My favourite place in Peniche. My local cafe bar. Going there for over ten years. Originally run by Manuel and his wife who are sadly missed. Now run by the family. Lovely friendly bar where service and prices are great. I always feel welcome there.

Inesperado oasis en una zona donde no abundan los bares. Estuvimos muy a gusto en todo momento

Sou um espanhol que está sempre ao computador. Para mim, este é o melhor bar de Portugal, com as melhores pessoas. Um ambiente familiar português numa cidade onde chegam cada vez mais estrangeiros. Aqui, encontra o estilo de vida tradicional dos locais. Um lugar muito especial para mim. Muito obrigado à família proprietária. Um grande abraço e espero voltar.
