Bars near Maia

“I was here with my husband and my two kids. They recommended us so well specially with the amount of food. We ordered robalo rice and the bacalao a braga. Everything was so delicious! We ended up with two different mousse, Oreo and chocolate. They were so tasty. Amazing price as well. This was our second time here and we definitely will go again!“

“Specialist in bifanas...pregos and related...Fast and super friendly services... Two thumbs up to the employees who, on a hot day of 37 degrees, worked with sympathy and kindness......a note out of tune...the infernal heat inside the premises... I understand that they were dealing of some special days but only a small portable air conditioner in the interior room is not enough....it was not comfortable.. I will repeat it anyway... Preferably on a "cool" day...“

“(Translated by Google) Good service, good products, the pastry could have more variety. One criticism after having breakfast, having to go to the bread queue for payment, which sometimes takes a long time, due to customers having multiple orders.(Original)Bom atendimento, produtos bons, a pastelaria podia ter mais variedade. Uma critica depois de tomar o pequeno almoço, ter que ir para a fila do pão, para pagamento, que por vezes demora muito, devido aos clientes terem vários pedidos.“

“Very pleasant place to have an aperitif with the late afternoon sun on the terrace. The interior is very welcoming and original. We liked the vinho verde, but beer was very popular on the terrace. Nice neighborhood place where you don't feel too many tourists (even if we were!). Great!!!“

“Porto Weekend 10/08/24: what a great bar! Lots of craft beer/craft ale choice, both on tap and bottles & cans in the fridge. Very friendly, knowledgeable service, which came with recommendations for an amber/red ale request. We had the Fermentage Brewery: Underrated Steps Czech amber lager 5%, Hoppy Road x Totenhopfen Brewery: Kharon Verbena red currant sour 6.4% and White Dog Brewery: chocolate imperial pastry stout 10.5%“

“It was a magical moment, honestly, the building is splendid, the same inside.

The cocktails enhance the charm of this bar because they are delicious.

The prices remain very affordable, honestly if you are staying in Porto go there.“

“Superbe bar à whisky. Eddie est un passionné de whisky et je le remercie pour toutes ses explications et le temps qu'il nous a accordé.
Très large choix de whisky pour tous les goûts avec notamment des produits d'exceptions. Heureusement qu'il existe encore des endroits comme celui là tenu par des passionnés pour nous faire passer de belles soirées.
Je recommande plus que vivement.
Merci pour tout Eddie.“

“The only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is the price... we are eating good meat, but it is still too expensive for what it is.

However, the food is good, the space is different and very pleasant and the service is also very good.

For those who like good meat and don't look at the price, this is a very good restaurant :)

Vegetarian options: Restaurant for those who like meat :)

Dietary restrictions: If you ask, they will definitely help

Parking: Street parking but not easy

Kid-friendliness: Yes, you can go with family

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, there is an elevator and ramps“

“This place has one of the best views of Porto. You can see the Ponte Luis I bridge, and the cable car runs right next to it—it’s a perfect place to take photos. My favorite person and I ordered a jar of sangria, and although it was a premade drink, I thought it tasted great. The space and layout were well used, and the decor and setup were charming. I would definitely go back here at night for a drink again.“

“One of the most memorable experiences I have had in a restaurant, in any country. The server was super nice and very patient with us. The food and other dishes were excellent. We had a full menu in a quiet and pretty setting, even late in the afternoon. For everything we had, the menu only cost us €10. A very nice experience. We even got bread, and my sister asked for coffee, which was not charged extra.“

“From the super complete menu, both in drinks and food, to the tasteful space, to the premium location in the best area of ​​Gaia. But what really stands out is the service, both from the manager and the rest of the staff.
In short, it's the best beach bar I know.“

“The cachacaria is wonderful!! Large space, and wonderful service, who served us was Marcelo, who made a point of explaining each drink!! I highly recommend a coffee!! And the cheese roll is delicious!!! The price for the drinks I found affordable!! Ask for a taste of Jambú cachaça!! It's really worth getting to know!!“

“Super quiet space, the food is very good and the best part is that you can't miss a cold beer and there is something for all tastes, sour, black, sweet, white and various types of ciders. A great place to spend a good afternoon with ambient music for all tastes. I recommend“

“It was well worth diverting my trip just to have lunch here as I would say it's the best restaurant I've been to in Porto. The service and location are impeccable but what shines is the food, as it should be. We ate croquette, carrot, beetroot and tartar and everything was surprising, delicious, subtle with each flavor just right, and that is a mastery that few achieve.“

“Great music, great beer, great staff, what more could you want!

