If in the neighborhood, don’t miss out!

Small but fresh. No extensive menu but the quality of the dishes makes up for this, maybe even good as you want to try it all! Relaxed and friendly. Organic and local as far as possible.

Pros: Price , Quality of the food, Relaxed and fresh.

Cons: A bit outside the center but it’s worth the trip

Pure vegan goodness

The food here is out of this world, a true taste sensation, even the tea was nourishing and so tasty. We had the tempah burger, pure juices and the set menu, all just amazing, we had younger children and ordered the toast with natural peanut butter and rice syrup, they absolutely loved it and was the perfect size for little ones. Lots of sugar free, unprocessed cake options too. The hosts are so welcoming, friendly and helpful, you are made to feel right at home, it’s a small little cafe but full of life. Everything is locally sourced, natural, vegan and you can taste the effort that has gone in to preparing it, we recommend this little gem whole heartedly, you will not be disappointed!

Nice people but food could be wilder

Open only in afternoon. Extremely noisy, inside and outside (it’s located on yet another busy road). The food reminds me of hospital meals; soft and without any clear taste. I had a menu whose main was mashed potatoes, small cubes of tempeh and carrot, swimming in a brown unclear sauce. The salad was okay though. And the coconut/cocoa cake is delicious! Oh, the pumpkin soup was also very nice!

Pros: All is vegan, Nice people, Nice soup and dessert

Cons: Noisy, Tasteless main, Noisy

Outstandingly fresh vegan regional sourced food

Outstandingly fresh vegan regional sourced food and drink, a great atmosphere in the Café and really friendly staff. The ingredients are whole food plant based :-D, regionally sourced and mostly organic. And all of this for an amazing price! I highly recommend it to vegans and anyone wanting to eat healthily.

Pros: Healthy, friendly, inexpensive

Great 100% vegan place

The restaurant is small but very very cozy. We arrived relatively early, at noon, and were just a group of three people. The service is relatively fast. We didn't choose the "menu of the day." I tasted the veggie burger, and my colleagues chose the tempeh burger. Everything was delicious, but the surprise came with the dessert: the Cocoa Salami is amaaaazing! Excellent 100% vegan site.

---

O espaço é pequeno, mas muito muito acolhedor. Chegámos relativamente cedo, ao meio dia, e eram apenas um grupo de três pessoas. O serviço é relativamente rapido. Não fomos para o menú do dia: eu provei o hamburguer veggie e as minhas colegas escolheram o hamburguer de tempeh. Tudo estava delicioso, mas a surpresa veio com a sobremesa: o Salame de Cacau é uma absolutamente perdição! Excelente sítio 100% vegano.

Saudável e delicioso

Comida muito bem confecionada com produtos locais e biológicos. O burguer de tempeh estava fantástico, assim como as sobremesas. O lanche que trouxemos para a viagem salvou-nos o dia! Equipa simpática e atenciosa. Recomendo.

A vegan and/or healthy eating, ethical food heaven!

My only regret is that I didn’t visit this place every day of my holiday. The food was delicious, well priced and of course VEGAN!!!! You must visit here if you’re in Albufeira.

Pros: Lots of delicious, healthy, vegan options, Ethically sourced ingredients & takeaway cartons, Excellent and friendly service

Cons: They don’t have 1 of these shops in my home town

Passionate about the food

We visited the Cafe as a family. My wife and I are trying to go Vegan however our son and wife are definitely not. We all really enjoyed the lunch and the preparation that must have gone into it. Clearly the owner is passionate about the food and that's what also makes it special.

Better than just vegan, it's macrobiotic

Usually, vegan restaurants serve a lot of junk food. Alfarroba doesn't. It's all locally grown and as natural as it comes. The service is up to par with everything else.

Best coffee but slow service

Coffee is really good (we had the "Coffee with soy milk") and the smoothies are delicious as well, even though they are quite small. We ordered two wraps (they have Hummus and Tofu) and had to wait almost 45 minutes before we got them (for what they apologized later). Wraps were good but nothing too special.

Come early since all the tables were taken when we arrived at around 1 pm. They do have take-away but I don't know how long it takes for them to prepare.

All in all a nice place with friendly staff and good food and perfect coffee. :)

Pros: The coffee was amazing., Everything is vegan., Prices were okay.

Cons: Slow service. , Limited seating.

Amazing food with amazing prices

We came here with my friend after a couple of not so great vegan food experiences in Albufeira and although we were expecting great things, we got even more than we thought! I had a wrap, a smoothie, dessert and a coffee and it only cost around 10 euros and it definitely filled me up. Everything was fresh, healthy and absolutely delicious. We have to come here again before we leave!

Pros: Everything is organic, vegan, healthy and made wit

Organic locally sourced 100% vegan

A perfect lunch time spot. The staff were wonderfully engaging explaining their ethos and the food in great detail, we were excited to order. They had a daily menu as well as a selection of snacks, including a tempeh burger, falafel wrap, etc. The menu came with a juice or tea, soup and a main dish for 9€. Excellent value for the quality. The main dish felt very nutritious and snack was not so snack size.

Pros: Great value, Great menu, The tempeh burger was delicious

Cons: You could tell the desserts were made very well an

Nice place!

After Didis sadly moved ouy of town this is the place to go for vegan food. No animal products in sigh, nice and committed owners, some great groceries, lovely juices and good feeling. To me the food was a bit lacking in spice and taste. Maybe simply because it is microbiotic and that is the tradition. Way too little real veggies, both cooked and raw, for my taste also. I do suggest giving this nice little place a shot, though!

Pros: Meny changes everyday, Menue on fb, The cold tea and the juices and smoothies are perf

Cons: Too little veggies, Too little taste, Too small portions
