The owner’s name is Eugenia and the history of her café is a “funny” one: she worked in a school nearby, but she did not like working there very much. She took care of the children when they were on their break, but while during school hours her work was more quiet. Bored, but still without another job in sight, she found herself forced to find an escape as an excuse to get out of there. One day, while passing through the street of Bonjardim, she saw a shop that was about to wander and thought she could open a café in that space, betting on her homemade dumplings, something she loved to do. And so Geninha appeared, the name by which she was called at school, where she could share her cakes and snacks.

With a cozy interior space with granite walls, Café Snipe is the ideal place for themselves to “enjoy your breakfast with friends and lunch with your co-workers”.

It has outdoor space, with terrace, to enjoy on sunny days.

Cafetaria do Marquês offers an unpretentious, familiar and welcoming space, mostly attended by regular customers, where you can count on a friendly service. It can be the chosen place to have light meals, complete meals, breakfasts, snacks or even just to have coffee. This way you have a varied offer, from mixed toasts, hotdogs of the house, special hotdog, omelette sandwiches, to, as you should expect, the famous Francesinha (a sandwich from the city of Porto, consisting of sausage, fresh sausage, ham, cold meats and beef steak, covered with cheese later melted; it is garnished with a tomato, beer and piri-piri sauce and can be served with French fries as a side dish). All dishes can be served on a menu with refreshing drinks, as well as lunch menus, with an offer that varies every day of the week. It has a full bar and free Wi-Fi.
