To taste absolutely espada, sardinha, carne de porco alentejana, pudding and pera bebada.
To do during your visit to Peniche.“

“Discovered the best food in Portugal by chance. The reserved host seems a bit grumpy at first, but then warms up. The food is at star level. A must is the dried tuna fish and goose liver. A real wow effect. We'd love to come back. Thanks!“

“Great restaurant with amazing food. Fish cooked perfectly, mushroom rice was so delicious, and the service was impressive. Huge plus that outside patio is dog friendly ?
I had never expected that a small town like Peniche would have such a gem.“

“It is an ideal place to enjoy excellent food.
They have typical dishes with a modern touch that make you delight in the flavors of the sea.
We shared some incredible battered sardines, no oil left over, tender and very tasty.
The second courses were a pleasant surprise: battered octopus with a very aromatic vegetable and fish fillet and tuna and shrimp fillet with cabbage, courgette and carrot accompanied by a delicious sauce that tied everything together. To see a semi-dry and slightly fruity wine. Finally for dessert we shared a chocolate mousse with hot water.
The service was attentive to everything we needed, cordial and proactive in recommendations and advice.
Very happy with the discovery and if we return to the area we will repeat!
Much obliged!

Parking: Free parking very close to the restaurant.“

“Super restaurant de poissons.
Le cadre est celui des restaurants traditionnels portugais
Dommage qu'il ne soit pas très ouvert, de ce fait on ne peut pas profiter de l'océan qui est tout près .
Excellente cuisine.“

“The BEST experience in all Peniche . The food is very delicious and fresh. The restaurant not only serves spectacular meals, but it’s also the MOST soulful restaurant in all of Peniche. The owners, an authentic and very friendly Portuguese family, make the atmosphere even more pleasant and uniquely charming. I highly recommend this restaurant above all others in Peniche. Arrive with patience, as everything is prepared on the spot and Don't forget to leave a message in the guestbook.“

“We loved it!! Avoiding the typical restaurants full of tourists in the middle of July and tremendous queues, it has a terrace outside and since it was sunny we asked to be able to enter with our dog, inside a great table, and with water for the dog. Good fish, served with its garnish, everything very clean, and the staff excellent. If I come back on vacation here I will come back“

“After 23 years of living in Portugal. We have just experienced the finest Cataplana de Tanboril ever.. this restaurante is at the very end 0f the marine road at the entrance to the docks. The staff are very courteous and all speak good English. This place is a gem. We'll done to everyone involved. Thank ypu“

“For just 10 euros, their lunch menu offered a delightful dish of fish with steamed vegetables, accompanied by a beverage - a steal for such wholesome, healthy food! The atmosphere in the restaurant was warm and friendly, contributing to an overall enjoyable experience. It's worth noting that the staff speaks only Portuguese, but this didn't detract from the service quality at all. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a tasty and affordable meal in a cosy setting. I'm definitely planning to return!“

“Tasca do Joel, located in the picturesque village of Ericeira, is a true paradise for lovers of traditional Portuguese cuisine. On a recent visit, we had the opportunity to try the cod, which was simply perfect, and the tuna steak, a surprising and delicious choice. Finally, the dessert was the icing on the cake, incredible in flavor and presentation. With welcoming service and a charming atmosphere, this restaurant is a must-see for anyone wanting an unforgettable meal by the sea.“

“Good food, very friendly service and quiet atmosphere, it is a little far from the center, but it is worth it.

Parking: If you're lucky, you can park nearby, if not, go down looking for the direction of the lighthouse or port.“

“Very, very good, I will definitely be back, the service is impeccable (the 2 young people) and the food… ? My God, it was exceptional????. It's worth saying, as the British say, that this restaurant is “world class?”. It deserves more recognition and I highly recommend it to all food lovers??“

“I loved it, I became a customer!Despite prices being a little higher than normal, the food and quality are worth the difference.Fresh, visible product and excellent service.One of the very few places I like to visit because of their service“

“I always looked at Nau for its delicious bread and sausage and never for its restaurant. It seems like I've missed out on a lot over the years... I recently saw some photos of your dishes on the internet and decided to try them. An extremely pleasant surprise. The seafood cataplana was extremely well served and very tasty; made with quality seafood. Regarding the price, I thought it was correct. I will certainly repeat! Thanks for the experience!

