Estabelecimentos D. Sancho

The Dom Sancho Cafe is located adjacent to the Senate and is a great location for taking a break from climbing the hills or visiting the historic castle. Our group of 4 stopped in for a drink and pastry. The snacks were good but charging customers 3 Euros for a small beer is a bit much. On our next visit we will take our break closer to the downtown area.

Had a terrific afternoon at D. Sancho and strongly recommend it! After visiting the beautiful Silves Castle we were in need of some nourishment which came in the form of a cold beer and a "tosta de atum" (a small Tuna panini that was simply delicious) for myself and a (seriously) mind-blowing almond tart for my wife along with a rather refreshing fresh watermelon juice. The setting is idyllic. With a number of welcoming tables scattered outside it strikes one as what could have been a writers café with the castle as a silent witness of history on one side and the Cathedral at your feet. I can imagine this would be Hemingway's hang-out if he was more into cakes than bloody marys! We loved it and strongly advise a visit. Top-notch place in Silves.

just before we climbed up to the tor of silves castle, after we parked our car rental in one of the narrow streets, we met on estabelecimentos d. sancho at the castle square. it was exactly what the doctor ordered for coffee and cake before he began our visit to silves castle. this device is a curious combination of crafts and caffe. it is easily released as a craftsmanship, but the outside seating area leaves the cat out of the bag: this is also a caffe. estabelecimentos d. sancho offers a good seat at the lock place, good coffee and great cake. service of the staff is Portuguese style, humble and friendly.

close to the castle. handing to get a snack or drink and buy some souvenirs at the same time. friendly staff, with snack seating outside and in.

here coffee and orange cake stopped after the rise of steep paved roads in 36 degrees heat. beautiful shaded terrace, an interesting loading area and beautiful clean toilets.

the owner makes the place! rui made sure we enjoyed our selection. also was happy to know about silves, robs and harbour to share. the load has one of the largest selection of harbour in the opposite a very pleasant...visit
