Tuga Copos Bournemouth in Bournemouth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Place smelled very bad. We ended up walking out without having any food

Lovely people and atmosphere ❤️ very good wife and husband running the business and lovely persons serving the tables 😀 thank you for the lovely birthday party 🎈 🎊 see you soon

Super tasty for me , nice cognac, sea food wow

Hearty portions, mainly consisting of meat, seafood and fish. The attention of the waiters was at times hard to get but overall a good experience. Food all came out together and the card machine didn't try and give a suggested tip amount

This place is fantastic good food and staff very friendly.

Excellent place and spectacular food

I loved the establishment it was the first time but I promise to come back

That was a disappointed experience to say at least. First of all, me and my bf we weren’t even greeted from the waitress, while she saw us standing by the door for a while. When we took our seats, the waitress came and she didn’t even bother to explain us the menu since it was the first time going to this restaurant and trying Portuguese food. However, we understood that maybe is the language barrier. Continuing the cod and the rump steak were both very dry and tasteless. The sides chips and rice were cold and stale. Lastly, I wanted to try a dessert so maybe it will save the night but they had only two options..and I went with egg pudding. The worst of them all unfortunately. Again it was not fresh. Very bad experience in total.

Hands down one of the best Portuguese restaurants I've been to. Lovely atmosphere. Amazing food and excellent service. João was taking care of us and everything was excellent. Definitely recommend.

Excellent food at a very good price. Found it to be one of the best places to eat in Boscombe

Excellent food..simple fresh ingredients cooked well Update April 2024: Food is still amazing!

Great authentic food and friendly service from a family run business. Good value for money.

Delicious food! Perfect octopus and great price! Thank you

Top Portuguese food ! Amazing good taste !!!

Don't be put off by the appearance. The food is plentiful and delicious.

Lovely place to go and have a good meal. The food and the drinks were excellent. Service was amazing and friendly . Definitely coming Back .

This is an amazing restaurant with perfect food as well as service I always feel welcome here for me and my family, the food is freshly done served nicely and amazing taste. Is my first choice to celebrate any big or small celebrations. Manager and stuff are very welcoming always happy receive us and polite I highlightly recommend it

I'm a regular customer, I've tried everything and I've never had anything to complain about. The manager is 5 stars and so are the employees! I recommend it 100%

Unfortunately it's not possible to give 0 stars! The food is absolutely tasteless, being Portuguese and having eaten Portuguese food all my life Portuguese this is most certainly not! The staff are incredibly rude, I usually never comment on bad food I simply don't return, but the food was so disappointing that I felt I had to speak up, after speaking to the waiter, a few minutes later the "manager" goes to the table behind and days "what about this tables any complaints" which was an absolute dig at what we had just complained! So we called her over and said what we had said to the waiter instead of just apologising which would have ended the discussion all she said were excuses such as no one else has complained or that's how other like it when I told her she shouldn't say that to customers she rudely said at my age I don't need any advice, which shows absolute ignorance because advice in a business should always be welcome it's then up to the business to take it or not.

The B&B where we were staying recommend Tuga, wow what an absolute gem, the staff were lovely and the food was plentiful and really really tasty, I would definitely recommend to anyone

Very good food and service. I really recommend this restaurant.

Beautiful all round, food, service and good music

Excellent food and wonderful service. 5 star🌟

Delicious food and very nice people

Old little gem in Boscombe. Atmosphere is traditional but sorta run down but the food there is pretty top notch. Octopus salad was great, super fresh, probably the most tender octopus I've had in a restaurant. For mains I had the mixed skewer and it came with some rice/ potatoes/ chips. The skewer was great, steak cooked rare to medium-rare, prawns had a lovely char, vegetables were juicy and the sliced sausage a really nice flavour. Portion sized are large for a regular person - even the octopus salad which is 6.50 AND a starter could definitely be eaten as a main. Only thing which I had minor issues with were the sides to the mains. Potatoes were lovely, fries were on the soggier side unfortunately, rice was very dry. Also had their caramel flan, typically flans don't have a hardened underside so I don't know if it was a mistake or deliberate but it reminded me of a basque cheesecake. Flavour was good but texture could've been improved by straining the flan mixture to remove bubbles. But overall great experience.

Ribs were extremely salty, fries cooked in burned oil, steak ordered as medium rare has been served rare. TV adverts are playing loud in the background makes it all unpleasant experience. Not planning to visit again.

