Canto Alentejano - Albufeira

Personally I found the staff very helpful as English not a strong point ,nor for that matter my Portuguese. Not once but twice I ordered for takeaway a large salad and large French fries . Both of which were extremely reasonable for the large portion sizes I received . Actually everything was very good dealing with this takeaway.

Just be careful to not fudge your order as they will refuse to do it again, refund the money or give you credit. Absolutely disgusting customer service. Something you wouldn't expect in a tourist area. Avoid avoid avoid!

The best food stall in the Alburfeira shopping centre! Great food and good value. They usually have 2 prices which include a soft drink 5 Euro for a pork dish and 7 Euro for fish or veal or special chicken. Dishes come with 3 salad items from quite a large choice and you get good portions. I ate there 3 times during my week stay! If you don't want a full meal, they do a pork or beef roll for 2 Euro.

I had the fish (1 whole fresh fish) with salad, coleslaw and chips with a super nick bottle of beer for 7.50€, definitely worth popping downstairs if you are there doing your shopping around lunch.

We stayed in Albufeira for 7 weeks over the Autumn/Winter and looked for good quality food. We found a couple of places but nothing as well prepared or as fresh as this. There are a choice of either 3 or 4 main courses each day varying from grilled fish, tuna lasagne, piri piri chicken. Portuguese pork steak all served with wonderful fresh salad from the salad bar. For a main course with salad and rice or chips and a drink wine or beer included it was 5.50 Euro. Having a limited menu it is always fresh and very tasty, with great staff al speaking brilliant English
