A Confraria

Not many words in English, but a desire to make it work despite our own shortcomings in other languages.Super sweet proprietor, very tasty pork cheeks etc.We got a taster plate with different cakes for dessert.Will visit again.

Have been dining at A Confrária for years - look for it on the right side in the tiny Rua de Santa Maria do Baixo a few steps in from the church plaza. The food is simple, typical Alentejano fare, served with charm and grace. It’s clear that they want you to be happy with your meal, the service is so friendly and careful. Not to be missed.

Amazing food. Service with a smile. Locally sourced wines, olive oil and meats. If you want traditional Portuguese dining experience, this is the place. All done with a smile on their face.

a fantastic family restaurant ... the owner is proud to present different police oils from reginal producers, local ham and cheese and some quite savoury dishes like Bochechas de Porco confitadas and others ...

Until now the best food and service we had during our 10 days stay in Portugal, very friendly young waitress, explaining the menu with patience, the stifado was really delicious, housewine great, nice atmosphere.

Always a truly lovely experience eating in Confraria. The gaspacho is one of a kind and wonderfully fresh in a hot summer day. Hard to recommend one dish as everything is usually incredible and the staff always lovely! Will return every time I'm in Castelo de Vide

Ah, you gotta love this place.The entrance is a bit hidden in a side street but you sure want to find it.The walls are covered with wine bottles and cartoons making fun of the names of Portuguese dishes. Very attentive young waiters will take your order and counsel you. And you will eat local delicacies. The kick? You can sample the dishes. It is possible to order four samples instead of two full meals to try out much more. And that you should, it is very much worth itPro Tipp: choose only three sample dishes and let the fourth one be a sample plate of local cheeses and meats.

The family that runs the restaurant has several decades of cuisine experience.The husband in the room and wife cooking deliver great and traditional taste. They are gate keepers of traditional flavours of the region, not only the raw material (great produce and local source meat).They have the traditional dishes and game options.You can ask for wine recommendations and be quite happy with it, a great mix of food and wine.Do feel free to ask help about the village and its history. He has been helping a lot of Americans searching for their family normally Jewish roots in Castelo de Vide, even helping them to enter the century old homes of their relatives by speaking to the current owners.
