Al-Gharb is a hidden gem amidst the high-rise buildings of Albufeira, not far from the Aldi, and it's not hard to understand why it's always packed. It's the ultimate spot for breakfast, coffee, and lunch, and I'm a big fan!
For breakfast, you can choose from delicious dishes like the Acai superfood (only 7 euros), Granola (6.80 euros), Fruit pancake (8 euros), or the indulgent eggs Benedict (10 euros).
The lunch options are equally enticing, with choices like Toast avocado (6.50), Banana pancake (8 euros), 2 Burritos with sauces (8.80 euros), or a generous bowl of Romesco soup with bread and butter (6.50).
The coffee here is the best in the Algarve, accompanied by delicious homemade pastries. What more could you ask for?
Furthermore, almost every dish on the menu is available in gluten-free and vegan versions, which is a huge plus. The service is friendly and lightning-fast, with the charming owner Chantell and her German husband at the helm.
Al-Gharb is loved by both couples and singles, and even digital nomads enjoy coming here to work. You can sit inside, where the coffee is roasted, or on the lovely terrace.
As the cherry on top, they offer house-roasted espresso, the best coffee in the Algarve!
When I revealed myself as Mr. Hotspots after my delightful lunch, the owner even asked for improvement tips. That's true entrepreneurship, always striving for improvement. The team exudes enthusiasm, and I'm convinced that this is a fantastic place not to be missed! If only we had such a place in Almancil, I would be there often. An absolute recommendation!
Open all year, 7 days a week, 9 AM–4 PM. Dogs allowed. Also take away!
