Tanya, her sister, & her Dad & Mum built this brilliant place and oh yea her cousin designed the logo. And it’s beautiful. - Edit
Set in a residential part of the city Bancha has a lovely shopfront and some nice wooden outside furniture.
Read moreUpon entering one gets a big vegan 🌱 hello from Tanya.
I could see from her whole vibe that I would love anything she creates. We went for the meal deal and we were not disappointed.
The tea was slightly smokey and thirst quenching (it was 32 🥵 degrees outside) the soup balanced & perfect.
The main course was simply to die for and perfectly balanced nutritionally. I could have eaten it all day but alas I gobbled it down because I’d been in the gym earlier pumping iron.
She had 3 desserts and we ordered them all. Two she made herself and the vegan Ice cream was made by an Italian friend of hers who lives nearby on the beach.
Check out my pictures as seeing is believing.
The future is vegan 🥑

Best vegan restaurant in the Algarve! - Edit
Had such a great time at “Bancha” and enjoyed the most delicious vegan meals with my family. The space is so refreshing and beautifully decorated and the service is so warm and welcoming! But the icing on the cake was the superb food; so fresh and delicious! I had the Beetroot cream soup, the iconic Tempeh burger and I couldn’t get enough of their Natural Watermelon juice! To finish off, their guilty-free insanely delicious vegan Tiramisu! Couldn’t recommend this place more 💚 Can’t wait to go back for more! Xx

Fresh and Flavourful - Edit
We are visiting Portimao and are lucky to be renting a place a few hundred meters from this sweet cafe. It's a warm, peaceful, and beautifully decorated restaurant. The owner is so lovely. We enjoyed the menu of the day which was so fresh and flavourful. Since we will be in the area for almost two months we will be visiting this cafe weekly. The owner also makes her own organic sourdough bread with spelt and rye. Orders can made two days in advance.

Tasty food, super nice staff - Edit
I’d like warmly recommend this place - in a quiet street, super nice owner / staff, all time with smile, perfect food, tasty fresh juices, delicious cakes. My daughters ordered daily menu and cinamon pudding and traditional Portugese dessert salami. I’m raw vegan and I ordered fresh juice and salad - salad was huge and soooo yummy. We definitely will be back till we leave this place. Love it. Must visit!

Wonderful service and food - Edit
We had the burger and oatmeal rice with beans and both were very tasty. My mom ordered a plain salad with nothing and the lady even though confused at first made exactly what she wanted. We then tried the dessert which was yummy cinnamon pudding and a portuguese salame cake (not sure i’m spelling it right). Both of them were very good. The lady serving us was nice and spoke well english

Fomos almoçar. O espaço é agradável e bem decorado com espaço de esplanada. Tem um menu de almoço diário com chá, sopa e prato. Sobremesas e sumos são pagos separadamente. Além do preto do dia têm uma opção de hambúrguer de tempeh. O serviço foi muito simpático. A comida muito saborosa e natural!

Plain salad - Edit
Very basic salad with a bit of tempeh and a spoon of couscous for 9,50! Not worth it

Why doesnt happy cow have a 6 star option?? - Edit
What a place, food was brilliant and a lovely lady serving. The food was fresh, tasty, healthy, and i think it was quite traditional. Its a little out of town but you should definately venture out to give it a try. Brilliant, thank you

A hidden gem - Edit
We absolutely love this hidden gem. We have eaten here twice, always choosing the full menu. The ladies are so welcoming and friendly and speak English which is a great help. The menu is always wholesome and delicious. Very good value. Once you've found this place, with parking outside, you'll keep coming back. Not in a pretty area but it doesn't matter when you're a hungry vegan!
