Food scene
Quinta Do Conde is a great Farm to Table experience for anyone visiting PEC who wants a European meal experience. One of the owners is Portuguese like us, and their farm to table dinners would be very similar to what we experienced growing up. You can go on a farm tour, have a meal, or buy some local goods!

Flossies is a great low key Sandwich parlour. Delicious amazing food, a favourite of ours. We first discovered them as a pop-up at a winery, and now they share space with Carson's Garden market. We recommend hitting them up just slightly before or after lunch times, as they can get quite busy! They are also conveniently located across from Domaine Daruis, one of our favourite wineries!

This brewery/restaurant is about a 10 min drive from our loft, and has a wonderful outdoor patio. They serve delicious food, with a Latin flair. During busy season be prepared to wait for a seat, but you can enjoy one of their beers or ciders while waiting (and then take some home from their taproom!)

We love the experience of a drive in. Its fun for families or adults, and safe during these times. They have a small playground on site to keep kids entertained until the movie starts. We recommend bringing some bug spray, camping chairs and blankets to enjoy the movie in all its glory. We have a portable radio that you can bring along with you to play the movie's audio, or use your cars speakers. They sell snacks on site, and movie tickets are $30 per car (for up to 5 people) it's great price too!
