We ate the menu of the day which was served in very generous quantities. We paid €26 for two people and ate very well. The only drawback was that the service, although very attentive, took a little longer than usual. Recommended!

Fantastic food. It's worth getting away from Albufeira to come and have lunch here. Very friendly and fast service. Very homemade food. We made two menus of the day, with desserts apart. To drink a jug of beer and 1/2L of wine. You should be grateful to be able to have lunch on the outside terrace with the dog. A total of €23.

Restaurant in Albufeira, “made” for tourists. Waiters who speak bad Portuguese and never understand it the first time. Little sympathy. The menu of the day which happened to be sardines that Saturday, and for that reason, it was no longer the menu of the day. It has affordable prices during the week. Tasty food.

O Barril is a traditional Portuguese restaurant. Very popular with local artisans (this is generally a very good signal). We eat simple, family cuisine there. The staff is very friendly and attentive to your needs, even though there were 12 of us at the table ;-) The daily menu offered is very affordable (updated list on Facebook) and the menu which fits on one page is also a good sign... Ample parking is available and they serve quite late at lunchtime, which allows you to have a homemade dessert in complete peace of mind, we have not yet tried it in the evening. Can easily become our "canteen".
Parking: Fairly large parking lot, in 2 parts, one in front of the restaurant, another behind below. Access to the car park is easy and reserved for the customer.

We had to time our lunches with O Barril because it's only open between 12:00 to 14:30. There's lots of space available for seating but you'll have either reserve a table or get there earlier than the locals and workers. This place is busy! Food, and their daily specials, are value packed and do not command the overhead that the 'touristy' eateries in 'centro' Albufeira. Prices are very reasonable and we rarely exceeded €40 for the both of us, including couvert, lunch specials, bottled water, 50cl of vinho da casa, coffee and dessert. We felt bad about the total that we often left a "tip"! Bravo to the staff and kitchen. We knew this was a great find when the parking lot is full and there are work trucks everywhere! Follow the locals!!! NB: Service CAN be slow depending on how busy it gets and what the daily specials are. The more workers, the harder the staff and kitchen have to work and serve everyone. Be patient.
