Great little cafe on the side of the road. Had delicious toasties for lunch.

Emily Hurford

Kind, down-to-earth English family who run it. Great food at a great price. £21 for the feast in the pic, 3 beers, and two teas after the meal. Honestly couldn't fault it

James Rose

Fantastic food and great staff . Highly recommend the breakfast menu.

Stephen Streater

A friend of mine recommended this place to me and having now been myself I can totally see why. Friendly and very helpful staff serving good food, and a lovely relaxed atmosphere. I have been back three times now and will definitely make it a habit……as it’s only 5 mins from my home. Ps…..a very good English breakfast is served with proper bacon and sausages

What a find..the thought of a full English as advertised by Leanne (owner of O Rissol) on FB was irresistible and a perfect accompaniment for the unusual British weather (cold & wet) we're experiencing here on the Algarve at the moment...the food, service and coffee were fabulous and you really must pop up and have a try x

Sharon Barnes

Beer battered fish and chips, enormous portions, absolutely delicious.

John Hewitt

Lovely cafe, had a full English breakfast and it was delicious... The couple running it are from Leeds and we're great people, obviously being from Yorkshire they would be ... Very attentive staff and great all round cafe, would recommend and shall be visiting again soon
