Maria is vegetarian, Guilherme eats everything. When they opened a food business, they wanted it to be something where the two of them could sit down at the table in a relaxed way and enjoy the meal. From Brazil, they passed through Spain and settled in Porto, where they opened Club Life. This concept was born in Brazil and it is a place of natural and healthy food with one thing in common: the use of fresh ingredients. The menus do not contain refined sugar, gluten, lactose or preservatives. Here too, plastic does not come in. It is the client who assembles his plate, chooses the food over the counter, among the options of protein, hydrates and vegetables. Upstairs there are lighter options, designed for breakfast or snacks.

Best Space – Lounge Bar combines a diverse cultural programme with a selection of delicious snacks. The menu includes snacks, cheese and sausage boards, ice-cream options (including waffles and crepes) and a cafeteria. There is also a wide variety of drinks on offer: wines, whiskies, gins, caipirinhas, cocktails, vodkas, spirits and sparkling wines. At Best Space – Lounge Bar there are often theme nights, with DJs and stand-up comedy or fado shows. The space can be booked for birthdays, stag and hen parties and other events.

At Taparikas – Pecado das Tapas, you will find, as the name implies, a “tapas” (snacks) restaurant, but it is much more than that. It also sells regional products, such as cheese, and has a varied menu, with the specialty being steak or cod loin on hot volcanic stones. With menus suggested by the staff to suit individual tastes, it is worth going to Taparikas for the food but also for the atmosphere. If you choose to share a meal, the choice must fall on the cheese, sausages or salmon boards. The next step will be to dive into the snacks, as we have choices for everyone, like sausages, fish, seafood, vegetables, among others. You can also choose the “francesinha”.
