This is one of the best bars in Lagos. My wife and I have been on holiday to Lagos.for the last 15 years and we never miss calling in at "The Old Tavern". So we recomend you call in and see Micheal and Marilyn for a great night out with great music and a great range of beers,wine's and spirits.... more

Situated in the old town of Lagos, Portugal this bar is an institution. Great priced cocktails and happy hours practically all night. Add to that a family atomsphere and live sport on the TV's and you have a recipe for a great night. The hosts Michael and Marilyn are great fun, spinning great sounds from the past and mixing luscious... more

Well to start with this is a little different from the bars around it. Catering for a older customer with retro music. I am 26 but love the sounds of the 70s and 80s, I was there in march 2009 so the place was quiet but still had great atomsphere. The lady (Marylin) who runs the bar is quirky a... more

Our first visit to Lagos, we came across the Old Tavern, brilliant atmosphere, superb music and welcomed by very friendly staff. Marilyn and Michael are great, and the cocktails they serve are out of this world. Sat at the bar listening to the music, we were mesmerized by the speed marilyn mixed the cocktails and although very busy they made... more

We are a family who love the Algarve, and have travelled there on many occasions over the past 6 or 7 years. This summer, we came across a hidden gem in Lagos - The Old Tavern. To describe it as 'family friendly' is an understatement. Michael & Marilynn (and staff) cater for all ages and tastes. The kids have multiple... more

I have just returned home after a 10 day stay in Lagos, I think we found the old tavern on about day 5 of our stay, I just wished we had found it sooner. Marilyn and Michael are fantastic hosts, they played my kinda music, seletions fom the 60's 70's and 80's and they dont mind you singing ( even... more

Used this bar a few times mainly early as its next to a great restaurant No Patio. They do some great cocktails and the staff are friendly as well. The barman Peter I think has a good knowledge of the area and can give you some good tips on places to visit. I must say his mojitos are to die... more

Went to The Old Tavern for one drink and ended up there all night! Had a fantastic time, the atmosphere was great, everyone was very friendly. Marilyn's cocktails are awesome and the Stawberry Daquiri is definately recommended, it was fantastic! Michael played great tunes that got everyone singing and made the night even more fun. Even went back the next... more

We spent 9 days in Lagos and every night in The Old Tavern. Its the best bar in Lagos, great music and even better cocktails (thanks for the midori sours). This bar is well worth a visit and both Maralyn and Michael will make you feel welcome as they do with everyone that comes through the door. we will definitely... more

The Old Tavern is a truly fantastic bar and a fun place for everyone to get the most out of their holiday! I lived in Lagos for two months at the start of the summer and witnessed first hand (on a nightly basis!) the enjoyment people got out of this brilliant venue. Unfortunately, im unable to go back this September... more
