O Bigodes em Castelo Branco

28/10/2024: Bom ambiente, a comida muito boa, assim como a apresentação dos pratos, e os funcionários são muito simpáticos, bom chefe de cozinha.

20/10/2024: I liked this place. I happened upon Castelo Branco on a Sunday lunchtime, on my bike and I still had another 3 hours rude ahead of me, so I was a bit short of time. The service was helpful and efficient, the menu of the day included a pork dish or bacalao - I chose the latter and it was great, a really big portion, nice, crispy skin and loads of fried potatoes. I ordered a beer and was also offered bread and olives. Including an espresso, my bill was just €15. I still didnt have any cash for a tip, and their system doesn't allow them to add gratuities to card payments. I apologised for not leaving a tip, but the waiters (who spoke very good English) waved away my apology and seemed genuinely pleased that I'd enjoyed my meal. I ate outside on the terrace - it was a pleasure to eat here.
