Boca do Inferno
Boca do Inferno is a chasm located in the seaside cliffs close to the Portuguese city of Cascais, in the District of Lisbon. The seawater has access to the deep bottom of the chasm and vigorously strikes its rocky walls, making it a popular tourist attraction.
Mercado da Vila - Cascais
Throughout the year, the village of Cascais Market presents you with themed market for everyone . A very tasty calendar with the ingredients that form part of Portuguese table. From wine to beer, seafood sardine, chocolate sweets to the convent, still going by the Court Market.
De Benedictis - Gastronomia Italiana
Delicious family-owned Italian Restaurant in the heart of Cascais. Very unassuming from the outside but amazing food and reasonable prices.
Kafeine
Lovely brunch spot by the marina. Quite busy so best to pre-book. Croissants are made to order and are HUGE.
Milkees Cascais
Best coffee shop in Cascais. Approx. 950m from outside the Hotel Baia in the centre of Cascais. Less than 15 minutes to walk and although it's uphill, it's definitely worth it.
The pain au chocolat is a winner. Their scrambled eggs on toast and avocado & tomato on toast are both 10/10.
SEN
Vietnamese food with amazing service and view of the ocean. Live music from pianist creates a lovely ambience.
Mar do Inferno
Gorgeous seafood restaurant by the sea. Nice seafood rice, sea bass and sides. Handy to have insect spray in your bag if sitting outside.
Latina Grill
Laidback steakhouse a few mins drive from the centre of Cascais. Service is great as is the wine. Waiter who was also the owner and head chef recommended our whole meal and everything was great.
Moules & Gin
Amazing mussels. Gratin with cheese as a starter is divine. Would recommend the moules munière and moules pesto. Pasta with main is a good option as the mussels are served with a lot of flavoursome sauce.
Liquid Lounge
Rooftop bar located above SEN restaurant. Incredible views and nice chilled atmosphere. Good for music and cocktails.
