Christmas Day Lunch recommendation?

[guest3]

Can anyone recommend a resturant or Hotel that offers a good Christmas Day lunch, preferably the UK standard roast turkey etc. Thanks.

I believe Val do Milho golf course is open on christmas day. It does a traditional (roast)lunch every sunday

Try Barnards in Ferragudo - but book early.

I would be very interested in this infomation also. Many thanks to those two who replied, but are there really only two options? Or perhaps everyone is keeping the info close to their chest until they have reserved their own table! A 20 mile radius of Carvoeiro would be OK for us.

We are booked into Bon Bon for Christmas day dinner on recommendation - 45 euros for a six course meal ...... and then back to that log fire!

[2003]

Dosnt include any booze does it, I dont think so nowing the Bon Bon

[digger]

yea,
my place,
but it's members only

[Gambrinus]

Good thing about Bon Bon is that they have a log fire

Whats that about a 50% deposit? On a table/meal reservation?? Guess that must be one of those tell-tale signs that times are a-changin'

Try Maxime's, we had a wonderful dinner there last year.

[Ellie]

Where is Maximes please?
Ive "tentatively" booked Xmas lunch at O'Patio----never been there before--forgot to ask them if its traditional dinner--sent e-mail but so far no reply--can anyone tell me--will it just be usual menu there for Xmas Day?
Im getting nowhere fast---and may well end up eating sandwiches on CVOs praia--
Is Maximes traditional Christmas fare?
Obrigada

Barnards in Ferragudo as already mentioned. Flamingo in Carvoeiro (00351 282356 066) Great setting, great food, great company. If you have children(or not) PlayOasis near Ferragudo was still taking bookings on 7/12/03 with the added attraction of play area and Santa(282461122)
