I usually visit the space a few times, located on Lavadores beach, overlooking the beach. Good location, very friendly staff. Food ok. Today I ordered a Port tonic, which disappointed me. Very tasteless for the price. I'll be back, but I'll stick to the basics.

Excellent location on the beach with a generous terrace. Quality of the products leaves something to be desired and the price is high considering their quality. We ate a very poor rustic bread toast (with just a slice of ham and another of cheese) costing €5.5. Honestly, I don't feel like going back to eat food.

My favorite place on Gaia Beach without a doubt.
Great for spending hours chatting with friends and having a glass (or several, but ask for a bottle if you know from the outset that there will be more than one!)
Prices are reasonable if you plan on sharing with more people.
The staff are mostly very friendly.
I've tried all kinds of things and the quality is undoubtedly good, and being able to eat almost right on the sea is definitely worth the experience.

Lovely seaside café. Sit outside in sun or shade, or inside, both with a beautiful view of ocean and beach. Good sandwiches and light meals. Galician Estrela beer on tap. Specialty: fresh oysters. Get 10 with a bottle of good Portuguese bubbly for 35€. I like the poetry on the glass walls and tables. American author Jeanine Johnson Maia, who writes novels set in Portugal, is a frequent visitor.

The boss has the habit of being smart! He charges for ice, lemon and even orders the use of wifi! If they don't want to work, it's better to close than be unhappy with customers!

Last Friday, I passed by the bar and decided to have half a milk and a toast of rustic bread. So far so good. The waitress was very friendly, the atmosphere was very good, as it was a sunny day and it was pleasant. When I decided to leave, I went to pay, with the card that the girl left on the table, and was charged €5 for breakfast. A cup of coffee with milk and two slices of toasted thin bread. I didn't say anything, maybe even out of shame, but it won't catch me there anymore. I thought it was an exorbitant price.

Came back in 2016 and visited daily on our holiday. Staff very friendly, right on the beach and food and drinks weren’t too expensive

Beach bar with good space, good service, well located in washhouses with only a few high prices, but this usually happens near the beaches.

Daniela Carvalho
