Food without noise would be nice

Am I the only person in Cyprus that is getting tired of loud pop and rock being played whenever i go out to eat in restaurants, taverns and other places serving food and drink. Do restaurateurs think customers cannot eat unless loud music is being played.
Is there anywhere in Cyprus where I can enjoy a meal and good conversation with friends without the tedious, repetitive, mind-numbing thump,thump,thump.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
