I visited Com Cuore during my December 2024 trip to Porto after hearing about a 100% gluten-free…read morecafe, and I was certainly excited to check this place out, it is located a short walk away from São Bento railway station, although it is rather well-hidden, I ended up having to go up a set of steps from where Apple Maps told me the location was to find it - I do think having some sort of sign on the main street could help people find this place and help increase footfall for sure. They do operate on a cash-only model, which is a big negative for me, they direct people to use a nearby ATM. I usually refuse to pay cash, but after making an effort to find this place and spending some time, I decided to bite the bullet. It was unfortunate that they were cash only as this meant I spent less than I would have done if they had card payments - Come on, who doesn't take cards in 2024? The interior is small and fairly cramped, and the door did seem to lock, it didn't feel too welcoming with people struggling to get inside while I was eating my food. The menu was impressive and extensive, and most of it was priced reasonably, I ended up going for a sandwich which had ham, German sausage and cheese - The value was certainly really good, however. I also ordered some fries however, I never received them. I was not charged for them, so it is likely my waiter wasn't paying attention when taking my order. I noticed how the menu also mentioned a charge for cutlery - which seemed bizarre, and I'd love some clarification on this - surely they can't charge you for something to eat your food within a sit-down cafe? I found my sandwich to be quite dry. While the meats were decent, though not exceptional in quality, they would just slide off the bread, which was strange considering how dry the sandwich itself was. 3* - The prices are affordable, and the gluten-free options are extensive. However, the overall food quality is just okay. Combined with issues like the atmosphere inside the cafe and the fact that it's cash-only, I wouldn't be in a hurry to return if I visit Porto again. That said, I wouldn't be against giving it another try either.

I was also grateful for the extensive gluten free options on the menu as a celiac traveler, but was disappointed in the service, atmosphere, and general quality of the food upon my visits.

They apparently also offer gluten free options. I picked a slice of the shiitake mushroom pizza while my husband had the smoked salmon, argula and honey pizza. €5 for two slices. It was delicious! I never would have thought to drizzle honey on my pizza, so I was skeptical when the girl working asked my husband if she could add it on, but oh my gosh it was amazing! The female employee spoke English and was so friendly she offered to help us out with any tips or questions we had about visiting Porto. My husband couldn't stop thinking about that pizza for the rest of our trip and was sad he didn't have the chance to go back. I've since promised that I'd try to recreate the pizza for him at home, but it still probably won't be as memorable as the real thing.

We didn't have a reservation so we were seated downstairs. You don't have a view of the river, and only about 3-4 tables can fit in the downstairs space, but it was a great little spot. The food was delectable. I had the codfish homemade pasta. Wow! You could taste how fresh the pasta was. And the plate is a work of art, truly. We had a green wine that paired perfectly with our meal. All 4 of us loved our meal. My brother also ordered the codfish pasta, my dad and SIL ordered the codfish with cornbread breading and they loved that dish as well. For dessert, we had a pumpkin and cheese dish which actually worked really well together. It was like a pumpkin puree with pieces of cheese. Very unique, but very tasty. We would undoubtedly come back here. It's right along the river so you have a perfect little stroll afterwards.

I'm glad I didn't order them cause the protein did me good for the next 8 hours of walking around the town, but if you're a sweet-breakfast person, definitely get them. I recommend this place if you're shy about trying some of the more local spots and want to ensure the menu is readable. However, if you're more adventurous, try a more authentic breakfast spot.

The staff are friendly here, and the menu selection is great, I had so many choices, and the majority of the menu was suitable for me to eat as a coeliac - in the end, I decided to go for the fish and chips, wanting to try some seafood while in Portugal, and with the sea being right by, I knew something fresh and tasty was coming, although they did have a selection of other dishes which would certainly interest me if I return to Porto. The prices did seem slightly high for Porto, but the portion sizes and quality did make it appear to be much more value for money, the portion sizes were huge, and both I and my guest were unable to finish our meals. The interior is fairly simple, but it is also comfortable. The tables branded with the Portugal flag were an interesting, memorable touch. There is also a small television which was showing sports. I went for the fish and chips, while no one does this dish like the British, this certainly comes close. The individual components of the dish were good: the fish, the batter, the garlic butter and the fries, and it was also served hot. I also tried some of my guest's food, who ordered the chicken, the chicken was also pretty tasty. I did, however, get the feeling that something was missing from both dishes, that final bit of flare that made a good dish a great one. 4* - Overall, my experience here was good - good food and good service and probably the best choice of gluten-free food for coeliacs in Porto.
