Where to Eat

Francesinha Café

Rua da Alegria 946, 4000-048 Porto

Widely agreed by locals to serve one of the best francesinhas in Porto — and arguably in the world. Rich sauce, top-quality ingredients, and flawless execution make it a must-visit spot.

Tip: Arrive very early to get a table, as it gets extremely busy. Reservations can be attempted but are not always easy to secure.

Where to Eat

Mirandas Kaffe

Rua de Antero de Quental 524, 4200-196 Porto

A relaxed, tavern-style spot with a true local atmosphere, best known for its bold francesinha and exceptionally juicy steak sandwich. With football on TV and a lively vibe, it’s a classic place for an authentic, no-frills meal.

Tip: Bring cash, as it’s typically cash only. Expect a wait at peak times — it’s worth it.

What to Visit

Palácio da Bolsa

R. de Ferreira Borges 11, 4050-253 Porto, Portugal

One of Porto’s most iconic historic buildings, renowned for its opulent rooms and the breathtaking Arab Hall. Formerly the city’s Stock Exchange, it blends neoclassical architecture with richly decorated interiors and is essential for understanding Porto’s commercial heritage.

Tip: Visits are only possible through guided tours and time slots often sell out, so book in advance and don’t miss the Arab Hall. As a local from Porto, this is considered one of the most beautiful buildings in the city — the guided tour is truly worth it for the history and the fascinating details shared, and here’s a curiosity: inside, not everything is what it seems.
