We enjoyed our evening in Bica,Velha. Antonio made us very welcome. The food was delicious, Portuguese tapas, small very tasty potions. Excellent choice of wines from Algarve. We chose a lovely house white. Lovely ambience. Great music playing. No hesitation in recommending this restaurant

10/10We went twice during our stay in the area. They made our second visit even better than the first. Arranging for favourite dishes to be recreated and others made specially for preferences.

10/10Very friendly and warm welcome of the staff. Great atmosphere and excellent food. Working with local Portugees products and bringing their own twist to it. It was in one word “excellent “. I would really recommend this place.

Very attentive hosts, cosy atmosphere; perfect English of the waitress made ordering easy and quick. The food exceeded our expectations (since at first it seemed like a simple restaurant by the road). Yet all the dishes were so good we will definitely be coming back next time we are in Portugal.

10/10"Last night, my wife and I had an incredible dining experience at Bica Velha. Every dish was packed with bold, vibrant flavors, and their chili sauce was hands down the best I’ve ever tasted—just the right amount of heat, perfectly balanced with rich spices. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff who made sure we had everything we needed. It’s a place we’ll definitely be recommending to friends and family!"

10/10This place provides a great experience. It's more petiscos than fine dining, but well executed and with friendly and gracious service. When in Loule we try to dine here.

9/10lovely cozy setting, good music, friendly, informative, attentive servers. The menu was 5apas, which we weren't expecting - certainly not tapas pricing - €18 pork cheek ( which was delicious, but only three small pieces), a tiny quail for similar price and fava beans with chorizo, again really tasty. We were offered olives and bread to start with, which came with two jars of humous, one was beetroot - again quite nice. Unfortunately we didn't really have time to enjoy them as our tapas were brought out quite soon after. We did enjoy a reasonably priced bottle of wine also. Followed this with coffees all for £73. An enjoyable evening!

6.5/10The restaurant provides a beautiful atmosphere with authentic Portuguese food. The service has room for improvement. No starter, desert and coffee and digestive was offered. The staff could be more active/caring for the guests.
