CA Downtown

📍 Praça de Carlos Alberto 89

If you’re into brunch and matcha, CA Downtown is a rare Porto spot that actually leans hard on both.

At CA Downtown the matcha isn’t just ‘oh, we have a green drink’ — it’s part of the identity. Toggle between a hot or iced Matcha Latte (yes, it’s real A1 Ceremonial Japanese matcha), or go all-in and ask for the frozen Match Slushie. Pair it with something like the Crème Brûlée French toast or their grilled cheese and pulled beef sando, and you’ve got brunch that looks good AND tastes good.

Say Cheesecake & Co.

📍 Rua do Almada 21

On Rua do Almada, tucked just a few minutes from the Clérigos, Say Cheesecake & Co. is the kind of brunch spot where you go because the cheesecake is the star—and the brunch is a very good supporting act. Grab a slice of pistachio or the burnt-Basque style cheesecake (yes, they rotate flavours regularly) and then settle into a brunch of shakshuka or eggs Benedict on house-fermented brioche.

HAKKO

📍Rua do Rosário 313

If you like your breakfast in Porto served with a side of calm and cool, HAKKO is the spot. Minimalist, Japanese-Scandi interiors set the mood, but the food holds its own—think fluffy pancakes, granola bowls that look straight off a wellness influencer’s feed, and perfectly poached eggs on sourdough. The matcha here is legit (finally!), whether you’re sipping it hot or iced. It’s the kind of place where everything feels quietly intentional—from the menu to the mellow playlist—and you walk out feeling a little more put together than when you came in.

Rosi Café

📍Rua do Rosário 281

If you’re after brunch in Porto that feels fresh and a little unexpected, Rosi Café is a solid bet. This café is run by a Ukrainian couple who’ve brought in a few Eastern European flavours to the Portuguese brunch scene. The syrnyky pancakes are something you won’t see everywhere here, and the coffee-and-matcha options mean this place isn’t just about pretty plates. If you go, grab a seat in the little garden out back (weather permitting), order something you’ve never tried. 

Eleven Lab Concept

📍Rua José Falcão 144 

Eleven Lab Concept gives you brunch and a mini-retail-vibe in one. Head to their downtown spot  and you’ll find the brunch classics—smoothie bowls, eggs Benedict, toasts—with the twist of an integrated concept store underneath. Grab your brunch, then browse the fashion racks, and chill in a space that doesn’t feel like your usual café. If you want a brunch that’s stylish without being pretentious, this is the one.

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.

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.

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.”

EARLY Cedofeita

📍 Rua dos Bragas 351 

This one’s for the relaxed, “let’s brunch and never leave this table” type of morning. Early turned an old bookshop into a comfy café where brunch is about taking your time. They work with seasonal, artisanal bread, specialty coffee, and menus that change. If you prefer brunch at a slower pace but still want to go somewhere with character, Early is a must visit. 

Soma Café & Cozinha

📍Rua Adolfo Casais Monteiro, 71

This newer spot (opened around August 2024) is doing brunch with a twist—and a global flavour. Located by the gardens of Palácio de Cristal, Soma blends café + kitchen in a way that keeps things interesting.

They’re serving creative plates like moqueca-inspired eggs and a katsu sando, plus strong specialty coffee. Very much more than just eggs on toast—it’s brunch with personality. If you’re in the mood to try something a little different in Porto, this spot should be on your list.

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.
