Portimao

Post by Farol »

Although we often visit Portimao we haven't found any restaurants that we would rate high enough to recommend to others (apart perhaps from Dockside at the marina and the Naval Club).

We could do with finding a few good middle of the road type restaurants serving a good mix of Portuguese/European food.

Any suggestions?

One of my favourites for years is Carvi on the start of the pedestrian shopping street right hand side with fresh fish on display in the window, don't tell anyone

Hello Farol,
If you enjoy fish etc, Dona Barca is recommended. As you cross the old bridge into Portimao , turn immediately left and Dona Barca sits on right below street level.
From memory it is reputed to be one of the oldest sardine restaurants in Portimao.

Ciao ciao Cooler King.
