The Pizza Spot in Faro Worth Lining Up For
O Terceiro Lugar is the definition of an informal local favorite—busy, lively, and completely focused on turning out excellent pizza in Faro. You’ll find it at Praça Alexandre Herculano, about a short walk from central hotels and an easy stop before or after an evening stroll.
The vibe is casual and fun, with indoor seating and a few outdoor tables that are especially appealing on warmer days. It can get crowded, and a queue isn’t unusual, but once you’re seated the kitchen moves quickly. Pizzas often arrive fast and hot, making the wait feel worthwhile the moment you take the first bite.
What makes the pizza stand out is how generously it’s topped—simple, bold flavors done right, with that satisfying “loaded” feel that makes each slice count. Prosciutto is a popular choice, and it travels well if you decide to order takeaway and enjoy it in a nearby park. This is true pizza takeaway territory: easy, unfussy, and perfect for a relaxed night outside.
Expect finger-food energy: pizza cutter on the table, plenty of napkins, and a laid-back approach that keeps the focus on taste rather than formality. Dessert is happily single-minded too—tiramisu is the one option, and it’s a strong finish if you’ve got room. A good coffee rounds out the meal nicely.
One practical note: the restaurant is known for being cash-only, so it’s worth arriving prepared. If you want a table, getting there early helps. For anyone chasing great pizza in Faro with a friendly welcome and an authentic local buzz, O Terceiro Lugar is a must.
