To talk about Porto, in addition to Port wine, francesinhas, “Tripas à Moda do Porto” (guts), is also to talk about Futebol Clube do Porto, the most popular club in the city and one of the best known in Europe and in the World. To talk about Braseiro das Antas is also to talk about Futebol Clube do Porto, as it is very close to the old stadium and near the Dragão stadium. It is a meeting point to snack before and after the games and, for those who did not get tickets, during the games. It is here that many fans live the victories of the club, accompanying with bifanas (we are known as “Braseiro House of Bifanas”), as well as Francesinhas and other snacks, always accompanied by cold drinks, preferably beer.

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.

Poveiros Snack Bar Restaurante is the ideal place for a meal, offering options for all tastes. Its specialties are barbecues such as chicken, ribs and picanha; bifanas, in plate or bread; and francesinhas. If you prefer a dish of traditional Portuguese food, your list is also very diverse, such as codfish Braga and codfish Poveiros, another specialty of the house. There are even vegetarian alternatives. You can finish your meal with one of their homemade desserts, such as the much-praised biscuit cake. The service is warm, efficient and helpful.
