50 Best Cafes near Alfena

“(Translated by Google) Folks, on Rua São Vicente is Confeitaria Plaza, some of you are talking about Salón Plaza which is on Rua 1° de Maio!(Original)Gente, na rua São Vicente é a confeitaria plaza, alguns de vocês estão a falar do salão plaza que é na rua 1° de maio!“

“Everything was magnificent, the taste of the food was exceptional, the two girls who served us were attentive to everything.
We would definitely repeat.
Just 7 minutes from the river, it's worth the climb!
Thank you for serving us so well!“

“Very nice place! The person who attend us was nice, even in the last 45 min before closing. Thank you! He served us very well, recommended us... Food was delicious and local style, vegetable soup was surprisingly delicious, I also tried an amazing flan / pudding, hand and home made. I would like to repeat to try the main dishes, and we only tried what remains as kind of Portuguese "tapas". Totally recommended.“

“A 10-rated cafeteria. Crispy and delicious toast, top-quality coffee, delicious orange juice and desserts. They treated us very well, we went with 2 dogs and they let us in, they gave them water and treated them great.
A 10 for the site, highly recommended and good price.“

“Coffee is great, but the main guy running the cash register was the nicest man. When trying to learn and speak Portugese, I run into many words I still don't know. This happened when ordering coffee. Instead of dismissing my confusion and just speaking to me in english, he clarified and helped me learn a few more words and phrases while speaking to me in portugese. That's service, and that shows care. Made me feel comfortable.“

“Perfect little Portuguese café for breakfast or a snack in between. The toasts with cheese & tomato or cheese & ham are particularly recommended. Pastel de Nata and the Portuguese chocolate croissant were also outstanding. Extremely friendly owner who provides excellent service!“

“Wow, we had a great breakfast there today. The restaurant is located on a not-so-busy street and that's what's really nice. The interior is harmonious, there was a little jazz playing in the background and the atmosphere was great for our breakfast. The service was very nice and the breakfast was rich and very tasty.
There's no outside area, but that's not a bad thing. I can recommend the restaurant without reservation!“

“Located in one of the city's most trendy neighborhoods - Bonfim - Dona Mira reflects the city's climate of diversity and cultural effervescence. This can be seen as soon as you enter the bar, with the exhibition of photographs of the bar's owners interacting with some of the most important musicians in Brazil. The tribute makes perfect sense since both Carlos and Valéria are renowned producers and singers, respectively.
Here you can find both the comfort to read while drinking a coffee on a rainy afternoon, and the space to share a good wine and some snacks while chatting with friends. At the back of the café there is a terrace where you can make the most of the longest and softest days of the year and, in addition, there is a library. If you didn't bring your book with you to enjoy the moment, no problem, Dona Mira has a library of books to borrow and, even better, there is a small bookstore full of Brazilian editions that are not always easy to find here in Portugal.“

“We drank a perfectly extracted double and a single espresso, clear notes without excess acidity or bitterness, I observed the barista's workflow, super fluid with all the necessary steps to obtain consistently good coffee, we were also very well served by another barista who was very Friendly and even brought water to the table when we finished our coffees, if I lived nearby it would be a cafe to go to every day.“

“This amazing place is highly recommended.
You can pick ingredients from a list to make up your own salad, and it comes out so yummy! Generous portions, tasty food, lovely watresses, it all leaves you happy and smiling.

Vegetarian options: Plenty of ingredients to make up your own salad.“

“Visited for brunch following many recommendations, which were all spot-on. Even though there was a queue when we arrived, we got a table fairly quickly and service was pretty fast. We loved the food (smoked salmon bowl, and waffles with tempura chicken), and the iced teas were also very nice, especially the passion fruit matcha.“

“Really welcoming place, with a small interior decoration that is very relaxing thanks to the sound of the water flowing in the small fountain and the chirping of the birds
We tasted a not bad pastel de Nata (I think it's spelled like that), a slice of good chocolate cake and a portion of very good passion fruit cheesecake + a coke and a ginger ale all for less than 10 euros
Friendly and smiling staff
Highly recommended“

