Harry's - Lagoa

Wanted a nice coffee and a sandwich. The sausage sandwich was disgusting! Who deep fries a sausage? It tasted like a load of bread and fat! When we commented on it to the waitress she said “oh yes it’s the sausage sandwich that people have trouble with, and yes it’s deep fried“ Are you kidding? You know people complain about it but keep on serving it and when it’s clear only one bite has been taken from it you still charge for it! An absolute disgrace.

Our visit to Harry's Bar in Carvoeiro left my family of six greatly disappointed and frustrated. Our initial encounter with the establishment was during breakfast, when we were informed that they had limited food supplies due to a busy previous day. While this setback was initially understandable, it was a sign of things to come. Undeterred, we decided to give Harry's Bar a second chance the following day. Unfortunately, this decision only compounded our dissatisfaction. Upon entering, we found no welcoming staff to assist us. Opting to find a shaded spot outside, we combined two adjacent tables to accommodate our family size—something we have often done in other restaurants without issue. However, our attempts to make ourselves comfortable were met with an extremely rude staff member. Her behavior was both confusing and contradictory. She scolded us for moving the tables, only to later contradict herself by saying we could have moved the adjacent tables. This interaction left us baffled, and her attempts to assert dominance further soured our mood. Regrettably, this incident set the tone for the rest of our visit. When our food finally arrived, the experience went from disappointing to disheartening. I won't delve into all the negative specifics, as I have no desire to come across as bitter. However, I must stress that the quality of the food and the overall dining experience did not meet even the most basic of expectations. It's with a heavy heart that I can say this will be our first and last time ever visiting Harry's Bar. The combination of unfriendly staff, contradictory treatment, and a subpar dining experience has left us with no desire to return. For those considering a visit, I urge you to exercise caution and manage your expectations accordingly. In the pursuit of fairness, I sincerely hope that Harry's Bar takes this feedback constructively and works towards improving both the service and quality of their offerings.

Lovely atmosphere, great entertainment,good service.A great way to end a night off. friendly staff.

We visited Harrys about 3 times during our week in Carvoeiro. The beer is good value, the G&T excellent and the English staff pleasant and helpful. We had toasted sandwiches one day and they were very nice. It is a cash only establishment. Unfortunately smoking people, including staff on break, spoil the food and cafe atmosphere. In Lanzarote, smokers now have to step away from people eating and it improves the atmosphere. In Portugal this does not happen so a woman chain smoked on the next table the whole time I ate my toasty. A member of staff even sat next to us and lit up on one visit. There is nothing I or cafe owners can do about this while smoking is still acceptable amongst customers. Passive smoke is something we just have to tolerate or go elsewhere. Unfortunately because of it I would not return to Harry's.
