FAQs
What time do bars close in Albufeira?
Bars in Albufeira are open until the early hours of the morning, like clubs in the UK. On the strip and in the Old Town, the party is never-ending; you could be out until the sun rises. Most bars in the summer close around 4 am, but they may close earlier in the winter or off-peak season.
How much is a pint of beer in Albufeira?
The beauty of Albufeira is its affordability. Yep, not only are the pints top-tier but you can grab some for around €2-3, which is around half the price of a pint in major UK cities. Best of all, the happy hours make this even cheaper. Cheers to that!
