Os Primus

Located at Praceta Mário de Sá Carneiro 1, this charming spot has been impressing locals and visitors alike with its commitment to quality and community since the 1980s.

But what truly sets Os Primus apart is its family-like atmosphere, where every guest is treated as one of their own. The owners, Miguel and Elias, have cultivated a welcoming environment that keeps patrons coming back, as reflected in the glowing reviews from satisfied customers.

It’s this spirit of genuine hospitality that makes a visit feel like coming home.

The menu at Os Primus is a delightful showcase of traditional Portuguese cuisine.
