Come in the morning for breakfast or in the evening for the last bottle — the kitchen is open all day, without the afternoon break that shuts half of Cascais. A private room with a shared table, a green terrace, an upper floor for celebrations and parking at the door, at Bloom Marinha.
The terrace opens with breakfast and closes with the last bottle. In between: coffee we roast ourselves, cake, a sunset spritz and no hurry at all. It sits inside Bloom Marinha, among the greenery and away from the traffic — the place for a whole afternoon. On Fridays the DJ plays out here.

“I cook what I like to eat: good produce, European technique and the home recipes I take with me to every restaurant. In Cascais that means, above all, fresh fish and seasonal produce — so the menu changes with the seasons.”