Nice covered outdoor area, lots of seating. Amazing beer selection with beers from Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Nordics, UK. Brilliant!

Really enjoyed the unusual cucumber beer.“

“Amazing local spot with super vibe. Bossman and his crew are top notch lads. Drinks and food are quality and served with heart. We had steak sandwich and few drinks , everything was class. Highly recommended and will definitely be coming back next time.“

“Obsessed!! It's amazing. Hands down my favorite bar is Portugal!! ? Fernando, Pedro and the whole crew working with him tonight went above and beyond to show us and teach us about anything and everything possible while this place is maxed capacity!!! So impressed and will definitely be recomending this place to everyone!“

“Excellent little place for dinner in the evening, very nice charcuterie/cheese platters and we recommend the tapas to share and the flambé chorizo: a delight!

Thank you for the welcome and well done to the team, we will come back!

The Frenchies“

“Local experience with a Portuguese neighborhood vibe. Here, no English or French so ordering is risky but everything is very good and at a low price, 33 cl beer at €1.2 a pleasure. Dish of the day and sardines as well as very good local donuts“

“Super friendly staff, Caio and Andressa, wonderful food, the first time I ate francesinha and I don't want to try it anywhere else, the chocolate ice cream with pistachio dessert was the best I've ever had in my life! Very good, I highly recommend it.“

“Espaço 77 is my favorite haunt for coxinha and a cold beer. I’ve tried other salgados there - not bad, but nothing beats that big coxinha. Last time, they even served me a shot that went down in flames - literally ??

The atmosphere? Lively and loud, just how I like it. The staff? Friendly and funny. And the cost? No need to stress, it’s budget-friendly. ?“

“Small tapas bar that I recommend. Too bad it's not very visible, the welcome is excellent. We were there twice in the evening, fast service. Franscesina, chorizo, risois, white sangria, like red everything is excellent and cheaper than elsewhere.“

“Dope, incredible, amazing, wonderful and everything u could say about something so fantastic. In my first experience in Porto I’ll definitely comeback to drink and chill in Base.
The service isn’t that bad but they should be more attentive to public.“

“Stumbled on this place. Wow! Authentic and ridiculous value for money. There's a meal here called Rocket dish. Thought it would be a salad. Turned out to be the best pork dish money can buy at €3. Bar man is a legend too. Didn't stop and gave us top advice on each dish.“

“I discovered this place thanks to a video app, and I am extremely grateful. It is hidden, but it is worth going up the stairs… the view from the terrace is exceptional. And I enjoyed one of the best sunsets in Porto, along with a good wine, and good music. It is worth highlighting the attention of its staff. Thank you so much!“

“All opinions here are personal, therefore... Great bar, excellent place with good people, great service. It's worth experiencing. Remembering that it is a bar and sometimes crowded, things can sometimes take a while, but it is worth the experience.“

“Very accepting and welcoming and an absolute vibe. I don’t have much need to say how wonderful this bar is the space is a little cramped but I still enjoyed it very much. If you’re looking for a fun time with fun people and happy legends this is the right spot. Drinks are not too expensive but they are a little higher than usual. But you pay for what want. They had drag queens come in and liven up the party. I had a Porto tonic for the first time. It was ok not the most amazing drink I’ve ever had honestly. But it was worth a try.“

“Probably one of the best steak houses I have ever been to in Portugal. It’s just the service the welcome drink , the atmosphere, the flavour of the food, the different interpretations of classic dishes the smiles, the music! I can keep going EAT HERE AND GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY !“

“Went there with a family of 6, 2 adults and 4 children (5;4;2;2) were warmly welcomed and had the feeling of being welcome the whole time!!! Although it was a little louder or chaotic at times. The food was very tasty and the price-performance ratio was right!

