Looking for the best places for a brunch in Porto? Look no further!
Even though the concept of “brunch” arrived late to Portugal, it has come to stay. People fell in love with the meal that combines a late breakfast with lunch. Being a synonym of lazy days without obligations and plenty of time to enjoy food and the company of friends and family, which is why we think you definitely cannot skip brunch in Porto during your vacation (and the same applies to our Porto Food Tours). Without further ado, here’s a list of some of our favorite brunch places in town.
FAVORITE PLACES FOR BRUNCH IN PORTO
1. O Consulado
Right on the street of Cedofeita, O Consulado is a fantastic option for the pancake-lovers and definitely one of the amazing places for brunch in Porto. Serving some of the best pancakes in town, they have tons of different toppings, fruits, and fillings that you can (and should) try, but in the brunch menu, they are served in a very simple way: with only butter or honey. After all, there are four menus, between 6 and 10 euros, and they can also include (besides the pancakes) scrambled eggs with bacon, beans, mushroom, and tomatoes or a bowl of the famous Brazilian fruit açaí. You just have to choose which combination fits your morning mood best. With each menu you enjoy two drinks: a hot one, such as a cappuccino or an americano, and a cold one – we recommend one of their great natural fruit juices.

2. Rosa et Al
Rosa et Al offers another of our favorite brunch in Porto. Located right in the middle of the arts district, there are no pre-combined menus and the egg is the king! You will choose what you want from a huge menu that includes puffy pastries, sweet dough, mini sandwiches, scones, soup, salads, porridge, tartines… and an incredible variety of recipes with eggs, from scrambled or fried to benedict, Arlington, or the classic omelet. We must warn you that choosing will take time since everything is delicious! But the preparation will take time as well since everything is made to the order, so you should enjoy your brunch slowly. The calm and relaxed atmosphere and the beautiful decor will help. Oh, and the sun-drenched garden should also entice you to this magical place for brunch in Porto!
