Caffe Duetto - Silves

We chanced upon this cafe which is near the post office. It serves superb cakes, tea and coffee. The toasty was also excellent. You will not believe the quality or the price you have to pay. Much better than John Lewis cafe offerings or most arty cafes at home in the UK. Do not miss it out!!

One thing I hadn't expected to see whilst cycling in Portugal, was a sign offering 'tea & scones'! However, whilst exploring the back streets of Silves on my Brompton, came across the excellent Caffè Duetto. Proper leaf each from a pot ,& jam & cream with the freshly made scones.Charming lady proprietor. If in the area make a point of visiting. You will not be disappointed.

This is a lovely, relaxing and welcoming place to stop for a break when visiting Silves...or to make it your regular if you live nearby. Wonderful teas...a great variety, great coffee and excellent home made cakes and scones. Everything is tasteful, with a view to creating a peaceful and relaxing environment. The owner is friendly but also allows you space and time to just relax and sit, read and enjoy your break. Many people do not know about this hidden gem. Head towards the post office in Silves and go onto the street one level above. It is closed on Thursdays and Sundays.

Myself and my family visited this wonderful café a couple of times when recently staying near silves. It was run by a very nice English lady who provided excellent service and a very comfortable and relaxing environment. A tea timer accompanied each pot of tea which was a lovely touch. Would recommend the raspberry and mint fruit tea and also a black Keemum.

After walking around in the hot July sun and visiting the castle, we so needed a rest and a nice snack. This cafe more than provided what we needed - wine, beer, tea, coffee and the best cakes you could imagine. The lady who served us was such a lovely lady and we felt relaxed and enjoyed every second. The bathrooms were immaculately clean. The price was such good value for the amazing food and drinks we received. Absolutely well worth visiting when in this lovely town. Highly recommended!
