The Roof

Lovely area next to the beach - we came during the off season but was still lovely and a bit of sun ! We only had cocktails but they were lovely :)

We timed our visited to The Roof in Vale De Lobo for late afternoon so to catch pre dinner drinks in the sunshine whist overlooking the beautiful Algarve coastline.

The Roof has a prime location and as suggested by the name, it is elevated up and is actually situated on ‘the roof’ area above The Sandbanks restaurant below (see separate review for The Sandbank restaurant).

Access to the bar is up a small flight of stairs where you enter a glass enclosed room in which the bar is positioned along with a range of seating as well. Continue through this room to access a lovely open aired roof top decking platform that is overlooking the adjacent beach.

The deck is surrounded by glass to protect people from any prevailing winds and has a great range of comfortable seating from sofas to single chairs along with plenty of parasols giving customers a good level of comfort.

Simple, but tastefully arranged this roof top bar is a great and relaxed place to spend some time just kicking back, enjoying the sun, sea, views and general vibe of the bar.

The Roof has a great and extensive menu providing a range of routine drinks through to high end champagnes and liquors.

If in Vale De Lobo and you are looking for a suitably classy but, easy going bar then get yourself here, you won’t be disappointed. What a great place to waste some time.

Lovely venue, setting and scenery overlooking golden strands in a relaxed but upmarket beach club setting. The price point is in keeping with the Vale de Lobo location but not too elevated. Still possible to be among the only lunchtime diners early in the week in mid May but be prepared for a much busier scene come peak season. Parking is at a premium near the restaurant so be ready to drop off and hunt for parking.

Really nice rooftop bar with good atmosphere and a lovely sunset view. Our waiter Nelson was also really friendly and suggested a cocktail which turned out to taste amazingly!

Lovely bar raised above the beach... v good service.
