Amazing Food in Wonderful Locations
Now that you have found some of the best restaurants on the Silver Coast how about staying "here" so that you can sample a few of them and discover what this region has to offer!
Hundreds of Restaurants to Choose From
There are literally hundreds of restaurants, pastelarias, bars and cafes within a 30km radius of the villa. I am just listing those that are close or ones we have tried ourselves. In all cases reservations would be advisable from Friday evening through Sunday lunch and most times during July and August. These restaurants are in the price range from Cheap and Cheerful (Dinner with wine for two €20-35) to Mid Range, (Dinner with wine for two €35-60) none are High End.
Local Portuguese Fare to die for!
Tasca do Janeca
This is the closest restaurant to the villa just 1.5kms north of here, an easy walk or short drive. Local fare at very reasonable prices.
Paderia 33
Bakery and coffee shop, great stop for a pastry or a toasted sandwich. About 1km north of here on the way to restaurant Tasca do Janeca. Great views of the Ocean from the patio.
Restaurante Meu Jardim
This has to be one of the best restaurants in the area. Owned by a French couple so the cuisine is French/Portuguese, superb! About a 10 minute drive north of the villa.
Why bother cooking at these prices?
Restaurant Tipico da Serra
Our second closest restaurant, about 1.5 kms south of the villa. Typical Portuguese cuisine, famous for it's Bacalhau (cod fish) but has grilled meats as well. Friendly service and good portions.
Tasca do Tin Tin
On the main road through Alfeizerao. Excellent meat dishes and Tapas, the best fries ever! Friendly service, large portions and good value.
Pizzaria Portobello
Right on the Quay in Sao Martinho do Porto, so lovely views of the bay and boats. The best Pizzas ever with other Italian dishes to choose from, warning, they are not shy with the cheese! Good friendly service and one of our favourites.
