What kind of coffee shop is LaBarista?

LaBarista is an independent specialty coffee shop with three locations in Limassol, Cyprus: Agios Ioannis, Mesa Geitonia and Neapolis. We serve specialty coffee, fresh bakery, and homemade food and pies throughout the day. The shops are relaxed, family-friendly neighbourhood spots rather than a chain. The idea is simple: good coffee, every cup, in every shop, with the welcome of a corner café.

Where is LaBarista in Limassol?

LaBarista has three shops across Limassol. Agios Ioannis is on Makariou III in the Agios Ioannis neighbourhood; Mesa Geitonia is at Archiepiskopou Makariou III 19, Mesa Geitonia 4000, Limassol; and Neapolis is at Iakovou Tompazi 9-11, Neapolis 3107, Limassol. All three pour the same specialty coffee and serve the same fresh bakery, homemade pies and all-day food. Each shop has its own page on our website with a map, phone number and full opening hours.

What are LaBarista's opening hours?

Hours vary a little by shop, and all three open early. Agios Ioannis: Mon–Fri 07:30–17:30 · Sat 08:00–14:30 · Sun closed. Mesa Geitonia: Mon–Fri 07:00–18:00 · Sat 07:00–14:00 · Sun 08:00–14:30. Neapolis: Mon–Fri 07:00–18:00 · Sat 07:00–16:00 · Sun 08:00–16:00. Hours can change on public holidays, so if you are making a special trip it is worth calling the shop first or checking its page on our website for the latest times.

Is LaBarista open on Sundays?

Two of our three shops open on Sundays. Mesa Geitonia is open Sunday 08:00–14:30 and Neapolis is open Sunday 08:00–16:00. Agios Ioannis is closed on Sundays. From Monday to Saturday all three shops are open, opening early each morning. Sunday hours can shift on public holidays, so call ahead if you want to be sure.

Does LaBarista deliver?

Yes, for both delivery and pickup, though the apps differ by shop. Agios Ioannis is on Wolt, Foody and Bolt Food. Mesa Geitonia is on Wolt, Foody and Bolt Food. Neapolis is on Wolt and Bolt Food. Open the app that covers your nearest shop, or use the delivery links on that shop's page on our website to go straight to the right menu.

Is LaBarista's freddo spun or shaken?

Spun, always, never shaken. Our freddo is made the Greek way: the espresso is whipped into a thick, ice-cold foam with a spinner rather than a cocktail shaker. Spinning builds that dense, creamy top and a smoother, rounder taste, which is exactly why a shaken freddo comes out thinner. It is a small detail, and it is one we are particular about.

What is the LaBarista Club loyalty reward?

Collect 6 stamps and your next coffee is free. The LaBarista Club is a free digital loyalty card: one stamp per coffee, whatever its size, and once you reach 6 stamps the next coffee is on the house. Your welcome coffee is on us when you first join, too. The card lives on a page on your phone, so there is nothing to download, and it works the same in all three shops.

Can I buy LaBarista coffee beans?

Yes. LaBarista sells its house-blend beans through the shop section of our website, so you can brew the same coffee at home: choose the blend and order online. One thing people sometimes ask: we do not roast the beans ourselves in-house. The blend is our own, and it is what we pour across all three Limassol shops.

Does LaBarista serve breakfast and all-day food?

Yes, food is served all day, not only at breakfast. Alongside specialty coffee you will find fresh bakery such as croissants, muffins and pies, plus baguettes, bagels, sandwiches, wraps and overnight oats. Much of the food, including the pies, is homemade. It is the kind of place you can drop into for a quick coffee or settle in for a proper bite.

Does LaBarista cater offices or events?

Get in touch and we will help. For office coffee, a regular order, or an event, the best next step is to message us through the contact page on our website, or call your nearest shop. Tell us roughly what you need and when, and we will come back to you. All three Limassol shops can talk through the options with you.

How do I contact LaBarista or a specific shop?

You can call each shop directly: Agios Ioannis on +357 95 713 301, Mesa Geitonia on +357 97 956 510, and Neapolis on +357 25 043 740. For anything else, including office coffee, feedback or a general question, use the contact page on our website. We read every message and usually reply the same day.

Is LaBarista family-friendly?

Yes. All three LaBarista shops are relaxed, family-friendly neighbourhood cafés, and you are welcome to bring children along. You will find specialty coffee for the grown-ups and food throughout the day. For specifics such as the exact seating or facilities at a particular shop, it is best to call that shop directly, since each of the three locations is a little different.
