I’ve been to Albuferia two times and going again this fall. Yes there are tons of good restaurants there is one that really stood out on a side street from Ave de Liberdade with Brazilian food excellent meals reasonable prices. The owner is super fun and very friendly. Keep up the good work, I enjoy your videos.
Been watching on and off for a while now kev, and just subscribed. Lovely to see the old town, and those prices are comparable. It's definitely not Tenerife/Benidorm pricing, but looks a lovely place to visit.
Hi kev excellent very informative video Albufeira looks nice loads of bars restaurants plenty to see and do at reasonable prices I love my food and beer and certainly wouldn't starve or die of thirst there the nightlife sounds good as well i am seriously thinking of going there for my next holiday as I've never been to Portugal anyway kev don't let up keep up with your great work and those fantastic videos of yours coming thank you Kevin greetings from Swansea South Wales
Hi Kevin been re looking at here we of to here 10th May,wished hadn't bookd all inclusive but hubby did as work out £100 ech more ,I want try all there restaurant s ,we will have few meals out , looks so nice old town dint think stay for long in New but have wander,thanks so much your vblogs u famous in tenerife now my happy place .
I have to say that the prices are pretty comparable to California in that area for the most part. Possibly approaching Lake Tahoe prices. All that food looks pretty darn good though
Hi Kevin, I'm the one who told you about the "secret garden." You had to go upstairs in through the pub behind the Tattoo Club. Kay's saying it maybe closed down becsuse of covid. It had a big TV screen for the footie and there was a lovely wee girl who used to play the acoustic guitar.... Shame if it's closed
Off to Albufeira with my lady next week April 12th 2023 First time there ever. WE are Canadians . Love your videos Kev very informative. When are you returning there.?
Love Albufeira Old town. Not as cheap as Tenerife but still good value and what you get for your money is always excellent. The Strip is a bit of a dump though.
Kevin your vlogs are brilliant. Thought about going to Portugal, so your videos have been helpful. Just been ripped off in Amanda's in Tenerife. nearly 50 euros for 2 bottles of white wine, our fault should have read menu better. Their menu is the only one that doesn't show price for full bottle, its actually 3/4 last price. 🤪
Hi Kevin, went to book my apartment for next year in Albufeira with Airbnb and I booked, only to get my booking cancelled, because they have not updated next year's prices, ( I thought they should have accepted price shown) anyway I got an email next day with updated price, DOUBLED the price, shocking, so folk beware, prices are shooting up, it's lovely Albufeira, but pricing itself out for me.
@@ScotsmaninTenerife Yes Kev, it seems we are having to pay for the owners loss of income over the pandemic, but we all suffered didn't we, I've now booked a Benidorm apartment for next year, got a canny deal, just hoping our flights will be OK when we eventually book them. 🙏
The Portuguese live for food, their main conversation is all about where and what they are going to eat next. If you think the French are world champs at camping out in Restaurants, forget it the Portuguese are more skilled eat for longer the portions can be 30% larger than most traditional restaurant than France. I am not surprised there are few €9.49 three course deals, it's not something any local would go for. You have to look for places that have set priced 'all you can eat' deals, yet expect to wait between servings, in Portugal there is never ever any hurry over food.
Lots of choice, gets a bit confusing sometimes. Here is one for you.....saw sign said Full English Breakfast and it said Irish Breakfast (no idea what one of those is !?)......so what do you say to the waiter !? I'M SCOTTISH !!!??? LOL.
Sir Harry's bar...visited in may 2022 we had fish and chips, worse meal of our holiday...frozen grey mushy fish...we left it all, don't bother folks go else where
chinese resteraunt next to steppes pub 25 euros all you can eat all cooked fresh you can eat everything on the menu if you want all cooked fresh brilliant
@@ScotsmaninTenerife I knew what you meant but I just couldn't resist, and yes the prices are reasonable even at 3 Euros try getting a decent pint of lager in Bristol where I live for £2.50.
Just been here and there's nothing cultural or Portuguese about albufeira - it's Britain abroad pretty much - the food in most places is bland with no flavour. Lagos is much more Portuguese and cultural where you can actually experience culture

@@des632 not like me, but yes lesson learned. Check the menu properly 😅
Had lovely food in Prazeres on that side street near Pele.
Before they concreted the centre bit of old town square I guy from Croatia did a great puppet show with different puppets playing music.
I seen a guy doing a puppet show will check I might have video.

I agree Kevin it is quite affordable I think It is on average the same every were 👍👍👍
