Heaven’s Social Club opened, in 1983, as a discotheque and still works as such, keeping faithful to the musical styles it promotes: rock, gothic rock and metal. In 2011, the space was remodelled and it also started to work as a concert hall and as a café bar. With music in the centre of attention, its products also stand out, such as beer, always cold, and the wide variety of cocktails, such as mojitos, caipirinhas and daiquiris of various flavours. Heaven’s Social Club also has a menu with ‘preguinhos’ (beef steak sandwich), Francesinhas (a sandwich from the city of Porto, consisting of sausage, fresh sausage, ham, cold meats and beef steak, covered with cheese later melted; it is garnished with a tomato, beer and piri-piri sauce and can be served with French fries as a side dish), hamburgers, kebabs, among others. Since the beginning the concern is to provide the best conditions for the benefit of customers, hence the constant evolution.

The Casa Pinheiro is a traditional tavern in Porto, over 60 years old, which aims to preserve the customs of this type of houses in the city and preserve the homemade flavours. The appetizers available every day stand out, with focus on codfish fritters, Lamego ham, bucho(stomach of the animal) and boiled ears, among many others, besides traditional Portuguese cuisine day dishes, such as also ‘Tripas à moda do Porto’ (the most representative dish of Porto that dates back to the time of the Portuguese Discoveries is cooked with tripe and fat meat, accompanied with thick slices of dark bread; today instead of bread white beans are used), ‘feijoada à Transmontana’ (bean stew, usually with meat, and almost always accompanied with rice; in Portugal, it is cooked with white beans in the northwest (Minho and Douro Litoral) or red beans in the northeast (Trás-os-Montes), and usually also includes other vegetables (tomatoes, carrots or cabbage) besides pork or beef, to which can be added varied sausages), ‘cabidela’ rice (a stew that uses, during its cooking, the blood – with vinegar – of the animal that is boiled) or codfish à la Braga (cod to pieces, fried; the potatoes and onions that accompany this dish are cut into thin slices and fried in the same oil as the cod, with bay leaf and cloves), just to mention a few. The welcoming and traditional environment invites to experience, to socialise and to share typically Portuguese dishes, with a familiar service and very competitive prices.

Café Lobito is one of the oldest cafés in this area of Porto, having recently undergone a renovation, giving it a modernisation and sophistication adapted to current times. It maintains the authenticity and genuineness it has always had, which translates into a close and familiar service, as well as the maintenance of the offer, based on traditional Portuguese cuisine. At Café Lobito you can choose any of the meals. For breakfast there are several menus available, from toast to a fruit buffet with granola, accompanied by a “galão” (hot drink from Portugal made of espresso and foamed milk. Similar to caffè latte or café au lait, it consists of about one quarter coffee and three quarters foamed milk. It is served in a tall glass) or fruit juice. For the complete meals the choice is not less diversified, having fish dishes, meat dishes, hamburgers, dogs, not forgetting the Francesinha (a sandwich from the city of Porto, consisting of sausage, fresh sausage, ham, cold meats and beef steak, covered with cheese later melted; it is garnished with a tomato, beer and piri-piri sauce and can be served with French fries as a side dish).
