Truly Exceptional Vegan Culinary Experience in Porto - Edit
This was, without question, one of the most memorable meals of our trip to Portugal. The fully plant-based Portuguese tasting menu was a masterclass in culinary creativity—each dish thoughtfully crafted with passion, authenticity, and an incredible attention to detail.
Read moreFrom the welcome sip of Ferreira port (one of Portugal’s few Portuguese-owned port houses) to the final bite of their award-winning nata, the entire experience was unforgettable. The four starters—vegan codfish cake, fish açorda, Algarve-style carrots, and mushrooms in coriander and lemon—were beautifully balanced and full of flavor. Fresh bread accompanied these vibrant small plates perfectly.
The main dishes truly impressed: a comforting, balanced seafood rice and a rich, plant-based take on the iconic Francesinha that was nothing short of perfection. For dessert, the layered biscuit cake had lovely hints of coffee, and the airy, whipped “Heavenly Cream” was exactly that—divine. We were also lucky enough to try their vegan nata, and it absolutely lived up to the praise: silky, smooth, and utterly delicious.
Beyond the food, the service was warm and genuinely enthusiastic. The staff took time to explain each dish and share their deep love for Portuguese cuisine, which made the experience feel even more personal and special.
Every course reflected not just technical skill, but deep care and love for both the craft and the culture. I only wish I lived in Porto so I could return again and again. A must-visit for anyone who values food made with heart.
Pros: Authentic Portuguese flavours, Beautifully crafted dishes made with passion, Warm, knowledgeable staff

Dear DMGrant,
Read moreYour words truly touched our whole team! Thank you for such a thoughtful and generous review — it means the world to us to know that our Portuguese vegan tasting menu made such an impression on your trip.
Every detail you mentioned — from the açorda to the heavenly cream — is a tribute to our love for this cuisine and the belief that tradition and plants can go hand in hand. We're so happy you felt the care we put into every dish (and that our vegan nata lived up to its reputation! ).
We’d love to welcome you back anytime — and until then, thank you for sharing such kindness. You're always welcome at our table.
Warm hugs from Porto,
The Padoca team

A place to organise your days around! - Edit
This bakery is amazing! We stopped in originally for some pastel de nata, which were delicious, and were back within a few hours for lunch! We’ve tried several of their savoury and sweet options, all of which have been brilliant, and the folks running it are so kind and generous to talk and explain about all the food! An absolute must if you’re in Porto, and so many options that we’ll go back as often as we can!

What a gem - Edit
Me again for an update:
Read moreI stopped in again for take away of a croissant and a nata, but stayed for breakfast. I had the eggs Benedict and it was truly one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. The bread was perfect and soft, the benedict sauce was delicious, and the vegan egg and protein was mind-blowing.
The staff is extremely kind and helpful. I’d return in a heartbeat and would recommend this place to anyone in Porto!
1st review: Found this bakery accidentally after taking a wrong turn and so glad I did! I stopped for a pastel de nata to go and enjoyed it in the Jardins do Palacio de Cristal.
Perfectly sweet, not burnt, and very flaky.
