Irish owned since 2007, The Black Anchor Irish Bar & Grill can be found overlooking the River Gilao in the charming town of Tavira. Traditional Portuguese architecture lines the cobble-stone streets and river banks of this relaxing East-Algarvian paradise. 

Our establishment occupies a beautiful 19th-century building. An eye-catching and distinctive yellow exterior coats the building, radiating warming tones as the sun lowers in the evening. The Black Anchor Irish Bar & Grill is made up of three different areas that all create a different environment and collectively make up the essence of our business. 

Whether you’re after a relaxing afternoon drink overlooking the river or hoping to celebrate a special event with friends and family, you will find comfort in one of our settings. If live music and a home-cooked meal is more your style, then we are pleased to provide regular outdoor performances and an extensive menu.

We have a great selection of wines, ports, spirits, shots and cocktails. Not to mention a broad selection of international draught and bottled beers including the best pint of Guinness in Tavira. To match, we proudly offer an extensive food menu with wonderful home-cooked traditional Portuguese and International Cuisine.
