Birds Nest Restaurant

Staff is educated on coeliac disease and they did a good job accommodating CD even though we were a drop in. Would recommend calling them beforehand though.

The Birds Nest is a nicely furnished restaurant in Tenoca, close to the village of Boliqueime, Loulé. It is located 12 minutes from Vilamoura and 16 minutes from Loule and Almancil. The charming Lisa is a very sweet hostess, an angel, who does everything to make the guests feel comfortable. The Birds Nest is very cozy and romantic, without being a "mess". At the rear is a romantic and cozy garden terrace, so you can eat outside. The Birds Nest menu features fish, meat and vegetarian main courses (11.95-18.95 euro). The menu has many typical English dishes, and is regularly updated, because they cook with the seasons. There is also an extensive wine list. Gluten free and vegan are no problem here. We had a very good 3- course Sunday lunch on the garden terrace, for only 24,95 pp. We started with a delicious broccoli soup (6.50) As a main course a delicious mushroom risotto with lime (11.95) and baked pineapple with sorbet ice cream for dessert. (6.50).The delicious white house wine, from Alentejano costs 14.95. It was a delicious meal (vegan and gluten-free), at a good level, with top service, for a price that is clearly lower than in Almancil. Strongly recommended! The Birds Nest is open Tuesday through Saturday for dinner from 7pm and on Sunday for Sunday lunch from noon to 3pm. There are 5 parking spaces next to the restaurant.
