Café Inglês

Silves


Located below the castle entrance, Café Inglês has a wonderful, shady terrace for a coffee or ice-cold beer (pub-style food is also available). One of the Algarve's liveliest venues north of the coast, it has an elegant interior and live jazz, fado and African music at weekends.