Edit: Without a doubt, the place I go back to when I want to be well served. Thanks!“

“I think my rating says it all. The truth is that it is the best place we have eaten, 100% recommended, don't miss the skewers because they are finger-licking good. I couldn't take more photos of the desserts than just mine because the others AWESOME, delicious!!!
The best possible attention!!“

“Lovely surprise, this place is a gem in the heart of Peniche, very good amount of food, great quality for fair prices. The ovos rotos are a full plate with a delicious sauce and everything else, good to share with people!!
The bifana had a very homemade taste and the grelhada mista was on point <3
I recommend everything I ate there, and the staff were super sweet!“

“We ordered two pizzas to take away and they couldn't be better! The order was a Greek pizza without corn (with ham and mushrooms) and an all-dressed pizza with just pepperoni and an extra pineapple (without olives as these are included in the base of all pizzas). The staff was very helpful with requests to remove and add ingredients and very friendly on the cell phone. We ordered the pizzas in the morning for 7:30pm, when we got there at 7:40pm they were still hot and ready to go! We also ordered drinks and it was quite affordable considering that we ordered medium pizzas and they were quite large for what we expected! There were still a few slices left even after we ate until we were full and saved them for the next day. The next day we just heated it in the microwave but the quality remained the same. Great pizzas, great portions, great price and great staff! I recommend it to anyone interested in eating a good pizza in Peniche! (In the image, the pizza already has a bite, the smell of them was so delicious that I couldn't stand it and ended up trying it before taking the photo)

“Found this little neighborhood cafe along my coastal drive of Peniche. Family run cafe and it was perfect. Nice espresso, chicken sandwiches were perfect. BBQ on the patio where owner is making everything fresh. Next store a little market to pickup some fresh fruit for the road. Everyone at the cafe was so nice and helpful.“

“We ordered half a chicken and half a secret to share between 2 and what a small amount. The portions are huge and we ordered medium, they come accompanied by homemade fries and rice. Everything was delicious and good price. The chicken is about 9 euros and the secret is 15 or so. The superbock at €1.60. The service is great, fast and attentive. Although the place is not very pretty, it is worth repeating because of the delicious and abundant food, highly recommended.“

“We stopped at this space, without knowing it, and had a pleasant surprise!We ate the Mega Tosta, it was WONDERFUL. In fact, everything on the menu looks great and the orders that came to the other tables only confirmed this.We were won over by the delicious food but also by the service. We were received by someone who opened the doors of his house to us, welcomed us and provided us with a very pleasant dinner. Always paying attention to ensure that nothing was missing and to confirm that everything was in line with our expectations.We live more than 300km from this place and we just have to thank you for making us feel at home. Thank you, we will definitely be back!“

“It's a very cheerful place.
The girl and boy they serve are polite, beautiful and smiling; in the kitchen there is an environment of harmony (which is reflected in the food).
Unfortunately there are two or three regular customers who provoke customers with extremely rude ways: they scream, spit near you, insult you and smash glasses as you pass.....
To be avoided“

“A small place with the charm of an old Peniche tavern, the service and cuisine have been more than correct.

We (two people) ordered two soups, Pulpo a la Ginja's and three 1900, all very delicious but almost bursting, the correct price €35.

If I return to Peniche, I will definitely repeat.“

“Here, what you like most is the location... The terrace is large...shaded in places, sunny in others...and above all you enjoy a beautiful view! Bar service... And if you have noisy table neighbors it's not easy. But the place is worth the detour!“

“As we do not eat fish every day in Peniche, we throw away a few days of steakhouses. We must admit that these Portuguese are good. Very good chicken and ribs. Potatoes for how bad they tend to be in these places, they can be eaten. Recommended. We picked up to take home. Just in case we reserved before so that they had prepared. The lemon or spicy sauce is very good, but almost no difference once you start eating the pintza and churriscadito that is all“

“Great bar with friendly staff! The stunning location and high-quality food at reasonable prices make it a fantastic spot. Highly recommended!

Also possible to take away (toast with fries were great ?)

