View from Terrace

It's a wonderful place for watching the sunset over the city, prices for drinks and snacks are reasonable enough and just grab a cold drink and enjoying the chilled music and watch life float by. I went for the print of beer and peanuts which was a good option to kill time before my 730pm booking for dinner. You can also watch the young locals jump from the bridge from here which does look kinda good fun. They have free WiFi if you want to upload some photos or checkin on yelp....

One of the best views that you can get from the Douro and the Luis I bridge if you're luck to sit outside. Foods and drinks like bar type, so snacks, tapas, entries and burgers; Very few options of wines, spirits and beers. The service is quite slow, so you'll have to be very persistent and patience to ask for the menu and to taken your order, which can take up to 30 min to get to this point, what a pity cause it's a location with great potential.

Louis R throws down on the dance floor like no other, especially in Europe…read more When the DJ spins some EDM in this modern Portuguese club setting, you can can catch Louis R, tearing it up, making local chicks drool and the foreign fellas jealous. Truth. The top-shelf vodka sodas refreshed Louis R, during his interlude in b-boying. The multiple bar areas made it convenient AF. The skinny dudes didn't realize Louis R is a bruiser when they almost set his shirt on fire while smoking (clubs allowing cigarettes these days is archaic). Louis R served those weak punks. Louis R is always in full effect in Portugal clubs. Be like Louis R, yo.

I love the mix of traditional and modern decor here. A dance club/night club with a DJ upstairs in…read morea chill space and two dance areas downstairs, playing different types of EDM, though I did walk in on a live band packing up, so I presume there are other sorts of music as well. I thought the music was good, but wasn't super-inspiring, but a lot of people there seemed to enjoy it a lot. There are plenty of spaces to sit upstairs and plenty of space to dance downstairs. Multiple bars available; I especially like how the main downstairs bar is recessed away from the two dance floors, so that it's not super loud there; easier to order drinks and such. €5 cover charge on a weekend night. Like most bars/clubs there, smoking is permitted. Bathrooms: About normal for a night club. Could be a tad cleaner, but given out late it was, they were pretty decent, and didn't have any lines.

I got the "BADIJA" FROM MOZAMBIQUE (Black-eyed bean and broccoli croquette, roasted pepper and tomato vinaigrette, marinated green beans) and the depth of flavours were unreal. An almost Indian flavour kick with the vinaigrette was such a nice touch. CAULIFLOWER "BRÁS" (Roasted cauliflower, spinach matapa, shoestring potatoes, "hollandaise"). This is dish was huge and so incredibly rich with complex flavours. I never had matapa but this green base was so unique! The hollandaise added a nice touch but the soft cauliflower topped with the crunch potatoes was next level! Service was phenomenal and very attentive. Couldn't recommend this place more!

It is, but a mirage. Don't let the pictures fool you. You…read morehave to have special reservations to get the upstairs seats with windows and view. The regular tourists are in the first two plain floors. Don't come for menu online, the GM has economized. No lamb. This is one lazy tourist stop. All food on the limited menu, while good, is the type they can prepare in advance, with limited labor. No steaks, no lamb, no salads, no fresh vegetables. In their words, not a fine dining place. And not near enough wait staff. Someone is sqeeeeezing the euros here. There is no reason to dine here. There are 100s of places that care more.

Go for the famous "cachorrinhos," aka little sausage sandwiches, stay for the vibe and the rest of…read morethe menu. I'd read about this place online and was glad we went. It's one of those incredibly soulful spots that I feel are, low-key, becoming extinct in big cities, where everything is starting to look homogenized. We queued for about 15 minutes and grabbed seats at the bar. This was with awful weather and before peak tourist season, so I imagine the lines can get quite long. Pro tip: don't head inside just because you see someone leave. I made that mistake and was told to wait for someone to call me over. The people working here have zero sense of urgency, and that's part of the magic. You're in Portugal. Relax. The cachorrinhos were great, but we also had a steak sandwich that was phenomenal. Think greasy street food in a compact, hole-in-the-wall spot. Pair it with a beer and fries, and you've got the perfect lunch. They take cards!

For the last leg of our Spain and Portugal trip, we went to Porto. My friend saw this place on…read moreTikTok and declared we needed to try it. This is the famous "hot dog sandwich" place you've probably seen online. We came here after our visit to the Livraria Lello for dinner on a Saturday night. The line was long and took probably half an hour or maybe longer I lost track. We opted for seats outside on the patio and chilled with some cheap beers and one of the sandwiches to split. We treated it as a snack instead of a real meal but there were other things to order. It was pretty cheap. Porto is full of famous sandwiches and you should definitely try this one if you have the chance!
