With a privileged location right in the heart of the city and more than 25 years of existence, Confeitaria Bella Roma stands out for the huge variety of sweet and savory that serves its customers. You can choose Bella Roma for a daybreak for coffee and cream or a small snack. You can also take home a box with your much-lauded miniatures or “húngaros”. In addition to confectionery, you can come to this establishment for a meal, as it offers a wide range of Portuguese traditional cuisine every day, such as classic “tripas à moda do Porto” (Porto-style guts), duck rice, various types of cod or veal steak.

Confeitaria Leblon is already 34 years old but the one we found underwent a refurbishment two years ago. Under new management, it has become more modern, appealing and inviting to enjoy all its wonderful and appetizing confectionery. With a wide variety of locally made products, whether sweet or savory, you can take advantage of the indoor or even outdoor space to enjoy a meal. We are in Porto, and being in Porto, here you can also try the francesinha. In addition, it has casserole steak, pasta varieties, salads, steaks, cod dishes, omelets, some specials and light meals, with hamburgers, alheir and hotdogs.

Initially, the Pão com Manteiga (meaning Bread with Butter) was supposed to be just a cafeteria. It became a restaurant since a student asked if he could have for lunch the food that Zaina, the principal manager and cook, used to cook for her husband and children. That day she didn’t even charge money to the student, who the next day returned with a group of friends. That day she served 10 dishes, the next day she served 20 and today it’s served an average of 200 dishes a day of simple and delicious homemade food. Noteworthy are the traditional Portuguese and Brazilian dishes, but also the famous Brazilian pastries and desserts, such as brigadeiros. It has a nice terrace in which you can enjoy on sunny days.