“I visited today with my favorite person for some coffee after lunch. I love Galão in Portugal; drinking it is one of my favorite things. I had noticed this café while walking past the bridge before, so we decided to give it a try today. The prices for our drinks were not touristy at all—considering the location and view, they were very reasonable. The owner (or perhaps the manager) seemed very friendly.“

“We stumbled onto this place while heading to another place for breakfast. Thank goodness we did.
From the moment we walked in until we left, we were surrounded with amazing energy, from everyone that worked there.
The food was amazing, and seemed a little more like home than we’d had since we visited Portugal. Don’t get me wrong, I love to emerge myself in the culture, but a lot of the restaurants in this area seem to serve the same thing as the other restaurants. So when we found this place, that seems to march to a beat of their own drum, we were elated. If you enjoy American type food with a Portugal twist and even some vegetable's, this is the place for you. From the coffee, to the breakfast plates to the desserts, this place was just delicious!!!!
The atmosphere was great as well, so cute and so fun. We didn’t eat outside on the back patio, but next time we will for sure. That area was adorable.

I can’t wait to return to Porto, so we can go back, over and over again. We already decided to stay in this area, so that we can have this place close by.“

“Amazing staff, they take their time to actually explain what the food there is if you don‘t speak portuguese. Really friendly staff. Food (especially breakfast) is wonderful aswell. Server told us that we‘d be coming back and we did! :)

Vegetarian options: Fried spinach pockets are amazing“

“We look for places that are not typical tourist traps, not only because of the price, but also because of the local atmosphere. That turned out to be the case. They are kind, the food is delicious, the coffee is good. The Francesinha was enough until the evening, so filling!“

“I recently visited O Diplomata and had an amazing experience. The pancakes were fluffy, golden brown, and delicious. The cozy, modern atmosphere was perfect for a relaxing meal. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, making sure we were well taken care of. Overall, it was a delightful visit, and I’ll definitely be returning soon.“

“While walking through the streets of Porto I came across this friendly bakery. I had a coffee and ate a croissant with soft egg filling. It was delicious and the service was excellent. A pleasant surprise along the way. And the price was super fair! I recommend!! I will be back“

“The place where the locals eat and drink is therefore familiar, good and cheap, with a beautiful view of the river and the other side. The owner refused to even accept a tip. We ordered three types of food, all of them were huge and delicious.“

“A fantastic place with top Brazilian feijoada.
Good, cheap and well served and they also offer an excellent caipirinha
Lots of friendliness and beauty ?
We will be back

Parking: Street of joy
Good Belgian beer“

“AT CAFÉ HJP THE FOOD IS HOMEMADE AND IS VERY TASTY FROM THE MEAT DISHES, FISH, AND SNACKS. FRANCESIES ETC... MADE BY TWO COOKS, THE SERVICE IS GENERALLY CARRIED OUT ATTENTIVELY, WITH A LEVEL OF SPEED AND EFFICIENCY CARRIED OUT BY ITS EMPLOYEES. IT IS A CAFÉ WHERE A GREAT FRIENDSHIP IS CREATED BETWEEN THE OWNERS AND CUSTOMERS. I RECOMMEND CAFÉ HJP FOR BREAKFASTS, LUNCHES, SNACKS, FISHING OR DINNER WITH GROUPS OF FRIENDS OR WITH FAMILY.“

“A well-known location in the city of Porto, now completely renovated. The staff is friendly, always ready to assist and contribute to a quick service. The quality is excellent, from the ice creams, the francesinhas and the pastries.
I personally have the habit of having breakfast.
I highly recommend“

“We had already passed by the bar a few times and one night we decided to eat there, the bar is very original, the service was very honest and sincere.

When the bar owner told me: “You won’t regret it, the food here is very good.” We had no doubts, the food would be good.

The bread was excellent, the toast was very well made and the omelet was excellent.

Thank you very much!“

“"Wherever you do what you see..." We were looking for where to eat and we saw that it was full of local people. Very good prices and generous portions; basically combined dishes and you can try the francesinha at a good price. Attentive waiters.“

“Because the food is so good, we went twice for breakfast and gelatos. The inside is small but they have wonderful outdoor seating. Rebeca waited on us both days for breakfast, she is a sweet doll. We had smoothies, lemon pancakes, nutella/banana pancakes. Highly recommend a visit or two to this little cafe.“

“I was lucky enough to have breakfast two days only because unfortunately I had breakfast included at the hotel on the last night?
The attention of all the girls is impeccable, the treatment is very friendly.
The food is amazing. We were hesitant about the pumpkin jam and they brought us a small bowl to try. I left my jacket and they took care of it and returned it the next day.

