The 7 Best Brunch And Breakfast Spots In The Algarve

One of the best parts about breakfast in the Algarve is that there’s something for everyone, especially as this corner of Portugal is popular with tourists from all over the world. Since breakfast is the most important meal of the day, make sure to visit at least one of these amazing venues when in the area.

Doçaria Almeixar

Calling everyone with a sweet tooth: this is the place for you.

Located in Albufeira, this is a convenient stop that’s also family-friendly, dishing up everything from waffles, crêpes and French toast, to coffee and fresh orange juice. Doçaria Almeixar serves lunch as well.
