When you’re traveling with kids, finding a spot to eat where everyone’s happy can feel like chasing a unicorn. Too fancy, and you’re sweating through the meal hoping your toddler doesn’t throw a fork. Too casual, and the food’s forgettable. That’s why Kestè, a low-key café tucked between Lagos' old town and the beach at Porto de Mós, felt like such a win.

As a parent, I’ve learned that finding a restaurant that ticks all the boxes – great food, kid-friendly, good vibes, and easy parking – can feel like discovering a unicorn. So when we stumbled upon Maxi’s Warung in the laid-back surf village of Vale da Telha, I couldn’t keep it to myself. This is not just another place to eat in the Algarve; it’s an absolute gem for families — especially if you’re exploring Lagos with kids or staying nearby in Lagos, Portugal with toddlers.

If you're anything like me, you're always on the lookout for places that tick all the boxes-somewhere the kids can run wild, where you can sip your coffee in peace, and ideally, where there's actual shade (seriously, why is that so rare in the Algarve?). Well, I think I've found it.

At Kinoah, all breakfast wishes come true - and with a sensational view.
