Zylia

Zylia opened on 3 June 2026 at 6 Bedford Street, WC2, a Greek-Cypriot taverna from Nick Molyviatis and Barry Karacostas in the Arcade London block between Covent Garden and Leicester Square. The house had said 22 May, then opened 3 June. Condé Nast Traveller, Wallpaper*, olive magazine and Hot Dinners all filed the meze room.

The little-known fact is the building: a Victorian boot-lace factory rewritten with Cypriot tiles, wicker chairs and green leather booths facing an open kitchen. Tirokafteri, sheftalia, lamb kleftiko; an all-Greek wine list; a Custard Pie cocktail with Metaxa, fino, fig leaf and honey. Daily 12:00–23:00.
