Café Ancora D´Ouro has long been affectionately called “Café Piolho”. In fact, no one knows the reason for such a designation, but the theories are many. One of them is that the cafe was frequented by the students of the university, but the teachers also went there and the coexistence was somewhat ceremonious. Then someone started to say that this was a “foolishness”. Opened since 1909, the café is a meeting point for students; it was a mandatory stop for poets, politicians, activists, among others. It is a cafe that is part of Porto’s history, where you can have a drink, snack and dine, even after hours. Try the francesinha or sarrabulho porridge, from a varied offer.

If we talk about Pedro dos Frangos we obviously have to talk about chicken. However, this establishment is known for the chicken closed on a spit, roasted on a brazier, having been the first to coo kit like that in the city. It is also a restaurant known for its offer of traditional Portuguese dishes, namely, “cozido à portuguesa”, “tripas à Moda do Porto”, roasted lamb, “bacalhau à João do Grão”, “rancho”, among others. The origin of the establishment dates back to 1939 as a grazing house. On November 11th, 1961, Pedro da Silva founded the “Casa do Pedro”, a name he owes to its founder, Pedro da Silva. It was in 1978 that the “Casa do Pedro” became “Pedro dos Frangos”, the name by which it is known today.
