At night 25.05, we were sitting with my friends for drinks and food. Around 4:00 when the bar began to close, one waiter came to us and very rudely said : GO! NOW! We didn’t expect such rudeness and were concerned why other guys at the last table could finish their meal but we are not. But then she said: I CALL THE POLICE!
We were so curious how she would explain to the police that other visitors can sit after closing and finish their meal but we must get out immediately in that second and where is the reason for these actions.

That funny fact, when police came and that girl showed to police “THEY'RE HERE!!!” Police looked at us and just left not saying anything.
Do not recommend this...

Quite apparent the staff don't like the...

After dinner, I came by with a few friends, and we hung out at the British Bar chatting for nearly four hours, probably the longest amount of time I've ever stayed at any single bar. We took a seat near the front door, so we had a front-row seat to the live music duo that came by around 10 or 11 PM. They performed wonderfully, and it was still quiet enough in the rest of the bar to continue chatting as we enjoyed the music.
The drinks were solid; I had a caipirinha, and my friends each had a mojito. It's a bit odd to say that the British Bar was one of my favorite bars in Portugal, but it was still a...
