    Beautiful location, slight disappointment

    Food is good for snacks and drinks are fine. However, they were out of a local craft beer I like but the soup and cheese board were just fine.

    Great with kids

    We had a great relaxing time and good food, the kids can entertain themselves without us worrying. I had the nero pasta and liked it very much. Friendly staff, beautiful view, recommended.

    Exceptional Food & Service!

    Exceptionally friendly, authentic service. Catered for our vegan needs to a tee and gave us a lovely take away for the portions beyond our needs. Plus add an awesome location and good value. Highly recommend.

    Nice place with a remarkable view

    Situated at the beach, the bar proposes a wide range of snacks and drinks. Try specialities of the chef that you can call azorian burger. Terrasse with a splendid view at the ocean.
