Several rooms to choose from, and dishes served quickly and good but without any sense of being in a hurry. Adding to the homey atmosphere are at least 2 cats and a dog who keep to themselves but may stop by and say hi. The menu is easy and good. Tapas are big serving sizes so 2 are plenty unless you're really looking to pack it in.

The outdoor patio is covered with a grapevine canopy and filled with fruit trees, and could not be a more inviting spot to soak in the history and charm of Coimbra. We chose the comfy easy chairs and a bottle of rose vinho to take a break from sightseeing and it's was an absolutely perfect way to end our afternoon. If you are looking to get away from the bustling touristic center of Coimbra then cross the river and relax at the Galeria.

Don't skip the Pork a Portuguesa if you're hungry and it's your first visit. The espresso is the best I've had in Portugal, and I've visited over six major cities so far.

The cod had a very strong fishy smell (which means that the cod was old). The potatoes tasted uncooked & were crunchy! I attempted to take 3 bites, but the dish was unedible. When notified the young-looking male server, he became very upset & yelled at me. He said that that was what I ordered & it was my problem I did not like it. When asked to speak to the manager, he laughed & said that he was the manager. Needless to say, one star is still top generous!! Don't ever stop here!!
