Absolutely brilliant little spot. Cash only with multiple tvs with all and any sports, the best pint in Albufeira and an amazing owner who can’t do enough.

Have been coming to Albufeira for a few years now but this was my first time in this bar, it looks small from the outside but once you are inside it just go's on and on, has a friendly feel inside reminds me of a really good working man's club, everybody seems to know each other and they seem like they are all regulars which makes it feel more like a local than just a tourist bar. It is cash only which for me isn't a problem and they have a large selection of drinks at a very reasonable price large San Miguel 4 euros, it also has two large pool tables, it is the perfect venue for everyone from someone on there own to a large family group.

The best beer in Albufeira.
€2.50 for a large, well poured beer.
Clean glasses, ice cold, and fresh tasting.
Much better than anything being served in the Old Town or Praia da Oura.
And cheaper!
Additionally, the owner is an absolute Gentleman.

Oh, and if you like Sports, like the name implies, anything you like you can watch it there too!

Overall, my favourite bar in Albufeira, by a mile!

Can't say enough good things about this wee bar. 200yards from our hotel and enough TV screens to show any and all sport.
Staff are really friendly and very helpful.
F1 was on while we were there and they showed it on the big screen for us when everyone else was showing footie.

Great bar, great atmosphere and great craic and great prices.

Refeshing cool beers (glasses from fridge), decent pool tables and plenty of live football on TV. Staff very friendly.

Felt like our HQ during our weekend in Albufeira.

The chicken was not properly cooked, and the taste was unpleasant — it reminded me of cheap kebab and dirty grill flavours. It’s a shame that foreign management has taken over such a well-known restaurant and is destroying the famous Jorge chicken. At this point, you might as well change the name …

Well, where do we start? Upon arrival, a warm reception by the wonderful owners, who showed us to our table. A group of 8 hungry hunks, to say we were ravenous would be a complete understatement. The chef(s) had a challenge coming their way. We ordered some starters including bread, pate and cl…
