Columbus - Faro Portugal

I was in Portugal for about 20 days, and unfortunately, this was the first place that made me feel unwelcomed. We had just arrived from Lagos, had a lovely meal and some Spritz at a different restaurant, and went for a walk. Still wearing my flip-flops, we decided to have a few cocktails at this place, which seemed good according to the reviews. We sat outside and ordered two cocktails, mine was a Smoke Tiki as per the waiter's recommendation, and it was quite good. We then ordered a second cocktail, and this time, although I understood it as a joke, I felt a bit uneasy when the waiter told me I was basic for preferring the Asia Mohito over the one she recommended. I laughed, and proceeded with my business, however, when the second drink arrived, I was immediately asked to pay. Of course, without hesitation, I asked to pay with a card, a total of 42 euros for 4 cocktails. I couldn't see anyone else around us receiving such treatment, but I didn't take that as a big problem. Later, when discussing it with my girlfriend, she felt quite annoyed. She mentioned she felt watched the whole time we were at that place, and being asked to pay just confirmed that prejudice. We were not dressing fancy; this is sort of a bay bar, and I am uncertain if that was the reason we were treated like that. All I can say is that it was a bummer. Although pricey, the cocktails were not bad, but the service did disappoint. I would not recommend this place as it does not live up to the good service found in surrounding places.

On pont rating 9,1 We had the minstinguet and the whiskey bacon stout (oeps forgot the name sorrryyy Both cocktails where really well balanced and tasty i found the dried crispy iberico ham risky but i actually tasted pretty good with the cocktail. Prices are fair and polticians are noble (only makes sense when you know the song: When in faro good tip to pop by this place for a drink or two Things to improve inside should be pimped to make seats in a small but classy cocktail bar outside seats and environment are /isnot inviting or comfy enough to stay long fix the cracking speaker

Very wide choice of cocktails from the most classic to the most creative. The terrace in the evening is pleasant to rest and relax after a day at the beach. Price per person: €10–15 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Magnificent place!!! We had some incredible cocktails. We loved it! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Great experience, we planned on going in for one cocktail but couldn’t help picking a selection. So creative and a great price. Staff were very friendly, especially Diogo the manager that evening. He even surprised us with a medley of his own creations highly recommended
