This is a traditional Portuguese Taverna full of rustic charm, located in the centre of a friendly village a few minutes drive from the pretty, medieval town of Penela.
The Restaurant can seat 34 indoors and a further 28 on the terrace outside, adjacent to which there are outbuildings offering storage for logs and outdoor furniture and a vegetable garden where the owners grow produce for use in the restaurant. The kitchen is fully equipped and the toilet facilities are brand new. The premises were recently rewired and re-plumbed. The restaurant/bar area has a wood burner and most furnishings are included. There is a small shop facility next to the bar where locals can purchase essential items.
The current owners are English and the food is a mainly traditional British menu cooked to a high standard and people travel from miles around to sample the fish and chips and the legendary Sunday roasts. It is also popular with the local Portuguese community who pop in on a daily basis for coffee, wine and a chat. Themed evenings featuring cuisine from around the world are held on a regular basis.
The owner's accommodation is centrally heated and comprises a spacious fitted kitchen, a large lounge with a dining area, two good sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is a large attic which could be converted to provide further accommodation and two roof terraces with stunning views of the surrounding area.
Here is a wonderful opportunity for someone with the energy and enthusiasm to take this popular business to the next level.