Thank you for the lovely stay“

“Curious place due to its location (similar to an industrial warehouse) and decoration (classic). We did not eat. As a cocktail, quite normal, nothing out of this world. Peculiar. They should solve a certain problem with the ventilation because sometimes a sewer or similar smell came through the air.“

“On August 6 we met the restaurant Brasão Aliados, it was our first time there, we arrived at the restaurant without having reserved, they welcomed us directly with a smile and accompanied us to our table.
We ordered 2 cocktails as well as 2 drinks, 2 francesinhas, a portion of fries and starters. It came to us at €59, it wasn't expensive at all and the wait wasn't long.
The waiter Augusto was very cheerful and pleasant, we felt very professional on his part with a desire to do his job well. A very good person, thank you for serving us so well and for your kindness.
We had a great time in the restaurant.
We will not hesitate to come back, 100% recommended place.“

“This store is a solid 10/10! The food is great, as is the service. We ordered a burger without onions, got one with it, it was no problem at all when we asked the boss about it. He took care of it straight away and got a new one
Have burgers made. Afterwards there was dessert on the house! Thank you for this great experience“

“The cod bolinho and the pork risol (croquettes) are highly recommended, quite large and filling. We also tried the puppy (little dog) and the tower of garlic prawns, with a very good sauce for dipping bread.
Evellin treated us with great kindness and sympathy, thank you very much for everything.“

“A pleasant little restaurant with homemade food. The portions are very generous, starting with the delicious soup, after which I could hardly eat anything else. The main meal, also delicious, with salad - one portion is enough for two people.
The oft-mentioned criticism about charging for bread and butter should be clarified. In many restaurants, in addition to the order, they will bring you a couver-le couvert, so that, if the guest is really hungry, they can satisfy their hunger until the order is brought.
If you politely refuse at the beginning, the envelope will be removed from the table, if you do not, you will be charged even if it is not opened.“

“What a beautiful address! Careful decoration and furniture, both warm and sober, special mention for the covered terrace at the back. A perfect Brazilian soundtrack. Warm and attentive staff and welcome. And finally a cuisine that revisits classics with delicacy and freshness. The portions of the main dishes are VERY generous, and the final value for money is excellent. In short, enjoy!“

“Friendliness and relaxation. Snacks

Parking: Very good bread.
It has a closed room and a terrace. Next to the beach.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible and with appropriate toilet.“

“I am staying in a hostel nearby. I passed by this local bar by chance on a Friday night. I went in for some quick bites and some beers. The bifana and chicken wings were deliciously and completely blew my expectations away. The server was sweet, and the owner was amazing. He was in the bar socializing the whole night. He offered some treats and constantly checked up on everyone. The bar got packed with locals later in the evening, and the atmosphere was incredible.“

“(Translated by Google) TOP !!! I loved it, you can eat very well, the sisha is top and the drinks are amazing I advise you to go there !!!I LOVE IT !!!(Original)TOP !!! Adorei, come-se muito bem, a sisha é top e as bebidas sao uma maravilha aconselho a irem lá !!!ADOROOO !!!“

“Originally we went to Brasão Aliados, but we didn't have a reservation and it was full. However Brasão arranged for us to have a driver, Sérgio, to transport us to Brasão Antas. Sérgio was amazing, very friendly and attentive. We got a spot on the second-floor terrace, which was nice for a summer evening. We all had Francesinha which is a classic of Brasão, and I highly recommend. After our meal, Sérgio was ready to take us back to Aliados.
I can definitely recommend trying out Brasão (any of them) for a good meal with friends in a chill atmosphere.“

“The Saloon is the best bar!

A special service with people who are marked forever. In addition to the space being super pleasant, they always have ways of capturing people. Whether with the spaces dedicated to them, or with the various gifts.

The food, especially the burger, is the best there is.

