What to order
The francesinha. Porto’s iconic sandwich layered with cured meats, sausage and steak, covered in melted cheese and rich beer sauce. Add the fried egg on top for the classic version.
Why it’s here
One of the most famous places in Porto for francesinha and consistently recommended by locals and visitors alike. The sauce is what makes this spot stand out.
Tip
Come hungry because portions are huge and served with lots of fries. Expect a queue at peak lunch and dinner times as they don’t take reservations. Located near Bolhão Market and easy to combine with exploring the city centre.
