Have been looking for a new place for breakfast having gone to all the more obvious locations like Priory Farm.
O Farol is definitely now on our rotation list. Great selection of food and drinks for the whole day. Had the poached eggs and chorizo which was amazing and the full English was also top notch. Free babycinos were also a highlight for my children!
We will be back in the near future and with extra family reinforcements!
Whenever I've walked past here it's been too busy to get a seat and now I know why! So glad I got to go today. The staff are lovely and really accommodating. I ordered the BLT and didn't realise it came with chips and salad. An absolutely HUGE portion - was very surprised. I had to wrap half of the sandwich up to take home! If you're hungry, you'll do well here. Very fresh ingredients and delicious coffee. I'll definitely be back when I'm next in Purley. Thank you.
Lovely little gem in Croydon. From the front, not clear that there is restaurant sitting in the back.
Food was really well cooked and tasty. Had the steak and cheese tacos and sardines as a mains instead of starters. Only negatives for my dish is that even tho the beef taco was delicious there was hardly any beef in there. Seemed like half a steak between both tacos. Mainly bread and salad. The sardines was perfectly cooked but guts not cleaned.
My aunt had penne carbonara with very interesting mushrooms that I really enjoyed when I tasted my aunts dish. Very large portions and really tasty.
There was a special occasion there so was quite noisy. But fantastic customer service and food was delish. Would definitely go back again.
I'm extremely pleased with the service Nuno provided for my daughter's birthday cake.
Professional, friendly and attentive to detail.
In the picture the cake had already been cut by us.
Went for lunch with my son. Really good service and great choice of food. It's a great spot in Purley!
We've recently had our baby 1st anniversary party, great service, great food, nice cosy Portuguese restaurant, definitely recommend.
Went for dinner at this place. Wonderful little restaurant attentive waitress and chef's. The food was of high quality with rich in taste ingredients. presentation of food was fantastic. I will be coming back most definitely and recommend you venture to this place.
Really great place. Food was delicious and the staff were fantastic.
Went for my friends birthday and when I told the waitress it was friends birthday, she surprised her with a chocolate cake.
Amazing service and our server was first class, thank you!
Sweet little cafe where you can get a glimpse of Portugal. Fresh dishes and friendly staff.
The best club sandwich I’ve ever had in my life. The cafe is beautifully decorated and makes you feel like you have stepped into a Portuguese eatery. They have an extensive menu, and serve wonderful wines, cocktails and smoothies! Will be back again - thank you for your wonderful service x
Wonderful breakfast this morning. I asked if the toppings for my granola could be changed, really wanted the caramelised bananas that were available with the French crumpets - the request was happily accommodated and the granola was amazing! My husband had the fry up and was pleased with it, a good size portion too. The toast needed to be slightly more toasted but a minor snag in what was a lovely breakfast.
Lovely authentic Portuguese cuisine served with a very friendly smile. Cannot fault and will definitely be back. Obrigado!
Food was a good portion for the price and tasted great, (I had the grilled halloumi sandwich). Took a little while to come but they were very busy. Staff were pleasant. Lots of choice on the menu. I'd highly recommend visiting here!!
O Farol.. OMG.
From the warm welcome that greeted us as we walked in, through the help with food and wine choices, a great looking specials board and menu, and lovely ambience, we just knew the food was going to be amazing. It didn't disappoint.
Every dish was packed with flavour, and the theatre of the Chorizo was stunning.
Booking definitely reccomended as word gets out about this treasure.
Lovely Portuguese cafe. Nice decor and friendly staff. More seating at the rear.
Large breakfast options but unfortunately none gluten free
Very good atmosphere, service and delicious Portuguese style food. You can book a table in advance and you can even use as a quiet space for work. Free wi-fi. The price is reasonable. They have a choice of vegetarian and vegan option.
I have ordered from here online often and the food has been superb. A few months ago I popped in to see a beautiful array of desserts and patisseries which over the weeks following up to now me and my son’s have tried, they have all been delicious and not too sweet. I would definitely recommend as I have nothing bad to say, the food and coffee is very good quality.
