30 Best Cafes in Faro

“This place was so good that we returned the next night (and we only had 2 nights in Lisbon). The service was perfect both nights. The lasagna was amazing and the atmosphere was delightful. Highly recomment it but be sure to make reservations because the inside seating is limited.“

“This is a great local spot that we visited every morning. Drinks, food, and staff was amazing. The owners were so nice and welcoming. Stick with supporting the small local restaurants. This place felt authentic to me as we got to sit with all the local people. The pastries were on point as well.

Kid-friendliness: Open space and friendly atmosphere“

“The cheapest coffee in town!After spending every penny in different coffee shops in Faro, we found this little shop and we got surprised with the bill, less than 5€ for 2 coffee latte (Galão) and 2 pastries.Good taste and good atmosphere with locals.“

“It is not a restaurant but a bakery and pastry snack bar...the welcome is very pleasant, a terrace, competent smiling staff...the toast list, or excellent chicken or country ham...the place is very clean...I highly recommend ..screens everywhere for football fans...“

“During our stay in Faro we were here every day at different times. The service was always quick and cordial. You sit directly on the sidewalk and can watch the hustle and bustle on the streets with a cool beer. The food was also excellent and inexpensive.“

“We returned twice, first for breakfast (oops I didn't take photos), where we had scrambled eggs with bacon and an omelette with chives. As basic as they are good! :) we went back a second time for coffee and Pastel de Nata, also delicious :)“

“I found this cafe looking for a late lunch in downtown Faro.
We ordered a chicken pasta toast (€3.90) and a shrimp toast with fries included (€9) which were the perfect meal!
Adequate price but be aware that there is no ATM!
The space has a very pleasant shade on a pedestrian street away from the noise of the city, an excellent space to rest or read a little.“

“I took the vegan Avocado toast and it was one of the most delicious vegan breakfast i ever ate. It contained dyed tomatoes, mushrooms, Avocado, cheese, Rucola and walnuts. I am a small Person and was Not full Up with food. In My opinion price was little too high. Updated from previous review on 2024-05-24“

“Very good cataplana, we ordered the monkfish and seafood one, there were 2 of us, we had plenty left over and it was spectacular, we couldn't resist trying the fig pudding either. Highly recommended for quality, price and the treatment of the waiter and the cook who came to ask. It is not the typical tourist place, a local restaurant with traditional Portuguese food where what mattered was the food, not the decoration.“

“We had to wait for our car to be repaired at the local machanics so we took the family for some breakfast and coffee to kill some time. Although they only do scrambled eggs on toast the breakfast was really pleasant, coffee was great, the kids enjoyed cheese and ham toasties and freshly squeezed orange juice and we have plans to go back again as we complete our great vacation in the Algarve. Lots of delicious pastries to choose from too. Indoor and outdoor seating and a clean bathroom. You can pay with an Apple Pay too. The owner Carina used to have her own cafe on the outskirts of Paris but this has a lovely Portuguese charm to it. Staff very friendly and speak some English and French as far as I know“

“We went to eat at this 3X restaurant and we were not disappointed! Being vegan, we had several choices and they were all good and reasonably priced. We tested the vegan salad, the vegan breakfast and the hamburger. The dishes are balanced with enough protein (which can sometimes be lacking in some establishments) and the staff is friendly and smiling. The vegetables are fresh and varied. We are glad we found this place!“

“Congratulations to MR RICARDO and the staff for the 3 good meals I had in this space, divine snails, excellent pork chops, very tasty shrimp and the fries, the icing on the cake, because it is so rare that they serve homemade fries. I RECOMMEND it for anyone who likes to snack with quality and very affordable prices.“

“This was by far one of the best places i’ve been to. The service was great and very friendly, the owner was very polite and absolutely accommodating plus the ambiente and the place, where the restaurant is, was perfect for a good end of the day. The food was good and we didn’t have to wait long. They offered Tequeños (a venezuelan dish) and the food was amazing, it took me back to my childhood back in Venezuela. 10/10, i absolutely recommend this place!“

“(Translated by Google) It's a real typical Portuguese economy with hearty fare.The staff was super friendly.And delicious...(Original)Es ist eine richtige typisch portugiesische Wirtschaft mit zünftiger Kost .Das Personal war super freundlich.Und lecker...“

“Alfredo runs a fantastic chilled and friendly joint if you like typical African joints - he was so friendly and put on his Guinea Bissau music for us to dance to when we requested it, as well as bringing us some delicious snacks whilst we drank our beer - and this all despite the language barriers - we had a great time, we were made to feel very welcome and very at home.“

“We came to this restaurant a bit by chance...we were looking for a simple restaurant far from cars and with freshness. This was the case, the meal and the dessert were exquisite: very fragrant and very fresh, all on a quiet little plot sheltered by a tree! We recommend!!“

“Parking: Situado em zona residencial, há bastantes lugares à disposição. Podem não ser mesmo em frente da porta, mas há com certeza.

Wheelchair accessibility: Local sem degraus. Apenas lancil, cujo acesso é possível.“

“This is the best restaurant we’ve experienced in a week in Portugal. Beautifully prepared and presented, with unusual options compared to almost everything else we’ve seen. It’s nice to eat with a view over the water without being served the tourist options. Definitely worth a visit.“

“I had the entire place to myself when I arrived. I had read the bad reviews so was prepared for bad service but the lady seemed fine and more so distracted. I got a bean burger with chips, a beer and a Portuguese tart all for €15 which I thought was very reasonable. Nice that it's all vegan and decent amount of options.“

“Lovely little bar
We came here 2 years ago and so decided to come back
We spent our last few hours in Faro sat outside as just too hot to walk around before going to the airport.
The staff were so friendly keeping us cool with ice spray. We had a bifana and whilst not in a roll the pork was delicious
A great place to chill and watch the world go by“
