24 February 2025 – Ouzeri has made its debut in the in-depth collection of city guides, 50 Best Discovery. Following the addition of more than 500 new venues to the platform in February 2025, more than a hundred cities and towns are represented on 50 Best Discovery for the first time, spotlighting even more dining, drinking and travel destinations around the world.
The new additions feature more than 240 restaurants, 100 bars and 170 hotels. With this latest refresh, 50 Best Discovery now features 3,700+ hospitality establishments worldwide, showcasing the diversity and excellence of the hospitality industry. Each venue, including Ouzeri, is selected after receiving a certain number of votes from the expert voting Academies that create 50 Best’s world-leading global and regional lists.
Opened in 2022 and inspired by the lively bars of Cyprus and Greece, Ouzeri is a trendy yet traditional Cypriot-Greek restaurant nestled in Wale Street, just off the Bree Street hub. With sought-after tables and an ever-refreshed menu, Ouzeri has become a must-visit and much-sought-out destination for local and international visitors to the Mother City.
“It’s such an honour to be recognised by the World’s 50 Best Discovery list,” says owner Nic Charalambous. “This achievement reflects our dedication to creating an authentic experience for our guests. From our humble beginnings as a pop-up experience to this incredible milestone, it’s really been a journey of passion and perseverance. Thank you to our amazing team including our head chef Aidan Zieff and business partner Natasha Sideris, as well as everyone who has visited Ouzeri over the last (almost) three years, for making this possible.”
A highly curated guide, 50 Best Discovery is the ultimate reference tool for discerning travellers, diners and cocktail-lovers. A combination of more than 3,000 Academy members — who are experts in their local restaurant, bar and hotel scenes — vote for the venues that feature on the platform. This means those following 50 Best Discovery are being guided by the world’s foremost restaurant, bar and travel connoisseurs. 50 Best Discovery operates as an extension of the annual 50 Best rankings of restaurants, bars, and hotels, though is not itself a ranking. 50 Best is ultimately responsible for the curation of the database. Restaurants, bars and hotels cannot apply to be part of 50 Best Discovery.
