Increíble! Hemos venido de vacaciones a Oporto durante 3 días y nos encontrábamos en la tesitura de no saber donde ir a desayunar o comer, hasta que encontramos este sitio. Hemos ido a desayunar 2 veces, increíble y a muy buen precio!! 3 sándwiches con pan rústico relleno de pollo empanado, tomate, lechuga, huevo frito y mayonesa y dos cafés con leche nos salió tan solo 10,40€! Además el trato de las chicas que nos atendieron fue impecable, son muy atentas y amables. Hemos ido con nuestra perrita y han sido súper amables con ella también. Sitio pet friendly 100% recomendado para ir y repetir. Saludos desde España! ????????

Acolhimento simpático. É um café local mas, onde servem refeições caseiras diariamente. Bom para comprar pão diariamente. Possui alguma variedade de bolos.
