24 Bar

Karaoke on Faro’s overflow street

24 Bar sits at number 24 Rua do Prior, the overflow street that runs parallel to Rua Conselheiro Bívar in Faro’s downtown nightlife corridor. It’s a small, warm live-music and karaoke bar — the older CheSsenta name once hung at this same address, and sources treat it as the same lineage. This is an intimate late-night room rather than a club, the kind of place that fills by feel rather than by scale.

Who you’ll find here

The draw is a genuine mingling crowd of locals and tourists, pulled in by live music, karaoke and happy hours that run late. Being just off the main strip, it catches the overflow when the busier bars fill, and its size makes it sociable — you’re never far from the next conversation or a shared turn at the microphone. It’s a lively meeting spot in the honest, small-bar sense rather than a pickup venue.

Drinks, music and hours

There’s no cover, the drinks menu is extensive, and happy hours sweeten the early evening. Live music and karaoke carry the nights, keeping the room warm and participatory rather than dancefloor-driven. It runs from around 18:00 to roughly 04:00, so it works as both an early stop and a late one on a downtown-Faro crawl.

Practical notes

24 Bar runs on Facebook rather than a website, so check its page for live-music nights. Card payment isn’t confirmed, so it’s wise to carry some cash. It’s easy to fold into a Faro night given its spot on the Rua do Prior overflow strip, steps from the main Conselheiro Bívar corridor. Come for the karaoke, the happy hours and the easy, small-bar sociability rather than a big production.
