We were with five and ordered drinks (fresh orangejuice that was indeed fresh!) and lunch (baguettes & nachos with cheese). The nachos were really tasty and served with cream, guacemole & salsa sauce and the baguettes were served with salad.

In the sleepy medieval town of Silves, Cafe Ingles has one of the most lovely and inviting settings…read moreyou can find: tucked under a tree-covered courtyard, next to the ancient castle. The location looked almost too pretty, too attractive to tourists, that I wasn't sure the food would be anything special. But it was! The menu is best described as "world cuisine". We ordered some red table wine, a super creamy ceasar salad, and a curry & shrimp linguine. Portions were very generous, and the food was predictably heavy (in Portugese fashion), but delicious. We should have saved more room for dessert because they were incredible and HUGE! They have a whole dessert case full of local specialties like almond cake, carob cake, and this decadent rum & chocolate cake with ice cream. I almost died of pleasure/gluttony while eating this thing. Service was super friendly and accommodating. We loved sitting under the twinkle lights, sipping wine, and watching the townspeople stroll and mingle. A sweet location with unique menu and Portugese hospitality. Oh yes, and Jonny the cafe cat. Lots to love!

The service was excellent throughout, attentive without being intrusive, which matched the overall laid back atmosphere perfectly. The space itself has a lot of personality, with beautiful art on the walls and an array of products on display that would make for great souvenirs or gifts. We ordered an espresso, cappuccino, a pink panther strawberry smoothie and a freshly squeezed orange juice, all of which hit the spot. On the food side, the breakfast burrito and the earth delight, a lovely combination of yogurt, granola, fruit, honey, croissant and jams, were both fantastic. The staff even brought out an award winning hot sauce to go alongside the burrito, a small but memorable touch. The crowd added to the charm too. A guy quietly working on his laptop with his dog nearby pretty much sums up the energy of this place. Calm, unpretentious and enjoyable. A great spot to ease into the day.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The server was friendly and the menu is well-varied. The not-so-good: The smoothie was a bit too sweet (made with a fruit juice), cash only, and a little expensive.

We went at a peak time around 12:30 and there were only two servers so it took a bit before she got to us.

We've had bifana a few times and are happy every time, we're not picky at all, but this was genuinely the hardest and driest, most inedible pork I've ever eaten in my life. We asked if there was any way we could get anything else. They took 20 minutes to get back to us, then brought the chef out. She said she refuses to make anything else or lower the price by any amount because "she made it as she made it", so we ended up paying 20€ for nothing. Such a weird experience honestly.
