Founded in the distant nineteenth century, specifically in 1877, the Great Warehouses of Beira began their activity in Rua de Santa Catarina as a store selling fabrics. Today, its doors are open to the public at a different address at Rua de 31 de Janeiro. In this establishment, with a tradition of over 140 years, you can nowadays buy products of a very different nature from those initially sold in the Department Stores, such as puzzles, postcards, souvenirs and handicrafts of Portuguese production, allowing you a short trip through culture of our country.

The owners of Padaria Pardal assure that the best ‘regueifa’ (wheat bread, generally braided) of Porto is made by them, every Sunday. But besides bread, this establishment, whose origins are linked to the city of Amarante, also bakes Conventual and traditional sweets: “Toucinho do Céu” (a kind of cake made with pearl sugar to which ground almonds are added, sometimes gila jam and, finally, a large portion of egg yolks), “Babão” (a special cake made with many eggs and much sugar), “Pudim do Santo” (special kind of pudding, made with eggs, butter and sugar), and even biscuit cake “just like the one mother used to make”. There are plenty of reasons to visit this bakery and pastry shop. Casa Pardal is proud of its motto: “Made with the heart, delivered in hand” – which reflects the attention with which they receive each client and the demand upon the choice of the best raw materials.
