.A snack bar that opens earlier than typical restaurants and serves hot food. The owner is a friendly lady who bakes and cooks everything herself. The food was outstanding — an absolute positive surprise. Nothing fancy, just down-to-earth, solid, tasty food.

Went for dinner but they were out of Leitao. Lamb in oven was however the most succulent I’ve had

This Restaurant nestled between the two railway lines in Tunes offers Excellent Portuguese Cuisine from the Owner Chef Fatima. She produces a wonderful dish of the day and provides great value for money. If you around at the Weekend ask about the Leitao (Suckling Pig) it’s some of the best I have ever tasted and is a real treat not to missed.

A great little bar/restaurant. Good home cooked Portuguese dishes, plate of the day etc.. Decent prices, friendly owners. Excellent pork sandwich (bifana) and home cut chips. Well worth a visit.

Cracking little find, they do an excellent English breakfast (even though they are Portuguese) a huge 1.2kg steak and I've just finished an excellent lamb stew. Also really good for the football!
