Odysseus and his men steal food and other items from Polyphemus' cave (a cyclops). They planned to take the materials and leave but Odysseus is curious to see what the cyclops looks like. They stay to meet Polyphemus, getting trapped in his cave. To get free they sharpen a wooden pole, get the cyclops drunk, and blind him by stabbing his eye while he's asleep. Polyphemus moves the large rock blocking the cave and Odysseus and his men escape clinging to the bellies of sheep.

No. The Cyclops lived on an island and was encountered by Ulysses in Homer's The Odyssey as he was trying to get home to his son and his wife Penelope. Ulysses men are caputred by the cyclops while trying to steal sheep and escape by blinding him and immediately leaving the island.
There are actually several different cyclops. They are considered brothers and live on an island in the eastern Aegean Sea according to The Odyssey. Some references say they are the sons of titans whereas other sources say they are the sons of Poseidon. Another place they may be located is in Hephaestus' workshop on Mt. Olympus seeing as they craft Zeus' lightning bolts.