The decoration, music and presentation of the food is great.

I recommend it on your visit to Porto. When I return I will not have breakfast at the hotel ?“

“As a fan of Mercado do Bom Sucesso, I have to say that this Cremosi is without a doubt my favorite option when it comes to desserts. It’s always a pleasure to go back there for an ice cream (the hazelnut one is my favorite) or a crepe! Fantastic service is clearly one of the differentiating factors.“

“4.5/5*

This was a dense and large francesinha, utilising a lot of cheese and with a medium-rare sirloin steak inside. The chorizo inside was Smokey, salty and perfectly spiced. There was also a beautifully creamy, fatty, melting mortadella included in this francesinha. The sauce had the perfect balance of sweetness from the port, spice, creaminess, a savoury tomatoey flavour and a slight bitterness from the beer. The egg on top was ideally runny, the bread was lightly crispy, and the cheese was thick, creamy and deliciously high in cholesterol. The chips on the side were outstanding in combination with the sauce, crispy, salty and ready to be drenched.

The Pasteis de bacalhau were incredibly creamy, made from potato, dried cod fish (bacalhau: a Portuguese delicacy), onion, garlic, olive oil and parsley. The interior was soft like a mashed potato consistency and the exterior has a lightly crusted, hash brown like layer. These croquettes are easy to come by all over Portugal, with both the smallest of restaurants serving them and also the most sophisticated ones. We appreciated the slight nutmeg flavour in this batter.“

“One of the best places to get your daily coffee or breakfast with many options and good prices, the location is good, and the people working there are kindOne of the best places to have your coffee is a great choice, with good prices and a good location, the person who works there is polite and very friendly“

“A fantastic discovery because the restaurant I went to frequently was closed! I am currently a regular customer of this gem. The most homemade food there is and always very well prepared. Service is always friendly and quick. Daily rates from €5.50. Congratulations and continue with the excellent service.“

“We saw great recommendations for this place so we had to come.

The “prego” is perfect! Very tasty meat.
The pica-pau sauce is to die for ?

We also had the little hot dog, I didn’t like it much, maybe the sauce.

Real French fries ☺️
We will return and we want to try the mixed toast.“

“We went here for lunch during our 4 day stay. Excellent place in the city center, I fell in love with their soups and main dishes. The staff was smiling and very nice. The wife never missed a day without their fantastic desserts and I had their delicious yogurt ice cream.“

“The experience was incredible and totally worth it, the atmosphere is super welcoming and cozy. The service, especially from the attendant Júlia, who was super attentive and recommended a wonderful cake ? ✨
I will definitely be back ???“

“Morning train ride leaving Porto
1st place open run at 8:20 for the last meal
I had strawberry field and brunch salmon set.
Cafe latte and espresso with milk
The portions are huge and the brunch set especially goes well with a variety of ingredients.
Friendly and kind. It was great as our last meal in Porto.“

“Walked into this local cafe, had a toastie with olive oil, tomato, and ham which is beyond my expectations. Quality food for the price. My partner had the €6 euro meal which was refreshing and tasty. Also, we were saved from the rain ?️ We’ll come back again ?“

“If you want traditional Portuguese food at affordable prices (compared to the restaurants in the center), it's worth more
Definitely try cod

You should taste the cod fish“

I'm a big fan of Portuguese cuisine, and I was excited to discover thisrestaurant.The restaurant's menu offers a variety of traditional Portuguese dishes, including starters, main courses and desserts. For the main course, I chose the bacalhau à bras, a dish of cod cooked with potatoes, onions and olives. It was a hearty and delicious dish.The service at the Villa Nova restaurant was excellent. The staff was attentive and helpful, and they made our experience a memorable one.The Villa Nova restaurant is located in a charming setting, with traditional Portuguese decoration. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, and it's a great place for a romantic meal or dinner with friends.I had a great time at the Villa Nova restaurant.
