Small, gay-friendly Portuguese cafe & bar in Portimao, serving regional food - sandwiches, seafood, tapas and drinks. The staff are attentive and the atmosphere is very nice. If you're looking for a more local and traditional feel, this restaurant hits the spot.

This gay friendly bar in Portugal has an undeniably camp aesthetic. With an abundance of leopard print and a collection of Hollywood starlet portraiture, this is probably the gayest place in Albufeira.
