.
The restaurant’s reputation has also been recognised through the Cyprus Eating Awards. Knight’s received the distinction of being voted No. 1 Best Grill Bar/Pub in 2022, while its gastropub was named Best Grill Bar/Pub at the 2025 awards. These accolades reflect the team's continued commitment to quality, consistency and hospitality.
A menu built around the grill
At the centre of the Knight’s experience is a menu that gives the grill plenty of attention. Juicy burgers lead the way, alongside creative dishes, beer-friendly starters and generous fish and seafood platters. The kitchen regularly introduces fresh additions, keeping the menu interesting for returning guests.
Among the dishes worth seeking out is the sea bass served with orange and thyme sauce, a combination that brings a fresh citrus touch to the flavours of the sea.
Freshness is also central to the restaurant’s approach to cooking. Chef Xenis champions organic cooking, with fresh herbs and selected produce sourced from the restaurant’s own organic garden. Knight’s has also received a Green Sustainability Award, recognising its commitment to more responsible ingredient sourcing and the use of home-grown produce.
Good food, cold beer and cocktails
A good gastropub experience calls for something equally enjoyable in the glass. Knight’s offers an extensive selection of bottled beers, more than ten draught options and a large wine selection. Those looking for something different can choose from its cocktail menu, featuring carefully prepared drinks suited to a relaxed evening out.
The atmosphere is completed by a soundtrack of classic hits from the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, while sports enthusiasts can catch all the live action on the restaurant’s HD screens.
It is a combination that gives Knight’s its lively, welcoming character, making it as suitable for a casual drink with friends as it is for a full evening of food and entertainment.
A little something for the end
And there is one final piece of advice for anyone planning a visit: leave some room for dessert. Homemade sweets and gelato provide a tempting way to round off the meal.
Open daily from 10.30am until 2am, Knight’s serves food until 11pm, making it a convenient choice throughout the day and into the evening.
From its beginnings as a family-run pub to its recognition among Cyprus's award-winning grill bars and gastropubs, Knight’s has remained true to the idea that good food and genuine hospitality belong together.
Reservations are essential.
