Café Aviz

 In Portuguese and Spanish below




Placed in the heart of town, in a street with its name (Avis Street), Café Aviz é one of the landmarks of our city, not just for its five decades of existence, but also for the renowned francesinhas.
This dish is the highlight of the historical café, since the francesinha that's served here is seen by many as one of the best in the city. This coffee shop offers the possibility to taste this typical meal from Oporto in a calm and comforting on the inside as well as on the outside, in an outdoor space facing the Avis Street, which despite of being in the heart of the city is a secondary street with little circulation.
Café Aviz is also a nice place to have lunch or dinner with some friends. The game room, with pool tables, is one of the contributing factors to an agreeable socialization.
Besides being a restaurant and a coffee shop, Aviz is also a tearoom for what you can enjoy a relaxing moment, followed by a cup of tea on tables that inspire history and tradition.

Aduela


 In Portuguese and Spanish below



Aduela, a tavern launched last december, right across the Carlos Alberto theatre. It's not just a tavern, it's also a restaurant and it stands out for starring the portuguese culture.

There costumer may choose between several kinds of portuguese wines that are served by the glass. Aduela's cellar goes from Amarante's red white wine - which is served on a typical bowl - to Port wine. You won't find any beverages that are not characteristically portuguese, for the nationalist spirit of this tavern goes from the drinks to the food and even the decoration itself.

When it comes to the food service, the specialty passes though ham, sausage and pepperoni sandwiches, and also cheeses, toasts in bread from alentejo, tramontane or loaf. As you can see, typical portuguese products that every portuguese enjoys.

The place was decorated with old furniture, taking us back to a time when taverns were the most common place to grab a bite to eat. The chairs are actually bought in antiques stores.

Aduela is a perfect example of the true portuguese culture, a place which must be seen by international tourists so they can feel the nature of the country they're visiting, but also the portuguese ones, in order for them to feel home, even if theirs is far away.
