Brendon Bar & Restaurant - Palolem

Visited in a group of 10 and booked 5 sea facing rooms. Location is great and ideally situated on the sweeping beach. Staff really let this place down with their attitude and abrupt manner. We requested that all drink and food be out on 1 bill and we would pay at the end of the day. Every time something was ordered they requested payment. This was despite repeatedly asking for one total bill. Through the day we sat on the beds at the front on the sand. This was fine until about 4.30 when we were told we had to get up so that they could place some tables and chairs in their place. We tried to explain that we were still enjoying the sun and wanted to for another couple of hours. They were told we were eating drinking as we sunbathed, this was ignored and we were told that we had to move. After this we decided to eat and drink elsewhere. Also noted that everyone else had the same idea as the place got really quite on an evening. Some of the staff could do with learning to smile and appreciate we are where they earn their money. A bit of charm school and common sense could make this a great place to see. There are plenty of other places to stay in this area so would have over options to consider, all have equally great location and views. You will end up with more polite staff.

This shack is located on the northern side of Palolem. Brendons is a huge property with a number of beach huts along with a spacious restaurant right on the beach.The menu has good non veg options however the veg menu is limited.The shack has a good number of sunbeds.

The best thing about Brendon is it's location. As with most places on the beach in Goa , the food here is decent. The orange juice, cold coffee, egg fried rice and aloo gobi are very good. The cook seems very comfortable with all Indian Chinese dishes. The only good waiter is Ravi. His recommendations are useful. The worst thing about this place is the 10% surcharge on credit card payments. This phenomena only started after 25th December. I am sure this is illegal also. If they could change this aspect then this place is fantastic!

The restaurant is located in a great beachfront location. However, the loud music made it difficult for us to have a conversation. In the end, we decided to go somewhere else to eat. It seems like the owners may not be aware of the volume of the music.

I stayed at a restaurant located right next to a beautiful ocean scene with my friend and family. The stay was fantastic, with lovely rooms and great service. There are some areas for improvement, but they went above and beyond by helping us arrange a cake in the middle of the night to make my friend's birthday special. They even set up a candlelit table next to the sea, making for a truly unforgettable holiday experience.
