Just returned from a couple of weeks in Algarve, where I was staying around the corner from JK's. What a nice spot, really friendly, and lots of lovely fresh 'comfort food' – much as I love Portuguese eats, it's always nice to have the option of a full English, or whatever, when you fancy it. Favourite was the goat cheese... More

We stayed in the Gale at the end of August 2011 and were advised to visit JK's. We popped in one night for some cheese cake and a bottle of Mateus (or perhaps two :)) and were sold! The owners and the bar itself is very relaxed and welcoming, just the kind of place we were looking for. We went... More

Hello. We spent a week at the Algarve, staying at a Villa that was no more than 15 feet away from JKs. We went there every day for something to eat, whether it was in the morning or in the evening. Great food, and at a reasonable price. I'm a vegetarian and Mack and his family were so so accomodating,... More

Lovely family owned and run bar in Sesmarias, if you are in the area, a visit J.Ks bar Estrada do Castelo is a must. Good food at reasonable prices. Friendly family run business that also offer free pick up and drop off if ordering food. They also have a Mini-bus service (8 seaters) for other trips & airport runs. More

This is no longer a trip to a restaurant for us, it's like visiting old friends! We have been welcomed back so many times to JK's but it never gets boring and they are always friendly! This year we sampled more delicious food than ever, a mixture of all cusines! Mac, Hazel, Jason and Michelle were as friendly as ever... More
