Restaurants in Monchique

  1. Jardim das Oliveiras

    About 2km from Monchique just off the road to Fóia (signposted), this atmospheric place, with beamed ceilings, serves up regional dishes. Outdoors, the garden, shady trees, hammocks and seating scream ‘long lunch’. It is known for its javali (wild boar), wild rabbit and game dishes.

  2. Barlefante

    Signposted off the town’s main drag, this fun place has a touch of the burlesque, with hot-pink walls, red-velvet alcoves, ornate mirrors and green chandeliers. Excellent tapas (aka sandwiches). It’s young Monchique’s hippest haunt.

    Touted as the town’s best eatery for its regional specialities, this place serves reliably good cuisine amid country rustic charm. A few favourites include cabbage with spicy sausages and award-winning honey flan for dessert.