Once a saloon… it becomes the usual meeting point“

“We went to the bar last Saturday, and had very good service.To eat, we ordered a mixed board, and it was delivered to us very well prepared.We knew that the house's strong point was cocktails, however there is a small selection of wines.Close to João de Deus metro station.We will definitely return soon.“

“"A little restaurant where you eat like at grandma's" ... that's how it was sold to me! In short, a small place with a family kitchen and which deserves to be known!We are not going to lie to each other but with our requirements of Westerners or Parisian bobo, we would not have gone there! And it is a mistake because in addition to a very low price as well as generous and good dishes, the service was available and pleasant!And on the atmosphere, I loved it, a room in its own juice that reminded me of when I went to see my grandma... change of scenery guaranteed!In short, it's good, it's not expensive and you're sure to eat like locals! Far from sanitized atmospheres, if you want authenticity, it's here!“

“Very good restaurant with great service and attention. The food is very good, and the portions are great to share. They have a great assortment of drinks from the bar and an amazing homemade dessert selection. It is a great place that we will for sure repeat.

Vegetarian options: They have a great assortment of Salads and other meals vegetarian friendly.“

“The Texan atmosphere is perfect. We met the owners briefly while exploring the city. Then the bar opened up to me and I had to take a look. We started talking and the owner told us that he lived in Germany (we come from there) and of course the sympathy increased a bit. We promised we would come back. Later in the evening there was a 4th of July party (Independence day). When we arrived there we were warmly welcomed and not only that, there was also wonderful live music and the service was great. I would recommend everyone to visit the bar's Instagram account where you can get a better impression of the performances and the ambience. If we visit Porto again we will definitely come back.“

“Very nice atmosphere when you sit outside and watch the street. The waitress was also really nice and spoke English fluently. A cerveza is 1,30€ which is priced very affordably considering the location. The food is also reasonably priced and ranges from tapas and toasts to Pizza :)“

“This place is exactly what you need if you want to enjoy a great sangria (also non-alcoholic option available). The staff here is very nice and attentive, they speak good English and are super friendly with everyone.
In fact, I was surprised to find here someone who actually knows what they are doing while working behind the bar. The guy over there knows a lot about wines (good and certified information) and could easily recommend you what to drink based on your preferences or the dish you are serving.
P.S. You can ask him for recommendations of nice places to visit or things to do in Porto.
P.P.S. Give that man a raise and to the girls as well!“

“4.4/5*

The francesinhas had a thick and tender sirloin steak inside, being cooked nicely rare. They also had the expected ham and chorizo, both being smokey, salty and fatty. The cheese on top was thick and bold in flavour, like an aged cheddar. These francesinhas differ from others as they possess thicker ingredients. They paired gorgeously with the iconic, rich, spicy-tomato, beer-port wine- francesinhas sauce, which was done in a dominant-tomato-savoury style. We don’t particularly prefer this version of the sauce over the usual tangy, more beer-port influenced sauces. The bread utilised in these francesinhas was fresh and circular with a slight crust and soft interior.

The prego sandwiches, too, utilised rare sirloin steaks which were generous in their thickness. The bread used was fluffy, soft and fresh. The sauce on the sandwich had a beautiful garlic-mustard flavour, which further accentuated the beautiful flavour in the rarity of the steak.

The bacalhau cappachio was amazing, fresh and full of salty yet fresh-cod flavour. Paired with parsley, onion and a very light vinegar, the delicate flavour of bacalhau was perfectly presented to the palate.

The wrapped Zucchini-smoked salmon and ricotta was a very unique entree. The smoked salmon took the lead with its beautifully fresh, melting and of course, Smokey taste. The soft zucchini wrapped around the piece, presented itself as a teaser for the softer and creamy ricotta on the interior.“

“(Translated by Google) First time eating a francesinha, excellent!!! We enjoyed ourselves, no tourists ? Excellent establishment, go there(Original)Première fois que nous mangions une francesinha, excellent !!! Nous nous sommes régalés, pas de touristes ? Excellent établissement, allez-y“

“It is located on a street with a great atmosphere, they serve you with kindness, but I didn't think the food was very good. The cod croquettes were X and the puppy, which is a smaller Frenchie, is normal. What I did love was the Portotonic.“
