Whilst we were in Carvoeiro last July it was my grandaughter's 2nd birthday. Since this was several days after our arrival we were able to order a wonderful personalised birthday cake from a local patisserie. This year we are going back to Carvoeiro again, but my grandaughter's 3rd birthday falls on the day after our arrival. We are therefore unable to get to the shop to order a cake. We have forgotten the name of the patisserie, but it is located on the right-hand side of the road as you enter Carvoeiro on the one-way system. Can anybody please let me know their name, if they have a website and email address. Also, are there any eating places in Carvoeiro which offer take-away facilities. I'd be grateful for any information. Tony Knight

I think it may be the one near Harrys' Bar, on the town side, but can't for the life of me remember what it's called.

My Daughter bought my cake from there last June for my 60th and very nice it was.

If it's the one by Harrys Bar then it is called Le Doce

Magic.

If it's the pastelaria on the right in the first parade of shops as you enter the 'in' road there is a take away almost opposite, they do the usual piripiri, but they also do a variety of other dishes, I like the duck rice. There's also Forno Fraser's the pizza place near the post office & I think they have things other than pizza, and Oasis (opposite Hemingway's) also used to provide a takeaway service.