Absolutely loved visiting Tuga Copos,greeted warmly on arrival,friendly and welcoming atmosphere,lovely food,generous servings,as we had a group booking we had sorted out our order before we arrived,but we were able to have drinks while we waited for the rest of our group, we payed for our own meal which was easy,would love to go back again 😀

Really lovely food and excellent service. Everything was delicious. Definitely recommend it!!!

Great "bacalhau na brasa com batatas a murro" and "Carne à Alentejana", but the service is extremely unprofessional. Someone has to teach the lady a few basic manners.

Nice little Portuguese restaurant with friendly and efficient staff. The food portions were large! Only two choices for vegetarian mains. I opted for the vegetable spaghetti dish, which was very nice. The rest of my party are not vegetarian, and they enjoyed the meat and king prawn dishes. Our table was a little too close to the one behind us, which made leaving the table a little tricky for both parties! Very reasonably priced menu.

Great food and lovely people obrigada 😀

Best food I had so far in Bournemouth. Finger licking good.

Best place to eat in Bournemouth. Good Price and quality ⭐️

Incredible service and incredible food!

Great food and service, always delicious.

Lugar agradável e ótimo atendimento.. A comida é de muito boa qualidade..

Absolutely amazing service and food!

Excellent food and very friendly service Need a good matching decoration I will definitely come back

I went to this place because it had decent reviews but now I wonder how is this possible. Summarizing: my daughter and i ended up vomiting all night. The moment I entered the door it felt off, the environment was smelly and extremely warm, then the lady that received us wasn't friendly at all,. The place seems to lack good standards and class and the hygiene could be better. What are those greasy hot plate stands? Why not a towel? Also the chairs need replacing. Very disappointed with this restaurant, it doesn't provide you with a positive Portuguese experience at all, we are so much better than that.

The food is excellent and plentiful, and the staff are very friendly,

Lovely place lovely staff and lovely food also beer is excellent

This is a favourite haunt of mine whenever I venture down to Bournemouth. The food is good, the staff are friendly, they have Portuguese beers, and Portuguese Fire Water for those brave enough. I've often seen plenty of Portuguese families in there which is a good sign as to the calibre of the food, and it feels more like you've been invited into someone's home for dinner rather than gone to a restaurant.

The best. Excellent service, excellent food.

Excelent place. Good food, staff amazing. Love go there.

I love this place because their food is very nice and it reminds me my mom's food.

Bom lugar pra se tomar uma cerveja bem gelada

Muy buena comida portuguesa y excelente atención

The food was excellent. Service with a very friendly and helpful staff, and the food arrived as quickly as it could. Prices are fair - we had bread, starters, mains and loads of guaraná, paying £77 for 3 people. Couldn't fit any more food into ourselves, and left properly satisfied with the experience. Will return when next in the area.

Excellent food, delicious - all our dishes were excellent. Great staff, friendly and welcoming. A wonderful evening.

Lovely restaurant with authentic food and friendly staff! Would recommend to anyone who loves Portuguese food. Main portions are quite large especially after having starters. Perhaps it would be nice to have 2 choices of portions (regular & large) with different prices on the menu :)

What a great food and service! We just love it! Sure when we back to Bournemouth it’s a place to have the best Portuguese food!

Lovely place with really good food and superb service. We had both the steak skewer and the mixed, so nice. I can easily recommend this place.

Comida muito boa e atendimento excepcional!

Great food and service. Staff was very friendly.

Melhor restaurante português em bournemouth boa comida serviço espectacular ....

Os empregados de mesa muito simpaticos mas a comida nao gostamos

100% recommended , the best Portuguese food I've ever eaten. Excellent service just to say thanks. We will back 😊👍

Great authentic Portuguese restaurant

Excellent Restaurant, very friendly staff and delicious food

Great food in big portions. We felt very welcome. Recommended

Amazing food and the BEST Sangria ever!! Thank you Cristina for making our experience so wonderful. We'll be back soon.

Very good. Delicious Portuguese food! Massive portions. Plenty of options. We recommend this place.

2nd time here & still 5 Stars, Great food, Steak, Prawns, & Octopus was Amazing, Nice beer including 0% which is handy at Xmas for drivers, Highly Recommended! :)

Very nice steak but i think you need to be familiar with Portuguese food to fully appreciate

AUTHENTIC!! Great experience, clean place, great atmosphere. BEST service! Both chef and server speak Portuguese.

