We found this pub on our last night in Porto and so glad we did! We had the best time here.. when…read morewe first arrived it was packed with soccer fans, glued to the tv cheering for their team!! We grabbed drinks at the bar and kinda waited for a table to open up. By the time the musician for the night set up, we were well on our way. You have to order your drinks at the bar, there were a lot of people available for a quick chat while you waited so that was fun!! The musician that night was so good, he played one banger after the next.. everyone in the bar was singing along and dancing! We ordered several rounds of shots and each time we got something different .. that was fun!! We didn't want to leave .. but some of us had early flights out the next day! If you're visiting Porto .. go check this place out early, this bar is so fun!! They have bar t-shirts & sweatshirts that make the perfect souvenirs!! Cheers until next time!!

This business advertises as a bar, but it also Sells food albeit with a more limited menu. The alcohol menu here is fairly diverse, but heavily weighted towards wine where there are roughly 15 cocktails to choose from and some beer selections as well. While here I ordered their classic margarita, which was well-made and quite tasty. One minor gripe though is that my drink did not have enough ice but considering that I am in wine country and this is Europe beggars can't be choosers right? Also the size/volume was a bit on the light side as well. Having said that this place was ok from a cocktail perspective where the staff was friendly and views of Porto and the Douro river are great. Rating only as a bar I give this place three stars due to the shortcomings listed above. The better bar is down the street at the Irish Co but unfortunately was closed on this day. That would be my prime recommendation followed by a distant second for this place.

The trees boggle my mind and I enjoy sitting here with a beer, a good book, thinking about how the trees are so huge on top of a roof... The 360 degree view is stunning with Torre dos Clérigos on one side, University of Porto, and old buildings on the remainder. Kids, dogs, old and young will enjoy this stop. Don't expect to get an especially warm welcome here. After coming here an endless amount of times, I have yet to receive warmth. Thankfully this place is so cool my ego is quick to recover. :) A must do to grab alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks with a view.

I was so excited to go to Base after doing a ton of research online but as our luck would have it, it poured rain the whole time we were in Porto. They were closed so we didn't get to have a drink here. All of the tables are outdoor so try and hit it on a nice day if you can. Hopefully I can try it someday!
