Great English breakfast at an unbelievable price. Throw in free internet (or take your laptop and use the WiFi) and you won't be disapointed. If I'm being picky the plastic chairs could do with replacing or at least have a cushion on them. more

Heard good things about this place so decided to try the Sunday Lunch. Waited around 30 mins in the sun to get served. Wish we had not. The beef was tough and well overcooked, our " boiled potatos" were served in their skins and had certainly not been seasoned. TINNED peas, carrots, and unsalted gooey brussels. Yorkshire pudding truely awful... more

What more could you want? The Cottage Restaurant was our favourite eatery during our week's stay in Albufeira. The food was superb from the full English breakfast to Sunday roast to that delicious steak and ale pie all of which was remarkable value for money and was served by the ever friendly staff. If I was to make one slight... more

Cheapest and best meal we had in our 2 weeks stay in Albufeira and that also included the taxi fare from the Old Town area. Food was excellent (steak pie), 2 girls serving were very friendly and will be back again. Everybody seemed to be heading into the Cottage which was a good sign with no need for the touts... more

Oh what a wee gem this restaurant was! Went there three times in the holiday and not once did it disappoint. The food was really good quality and almost all of it was home made (both main meals and desserts!). The baked jacket potatoes really won me over though - I will struggle to find a better tasting one! It... more

Was very dissatisfied, when eating at the Cottage, thought it would be a great place to eat after reading all the wonderful reviews, but I was very, very wrong. The menu was very big and had lots of variety, but me and my family felt that the food tasted microwaved and we felt let down. Also the staff were not... more