Not my favourite atmosphere, good to grab a coffee

We ordered beef espetadas and pork stew. The espetada was amazing but I didn't like the pork stew. It was like a boiled pork in a bay leave gravy. The octupus salad was great, it's my favorite and super affordable. I preferred Agua na Boca rest. but unfortunately they have gone.

Staff not recetive not smiling. Good portion of food but the Sangria very small jar. We asked for a starter and same starter came with the main plate but they could tell us because we could choose another starter.

Oh my such lovely food. Huge servings. Amazing service.

If you want to try some Portuguese food, it's definitely a nice place to go.

Fantastic food, I've been twice and had the Madeira beef stew and has been delicious both times. They have these palenta fried things that you can dip in the sauce. Yummy!

Amazing experience food was lovely and service really good.

Wasn't sure what to expect but we are so glad that we stopped. The food was probably the best that we have eaten in a long time for the price. We had octopus, which was so tender that it put a lot of high price restaurants to shame. It had the feeling of a real family restaurant, and with a little imagination, the ambience transported us to warmer shores. Warning. If you only want small portions this isn't the place to come!

非常好，量大实惠，食物有特色，超级喜欢！一定要点葡萄牙Porto三明治牛排！还点了Tapas鸡胗也不错，葡式鸡汤挺好、橄榄油贝壳挺香的。烤鱿鱼和大虾大串。一杯红酒一杯白酒，倒的满满的！

The best place to eat, the staff are very friendly and also the food is really tasty.

Everything was very good, tasty and cooked with soul, the staff did everything quickly and well. Yes the portion size is impressive each of us failed to finish our order even though we tried. In general, if you have a choice of where to go to eat well and you have not tried Portuguese dishes before, you will not regret it.

Food is great with a fair price. Would come here again

Great food . Great service . Great price and friendly. I recommend to anyone thank you .

Amazing first time there super amazing hospitality environment vibes was amazing

Great experience, lovely food, fantastic staff, I do recomend Portuguese food is the best.

Cheap and amazing food. Nice staff

Muy buenas comidas, con buen precio y raciones excelentes! Lo recomiendo!

Amazing place. Portuguese people are always friendly and amazing. Regular customers now

Lovely place not far from the beach. The food is amazing and the staff are really kind and helpful.

Best restaurant in Boscombe! And I've been to them all!

Overall it was good, service and food. The only part was that the staff wasn't aware of some dishes not being available on the day (being sold out). Good portions and fair prices.

Fui hoje e adorei o atendimento, não demorou tanto a chegar a comida, estava morrendo de fome depois de esperar atoa em um outro, recomendo

Absolutely wonderful evening with almost all of my family that are in the UK. Food is the best I have ever eaten since living in the UK. Service absolutely brilliant and a wonderful family run restaurant who make you feel so welcome. Thank you Tuga family see u again soon as this is my favourite place to eat. Xx

I’ve eaten in this restaurant on Sunday the 17th of April and it was amazing. The staff was friendly, the food was delicious and big portions and the price was good. I will visit again.

Mâncare bună și gustoasă, porții pe măsură

Excelente serviço, muito boa comida e atendimento 5☆

Very good restaurant. Nice meat and seafood is very tasty

Very nice people. Amazing food! Portuguese if course!

Great food and atmosphere! Highly recommend for events or big parties!!

A proper Portuguese restaurant. Really did remind me of when I lived there. The staff were friendly and spoke both Portuguese and English. The food was good, reasonably prices qnd came in very generous portions. Couldn't as for more.

Very good authentic Portuguese food, cooked fresh.

Great food good service very generous portions...

DO NOT EAT HERE!!!!! We went here last night for a friends birthday and the service we recieved was absolutely disgusting! The waitresses are extremely rude to women me and my friend were ignored multiple times and when trying to order or talk to the waitresses our partners were spoken to yet we were completely ignored. The food is just as bad as the custom. My partner ordered a beef steak however they brought him pork which was full of fat and gristle and I ordered spaghetti bolognese however the pasta was extremely overcooked and all sat in a pool of brown water! When I asked the staff to change it the waitress grabbed the bowl and proceeded to shout at me in portugese and then said I am too fussy! If I am paying the prices they are asking I expect a certain level of food to be served! Was made to feel extremely uncomfortable for the rest of the night! Do Not Recommend This Resturant And Will Not Be Returning!

Great experience, tasty food, polite staff and good wine, we are going to be back! Highly recommend