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp right beside the stairs, so it should be no problem! :)“

“We popped across from the Hyatt for lunch. It’s not a cafe, but instead a very nice upscale restaurant with outstanding seafood and service. This is a perfect place for a fancy meal or a celebration. The fish was perfectly cooked and the waiter was lovely.“

“(Translated by Google) I really like this restaurant! The food reminds me of Brazil, very tasty. The friendliness of the waiters also makes the place different. Grade 10!(Original)Gosto demais desse restaurante! A comida me faz lembrar a do Brasil, muito saborosa. A simpatia dos empregados de mesa tornam o local diferenciado também. Nota 10!“

“We came to Pedro for dinner twice (Thursday and Friday). Very good food, fresh fish, homemade chips, something that is starting to be rare unfortunately, the bread was also good. Good homemade desserts. Very good sparkling sangria!
Something I appreciated about this restaurant was the diversity in terms of employees. Whether in age (young and less young) or in cultural terms. It's beautiful to see. Good environment among employees
Service takes longer on Fridays but this is normal as the restaurant was full.

I highly recommend going there to eat. It's not super cheap but it eats very well!

Parking: Parking on the other side of the road“

“I share an excellent gastronomic experience I had today in Peniche at Tasquinha do Santana.Pleasant space with very friendly service from its owner Luís.From the suggestive menu, after a starter of very good cheese and ham, followed by a “choco à lagareiro” ofimproved preparation, thanks to his wife Maria do Carmo's cooking talent, which received top marks.Good cost-quality ratio.Returning very soon is the biggest compliment I leave.“

“We had bad luck with weather during our stay in Peniche, but this cozy cafe saved our trip! Such friendly staff (who spoke good English), a varied menu, and incredible food at reasonable prices. We ate once for breakfast and once for dinner, and everything was delicious. Many great food options for kids. Such a warm and cozy setting and we really enjoyed our time there. Thank you!

Kid-friendliness: Lots of food options kids will enjoy. Friendly staff.“

“I went in there a little late for lunch with the intention of eating suckling pig. However, it was a Portuguese stew day that I hadn't eaten in a long time, so that was my choice. Good quantity and very tasty, one serving is enough for 2 people. A pleasant regional restaurant, with normal service.“

“We were very well looked after in general and in particular by Joana, who was super kind, attentive and professional!The steak à casa/à the Marina is delicious, as is the sea rice. The sangria is fantastic and at the end you complete a divine meal with the cold condensed milk tart! We recommend!!!“

“Seafood restaurant with good quality, quality service and excellent scenery to enjoy a good meal.

Parking: The restaurant is at the end of a street next to a cliff and there is no exit. There is a large square around it that allows you to park easily.“

“Family-run, prices are low compared to their colleagues in the area, the menu is hung outside, those who enter here with the arrogance of demanding a dedicated waiter who is bombarded with useless questions, just to waste their time, and also pour wine and water has the wrong universe! Long live the substance!! Good dishes and the Lady's desserts are SUBLIME!!Those who have VIP claims but have the purchasing power for a "restaurant" should do a good examination of conscience especially when they go to write reviews.Highly recommended for me!!!!“

“Top top top restaurant!!!
We arrived at 10 minus 1 room on a Saturday... We were served quickly and with a smile!! The dishes were excellent!!! Everyone loved it!!! The employee was also great and pleasant!!! I recommend it to anyone!!!“

“Hi, we were greated by a pleasant manager. Seated upstairs with a light sea breeze and view out to sea.
Waiter was also well trained, english speaking which helped.
We were a family of four. Ordered lamb, beef rib, sardines and swordfish. Big dishes, probably didn't need the extras.
Arrived in expected time for a Wednesday afternoon.
No complaints at all. Cooked well and all enjoyed.
Could do with half portions for kids.
House wine was ok.
Spent £93 Euros.
Little up on what we normally spend, but we were in a key position. Didn't bother me.
Think the current 3.4 score is a bit harsh.
Everyone around me seemed happy and there was a variety of dishes.
If you need to pick a place, choose this and go upstairs.“

“In complete contrast with my previous review from a restaurant in Algarve, there was nothing we could fault at this place, starting from made feel welcome and nothing was too much effort to the fact that prices reflected the quality i can only recommend this reataurant very highly. Ordered a Mista de Peixe for 2 (mix of fish) and when asked if the serving was really enough for 2 fish eaters, the chef came out with a tray of what would the serving be, showing us exactly what would the fish used.
Having a teen fussy eater also being taken care of by giving her enough options for her to be able to join us at dinner was amazing also.
Definitely will return to Peniche and this will be a must return place.“

“I went with my partner and we didn't have any expectations due to the low reviews, however the place has very delicious food at a very competitive price. We ordered sole and we loved it. The white sangria is also spectacular, and the homemade flan is also a good recommendation. In short, highly recommended“
