Algarve Restaurant

Algarve Restaurant in Overton Arcade in Overton-on-Dee brings Portuguese cooking to this small market town on the Dee valley, south of Wrexham. Portuguese cuisine — piri piri chicken, bifanas, bacalhau preparations and custard tarts — is rare in rural North Wales, making Algarve a genuine outlier in the local food landscape. Overton is a conservation-area market village with a largely agricultural hinterland, and a dedicated Portuguese kitchen here serves both the village itself and the surrounding rural community. For anyone craving the flavours of Lisbon or the Algarve coast outside a major city, this is an unusual and welcome find.
