Café Aliança

A century-old café in Faro that has closed, reopened, closed, and again reopened — and once, briefly, dared to broadcast the BBC to a city under dictatorship.

Lab Terrace

Lab Terrace is our favorite venue for a relaxing end of afternoon and a nice sunset. It's a quiet place across the marina, five minutes walking from us.

Green Buddha

Little Budha is a very advisable quality Asian restaurant in the center of Faro offering a lot for not a lot of money.

Super Pinto

A very genuine and affordable place to try Portuguese food while observing the locals.
