The 10 Best Breakfast Spots In Porto
Let’s be honest: nothing kicks off a day in Porto better than a proper breakfast.

Thankfully, Porto’s breakfast scene has stepped up in a big way. Whether you’re after poached eggs and smoothie bowls or something vegan, grainy, and Insta-friendly, Porto has a café scene that can rival the best of them.
If you’re typing “breakfast Porto” into Google right now because you’re hungry and slightly lost, don’t stress.
Here’s where to find the most delicious spots for breakfast in Porto.
Floresta Café by Hungry biker
📍Rua das flores 148
Hidden in plain sight on the ever-busy Rua das Flores, Floresta Café is the kind of brunch spot that feels like a little escape from the city buzz. Their brunch menus are generous—think scrambled eggs, grilled sausage, roasted tomatoes, and yoghurt with granola—all for a fair price.
Vegetarian or just avo-obsessed? They’ve got you covered with options like the “Strawberry Fields” toast, blending cream cheese, strawberries, and avocado. And if you’re nursing a hangover, the waffle with bacon, fried egg might just be your new best friend. No reservations here, so come early or be ready to wait—but trust me, it’s worth it.
DOM Specialty Coffee & Brunch
📍Rua da Boavista 469
DOM is the kind of brunch spot you’ll wish you’d found sooner. With modern Belarusian dishes leading the menu—yes, you read that right—it’s a delicious change of pace from the usual brunch menu. Think pillowy syrniki pancakes, hearty brunch plates, borscht (only served on Fridays) and top-tier specialty coffee to go with it. The interior’s warm and minimalist, the staff are genuinely lovely, and yes, your dog is absolutely welcome too. Ideal for a slow weekend start or a midweek brunch reset.
NOLA All-Day Café
📍 Rua do Bolhão 124 | Praça D. Filipa de Lencastre 25
Plant-based brunch lovers, assemble. Nola Kitchen has been doing the good food/good mood thing long before it became a Pinterest board cliché. Their menu is mostly organic, the flavours are punchy, and they’re not afraid to pile your plate with greens first thing in the morning. From vegan sourdough waffles to green eggs, corn pancakes and bowls stacked with roasted veg, fermented things and protein-rich grains, Nola proves healthy doesn’t have to be code for “sad and beige.”
Comfort Cakes Porto
📍Rua Antero de Quental 260
Tucked away in the Lapa neighborhood, Comfort Cakes is a sweet sanctuary that feels like stepping into your childhood dream bakery.
This pastel toned café does brunch with soul. I’m talking handmade quiches, silky scrambled eggs, and warm bread baskets that feel like they were baked just for you. The housemade jams are worth the visit alone. And let’s not forget the bolos afetivos.
Weekends are the best time to come (and when the full brunch menu is available), especially if you’re lucky enough to snag a table in the back garden.
Época Café
📍Rua do Rosário 22
Época cafe is the spot when you want brunch that feels both comforting and virtuous. The menu is small but mighty—built around organic, vegetarian ingredients that change with the seasons. You’ll find things like poached eggs with house-made pickles, slow-fermented sourdough, seasonal greens, and dreamy oat lattes that somehow make you feel like you’ve got your life together.
Negra Café
📍Rua de Sá da Bandeira 673, Baixa
📍Rua de 5 Outubro 93, Boavista
📍Rua Sousa Aroso 193, Matosinhos
Negra Café has quietly carved out cult status among locals and long time expats alike. It’s the kind of place you discover once, then insist on bringing every out-of-town visitor to.
They’ve got all the brunch favourites (yes, those pancakes do live up to the hype), but where Negra really shines is in the details: sourdough toast with perfectly poached eggs, generous spreads of cream cheese, avocado, or smoked salmon, and cakes that are always baked fresh that morning.
