Nestled at R. do Mercado V, this charming spot captures the essence of everyday Portuguese life, providing a unique and authentic dining experience that every traveler dreams of.

Snack Bar A Bica is the epitome of simplicity done right. The decor may be uncomplicated, but the heartwarming ambiance and the taste of homecooked meals truly stand out. With dishes crafted from the freshest local ingredients, you're bound to find something that tantalizes your taste buds. The menu boasts an array of options, but highly recommended is the pulpo salad, which comes generously priced at just €7.50. Customers have raved about it, highlighting its exquisite flavors and freshness.

Unlike many places that cater strictly to tourists, Snack Bar A Bica embraces a genuine local experience. You can indulge in their daily special (diaria) for only €10, which includes a drink, bread, olives, and a post-meal coffee to top it off. Pedro de Almeida, a satisfied customer, sums it up well: “A very simple and local place... the best was the pulpo salad.” As you savor each bite, you’ll appreciate how it feels more like dining in a friend's home rather than a typical cafe.

But it’s not just about the food; the warmth of the service makes every visit memorable. Customers like Chadley Ash have noted the patience and friendliness of the staff, making it a comfortable spot for those still brushing up on their Portuguese. They genuinely care about your experience, and their kindness is woven into the fabric of the cafe's charm. With the atmosphere alive with laughter and conversation, it adds a delightful layer to your foodie adventure.

Don't miss out on the delicious bica burgers, praised by locals and visitors alike; along with a selection of great tuna salad and decadent homemade chocolate mousse that will leave you craving more. Lindy Cahill mentions, “We had a fabulous late lunch here,” proving that the kitchen stays open when others have closed up shop for the day—a true blessing for those seeking sustenance past 4 PM.

In a world of cookie-cutter cafes, Snack Bar A Bica is a breath of fresh air. With its unbeatable prices, friendly service, and mouthwatering dishes, this spot promises to become one of your cherished memories of Sagres. Whether you’re a local or a traveler, this cafe invites you to sit back, relax, and enjoy the flavors of authentic Portuguese cooking.

A very simple and local place. It may not look so good and for sure not a tourist place at all. But here you can eat a diaria for 10 euros with a drink, bread, olives and the coffee included! The best was the pulpo salad for 7,50 euros
