Value for money is what is on the agenda in The Algarve
Just back from a month in the sun and observatons are that it is busy with tourists unlike what some reports are saying, however there was certainly a desire from everyone to get the best value for their money when it came to eating out.
More and more restaurants are putting on the set price 2 or 3 course meal which is perfect for a family or those on a budget, there is no doubt people are being careful on what they spend.
Typical price seems to be around 7,50 euro per person totally affordable for a larger family...well done to those doing it.
Prices have gone up in the restaurants be it through inflation or less people who knows, I would say the average increase is around 12% which again sqeezes the budgets of vistors, prices for drinks is the same as last year in most places.
We had some great meals and cocktails in one of the hottest summers I can remember and cant wait to get back
If you are in or going to The Algarve then dont be affraid of the cost shop around, up side streets away from the main drag and you will be amazed at what you can find.
We will bring more and more great places to http://www.finditalgarve/ over the coming months to help you find the places for best value in The Algarve.
If you have a favourite place then tell them about our site and we will give them maximum exposure on the web
