We loved our sea snack when we arrived to this amazing place. Gooseneck barnacles were freshest and everything was delicious. Cold beer worked very well, in spite of it being an unusually cold May day. Staff is very friendly and made us feel super comfortable.
Friendly local bar / cafe. Wonderful food! Very honest prices. Excellent location next to the beach.
This spot was perfect for a quick batch of clams, beers, soup, espresso, and calamari. Total bill was €30. The clams were exquisitely tasty with garlic and butter. Espresso was perfect. Soup was fresh and homemade. You can spend more on this street, but we liked this place. No frills and gets down to business.
definitely the best cafe in the city! the price are cheap, service is perfect. the owner is a very friendly! the food is very tasty
I come here religiously when in Nazaré. It's a great place to grab something to eat and drink and watch the world go by. The food is always fresh and cooked to order. I have a weakness for their clams with garlic and coriander !
Wet and windy and found this restaurant. The food exceeded my expectations. Very tasty. Not expensive, 2 main course with drinks under €35. Would recommend.
This is a late review for Cervejaria Berlim. We visited Nazaré back in June 2022 and came across this restaurant right across the ocean/beach area. I wanted to try the cod (bacalhau) but my husband wanted something else, a burger. So we asked the owner if we could order my plate and sit outside and my husband order his dish at another place and bring it back to eat with me. The owner was very accommodating and said it was fine. The cod (bacalhau) was okay, a bit salty for my taste but good. Fairly big potion for 12 euros at the time. We sat outside in the patio section, ate our lunches and enjoyed the beautiful ocean view of Nazaré!!!
