Living North Cyprus - Information about north Cyprus

Hamur Restaurant & Bar is located in the heart of Lefkosa and has a warm and homely atmosphere where you can relax while dining.

Hamur offer a Take-Away service as well as the option of dining outside on the terrace or inside in one of the 3 large high ceiling rooms with an open fire to keep you warm and comfortable.

The cuisine reflects its name and offers a delightful menu of traditional Cypriot pastry dishes including the popular choice 'MANTI' (ravioli).

Hamur has an ongoing successful reputation since 1995 when it was first established by a couple; whom are aware of the importance of the survival of such traditions not only to its people but also to the culture as a whole, which is where the story began.

The skill of cooking pastry was something that was passed on through generations and this was no different for Ahmet and Hulya (owners of Hamur). It had always been the mother or grandmother role in the house that carried such skill and with no hesitation made such preparations every day.

As time changed, the Turkish Cypriot cooking traditions started to change as lifestyle changed for the women figure in the house.

We amongst many believe that Hamur and its owners have restored this gap and have been serving us with traditional Cypriot pastry dishes that many households, men,women and children thought to be fading.

Interpretation of what you can find on the menu:

MANTI (Ravioli)- Stuffed pastry with choice of Beef minced meat, Chicken minced meat, cheese and Hellim, Lentil and Yoghurt. Turkish style (with yoghurt) or Cypriot style (with grated Hellim).

PASTRY - Cypriot style fried pastry pockets filled with choice of Beef minced meat, Hellim or cottage cheese (sweet).

GOZLEME - Home made thin layer of grilled dough (pancake style) with choice of Beef minced meat, Chicken minced meat, Hellim, Mushrooms, Spinach, Onion and Hellim, or Lentil.
