Restaurants and bars in Sao VicenteClub NauticoAlong the waterfront where they bunkered coal, when Britain ruled the waves. It is a long thin building with an open roof, shielded from the sun by flapping jibs. It serves food and drink and in the evenings has a live band of guitarists and violinists playing the local laments. It is the place to meet passing sailors and the few local yachties. Chez LoutchaOut on the edge of town on the road to Baia das Gattas. You may need a taxi to find it. But well worth the trip for the Senegalese, French and Cape Verdean food as well as the live Cape Verdean guitar music and singing in the evenings. Meals are about £8 and the food is some of the best in the islands. Pasteleria AlgarveThis is a Saigon-style bar with a terrace onto the street and bars with creepers protecting you against the pavement passers. No Molotov cocktails here though, just cold beer and wine and light snacks, as well as plenty of old British maritime relics. It is on Lisbon Street, the main street that leads from the fish market and French consulate on the seafront up inland towards the town hall. |
