Guidebook for Albufeira
Food Scene
One of the best Italians you'll ever visit, including in Italy. Outstanding value for lunch and tourist menus. The minestrone soup, tomato soup, sardine and seafood paste starter, all pizzas, lasagna, carbonara, are just some favourites!
Been visiting the restaurant for 20yrs and yet to have a bad meal.

Local seafood goodness, pay a fee and they will bring fish after fish. Always full of locals. A very 'Portuguese' restaurant.
If only English speaking, either take the phrase book, or simply pay the one off 13euro fee (if memory serves correct) and prepare for an onslaught of fish.

The cafe at the back of the beach on stilts. Excellent chicken piri piri.
If you go to the beach and turn right, there is a bar called Sunset Beach Bar around 50m down, which is a nice place to chill out and grab a bite or a beer at any time. About another 100m down is a bar called Spot Beach Bar, which is my favourite of the two, and a place I frequent to watch the sun go down with a drink. Both places have full wifi access, decent snack food, and TV's on that normally show the sport.
