Super authentic Portuguese diner where you can get takeaway or sit down in some rustic tables outside, no frills but honestly some of the best food during a weekend in Langebaan. Fresh seafood , authentic basting on PP prawns and just solid cooking make this a must do in a laid back town that isn’t always known for top restaurants!
It closes pretty early in evenings so remember to get dinner earlier!

The BEST peri - peri prawns that I had in ages. The portion was more than enough for me.
The fish burger was DELICIOUS too.
Good food takes time to make. So be patient but it's well worth the wait.

When it comes to authentic Portuguese cuisine, Café Lisboa in Langebaan, Western Cape, takes the crown. From the moment I stepped foot into this charming restaurant, I knew I was in for a culinary adventure that would leave a lasting impression.
As a lover of seafood, I couldn't resist trying the mussels as an appetizer. To say they were divine would be an understatement. The mussels were plump, succulent, and infused with the perfect balance of flavors.
For the main course, I opted for the chicken and prawn curry, a traditional Portuguese dish known for its aromatic spices and rich flavors. The dish did not disappoint. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the prawns were perfectly cooked, adding a delightful seafood twist to the curry. The blend of spices was impeccable, creating a harmony of flavors that danced on my palate.
Accompanying the main course were the garlic rolls, and they were simply heavenly. Freshly baked and oozing with garlic butter, each bite was a burst of flavor. The rolls were light and fluffy, a perfect complement to the robust curry.
Café Lisboa is a hidden gem that brings a taste of Portugal to Langebaan, Western Cape. From the moment I arrived until the moment I left, every aspect of my dining experience exceeded my expectations. The flavors, the ambiance, and the exceptional service combined to create an unforgettable culinary journey.
If you're in the area and craving an authentic Portuguese feast, do not miss the opportunity to visit Café Lisboa. Be prepared to be transported to the vibrant streets of Lisbon, as you indulge in some of the finest Portuguese cuisine outside of Portugal itself.

Ordered hake and rice - got wrong order of crumbed calamari and rice.
The store was quiet as it was nearly closing when the order was placed - so no excuse for getting a order wrong.
Food was ok not worth the rave - would rather look around the area at other restaurants/ takeaways than being disappointed.
If the store was more attentive and customer focused it would have been a better experience.

The owner is a very good chef and takes pride in making the food himself, I asked him for his recommendation and had the line fish (yellow tail).
It is the best fish and chips that I had in years! I am so grateful for the quality of ingredients and the skill of the chef. Great value! I highly recommend support for this wel run family business' delicious nutritious food.
Ps. The peri-peri sauce and lemon butter sauce is phinnominal

Fantastic food for a good price. Fish burger came with onion rings and hand cut fries. Tables are outside on the walkway. The perfect place for a quick bite.
