Bank Restaurant & Bar

Bank Restaurant & Bar Overview

Bank Restaurant and Bar is one of Albufeira’s hotspots. Centrally located in the old town, you can enjoy the best views of the main square, great food, live music and plenty of action.

Bank opens at 11.00 in the morning and runs right through to the early hours of the next morning! You can enjoy snacks and drinks all day long on the upper terraces or on the large street level esplanade. Both are perfect for people watching as the throngs move through the square in old town Albufeira.

In the evening (from 6 pm to 11 pm) the upper levels are reserved for the restaurant. Here you will need time to study the menu as the choice is huge. Bank restaurant features food from around the world and you can find dishes here that you probably won’t find on too many more menus in the area. The starters on offer include Crispy Potato Skins, Nachos and Belgian Endive salad. You can opt for platters to share – chicken wings or calamari, for example. There is a great selection of meat from the grill – Argentinean beef, Cajun Chicken, Portuguese pork and some huge mixed grills. There are Thai dishes, Mexican platters, Teriyaki steak from Japan and North African dishes of couscous with lamb.

If that is too much meat for you there is a selection of fish dishes and a vegetarian menu that includes Vegetable Tempura, Vegetarian Fajitas and curries. And if you still haven’t found what you’re looking for there is a fresh pasta and pizza menu. All this choice makes Bank a great option for groups - no matter how diverse the group, there is sure to be something for everybody. The desserts on the Bank menu are also drawn from around the world. There are the Portuguese favourites of Almond Tart and Chocolate mousse, alongside Tiramisu, Porfiteroles, Apple Tart and Belgian Chocolate Cake.

From about 11.00 pm on the restaurant reverts back to bar and you can enjoy live music every night. In fact, Bank has been known to mount their own stage in the square and host some great concerts.
