It's just off the water so if you wish to eat a little more casual than the restaurants along the river. I think the prices are a little elevated because they are in the touristy area along the Douro but I think less than the more formal sit down restaurants in the surrounding area. There's a good chance you'll find something on your list but if you're looking for an item from a specific restaurant then you probably won't find it here.

Great market - in many ways better than the famous Time Out market in Lisbon!…read more Although this was smaller, we found some delicious eats here. Plus it seemed like off the beaten path, and we could dine in peace without queuing for everything. I recommend: - Leito / suckling pig. Amazing here. Not the best we've had, but pretty good. Go for the plate instead of the sandwich, to get the big slabs of pig instead of it all shredded up. - Roasted big portobello mushrooms, from the stall in the middle that does lots of pincho style dishes. Amazing! Topped with lots of cheese, ham, and other goodies. - Poke stall (next to the seafood stall). Not the best poke I've ever had, but try octopus and prawn poke, which is quite unique. Don't go for couscous base though, it was very dry. Things that were meh: - Seafood stall. We had clams from here. Not impressed.

An outstanding food court in a former market in Porto…read more Half traditional Portuguese items. Half international fare. Easily about forty stands ... so if you can't find something to eat, Something is wrong with you. * * * One difference between food stands in the U.S. and food stands in Portugal. The average better-than-a-neighborhood joint restaurant in Portugal is much better than the average better-than-a-neighborhood joint restaurant in the U.S. Many food trucks in the U.S. are majorly competitive with brick and mortar places. That is not so true in Portugal. This is particularly the case because the range of dishes in traditional Portuguese cuisine is actually relatively small. So the top places have been perfecting the classics until the house version is ... well ... perfect. * * * In this aspect, the relationship between food stands and serious restaurants in Portugal is very similar to the relationship between food hawkers and serious restaurants in Singapore. For all of the hype and talk about Singapore food hawkers, There are almost always better versions of Singapore food hawker food in actual genuine Singapore restaurants. * * * That said, Portuguese food is good just as Singapore food is good. There is good stuff to be had at the Mercado Bom Successo. If you want to have a lot of fun, and you like to have a lot of choice, You can do worse than to come here.

Now *this* was a real year-round farmers market, not a touristy food market pretending to be one. I…read morewas extremely jealous of people living in Porto, having access to such great fresh food of absolutely every sort, from dozens of different vendors. There's a large section for produce, which all looked fantastic, and I would absolutely be shopping from frequently if I didn't live thousands of miles away (though one vendor in that section also sold a bunch of different fresh-squeezed juice mixes by the glass as well as selling the fruit itself, for *way* cheaper than you'd find in the US, which went wonderfully with our food), then a separate large section for the more touristy packaged foods such as chocolates/candies, olive oils, hot sauces, tinned fish, etc. Those were definitely more tourist-priced, some of them felt quite overpriced, but some were also more reasonable. I did buy packaged food items from several vendors while I was there. (Honestly, I wish I'd brought back more different Portuguese tinned fish than I did. I did also love the hot sauce made with local aguardiente, that turned out to be just 100% high-proof aguardiente, infused with extra-spicy local peppers. Absolutely not complaining! Just funny, since US liquor laws would absolutely had something to say about them selling that product at a market like this.) Then, around the edges of the inside of the building, where they have full access to utilities and water and such, are quite a number of vendors for food for immediate consumption, as well as a number of fresh seafood/butcher shops. Obviously they varied wildly in both price and quality (one packaged sushi spot looked delicious, but was *quite* expensive, so we didn't try any; one of the two sandwich shops we got little sandwiches from, was *much* better than the other one), and mostly slightly more tourist-priced than the produce, but overall, pretty reasonable. I don't know how frequently vendors rotate in and out, but we had, possibly non-exhaustively (I didn't write everything down), a couple little sandwiches with great locally cured/smoked sandwich meat from one of the butcher shops, some great fancy grilled cheese (not the sandwich - cheese that had been grilled), obviously some tinned fish (samples, not purchased), and some truly wonderful empanadas (most notably, one made with wild boar!) We also took home some of the pre-packaged cured/smoked sandwich meat from one of the butchers, which I wish I had left with more of, as well (though we basically used up all our weight limit for the flight home, mostly on bottles of Port.) Definitely look around before buying anything for immediate consumption, though, as some places were a lot pricier than others, and there is definitely competition in a lot of product categories. Upstairs, they also have vendors selling non-food products, but we didn't shop there. We were here for the food! Also notably, unlike some similar markets we visited on our Iberian vacation, it also absolutely has more than *enough space* for the number of vendors and the number of visitors it gets, so it didn't feel cramped at any point, even though it was definitely well attended. Definitely recommended.

It's definitely a nice option if you're hungry…read more But there are a number of places you can go to for souvenirs, olive oil, oil, sardines, and so forth. I did notice that there are a number of food tours going through this space. So it does have a level of that touristy feel. It's definitely worth visiting, but it's not very big and compared to other markets. I've been to in different countries. This one didn't quite compared to some of those.

The market is broken up into different areas. As I love seafood, this section was my favorite. There were tanks full of octopus and squid, and lots of varieties of fresh fish, and frozen seafood.
