Once a bookshop, today a
café/bar named Casa do Livro, or Book House. The name was inherited
from the old space and the decoration almost makes us believe we're in an
actual book store.
The Casa do Livro is
at Galerias de Paris, in downtown Oporto. Its décor is a mix
between classic and modern, with well-crafted details such as the chairs lined
with gold and green cloth. The books are a part of the set and they're about to
occupy the walls in the various rooms.
During the afternoon, Casa
do Livro works as a coffee shop, and by night as a bar. A place where
you can relax at the sound of background music, drink a cocktail, a cup of tea,
buy some gourmet products or even see theatre plays and live concerts.
