Specialties
Welcome to The Brasserie, a neighbourhood restaurant and bar. The ideal location for locals and travellers to the area. Our aim is simple - to give our guests a relaxing experience in a casual setting, with a good ambience, wonderful food, cocktails, beers and wines, or a combination thereof, and providing a good service along the way.
Due to the current health situation, The Brasserie only serves dinner. Our chefs have evolved the menu, and we would call it International cuisine. Most of our dishes are 100% gluten-free. We have a good selection of Belgian beers served in their original glasses. We have installed a self-tap beer wall last winter. Like you obtain money from an ATM, our beer is tapped by yourself. Come and enjoy our selection of Portuguese wines & cocktails on our comfortably renewed ocean shaded lounge terrace in summer, or in our restaurant with our log fired heater on colder days in winter.
History
Established in 2018.
Now in our third year, we continue to develop The Brasserie. This past winter we have installed a beer wall. This is a self-pour installation. Obtain a card from the till, and use the card to obtain beer. We have six different beers on tap. Furthermore, we have a new chef, and our evening menu has evolved.
Due to the current health situation, The Brasserie is open from 14:00 until 23:00 where we have a Happy Hour from 14:00 till 18:00; The kitchen is open for dine-in, as well as takeaway & delivery, between 18:00 and 22:00 hours. The 23:00 time is an instruction by the Portuguese authorities.
Meet the Business Owner: KRISTIEN H.
Kristien and her husband Paul, have travelled and lived the expat lifestyle for the last decade and a half, and we have seen much of the world. Kristien is a Belgian national, and is fluent in English, Dutch, French and German, as well a decent understanding of Portuguese. She is a natural "Front of House" receptionist, ensuring clients are at ease, and chatting with them. Taking orders and transferring them to the kitchen. Also encouraging new staff to perform as per her expectations. Her mother once had a party centre, and she experienced that business from an early age. Having lived internationally, we ourselves often went out. We have seen so many examples of good and less good services, that we have a relatively high expectation.
