Café 18 do Forte - Rio de Janeiro

Best views for a brunch in Rio! Most people who end up at the fort go to Colombo because it's more famous, but they better come here. Not only do you get a spectacular view of the Copacabana beach and the sea, you also get amazing food. You have a complete brunch menu called Cafe do Forte, the savory and sweet elements, as well as a hot drink of choice. Bread, cheese, eggs with bacon, cakes, yogurt and sweet treats make a very good way to actually start the day! We were served by Felipe, a very nice young man who did a great job. Tip for visitors: You need to go to Copacabana Fort, the 6 Renaissance per person costs from June 2022, CASH ONLY. You can avoid the entry fee on Tuesday.

Amazing brunch! I was recommended by a friend to have at the Brunch fortress and I heard from various people that Café 18 has good food. It's true! We ordered the brunch set and it was impressive. It's more than enough for 2 people. You get the variety in bread and cakes and a few savory things. And as everywhere in the fort, the view is fantastic. The service is decent, perhaps a tad unstoppable, but manageable. Very recommend it also try!

Good food, with the best view. Very recommended for solo travelers! As others note, it is within the fort, so you have to pay the small entrance fee bring small bills if you can. The food was a little expensive, but I thought it was worth watching the sunset. Servers were nice and helpful!

Don't laugh: You're at the SAFEST in RIO. Besides the admission at the entrance of the peninsula, it is a military base, so security is more than enough.

WOW. This was phenomenal. The service was a little bit slow but it was worth the wait. The only thing better than the view was the food. The food will have me dreaming after I leave for years to come. I'm going back today because it was that good. Perfect score. This was OUTSTANDING.
