Up a flight of stairs in Baixa, this second-floor room is the one Porto's specialty coffee crowd quietly rates above the rest, and it's worth finding on that reputation alone.

A second-floor room that makes Porto's case for specialty coffee, one V60 at a time.

What we love

  • V60 pour-overs get singled out for being clear, bright, and properly balanced, not just brewed to order.
  • Single-origin coffees sit on the menu alongside the espresso, not an afterthought.
  • Visitors who know specialty coffee single out the pour-overs repeatedly.
  • A quiet, laptop-friendly second-floor room with password-protected wifi, built for lingering.

Garcia & Marquez★★ Specialty

A Baixa barbershop-bar-cafe hybrid where staff pour a pour-over and a batch brew from the same beans side by side, then walk you through why the two cups taste different.

My Coffee Porto★★ Specialty

This Baixa terrace draws the brunch crowd for its Douro view, but the filter bar is worth the trip on its own: single origins, brewed properly, not just a backdrop for the food.

Época★★ Specialty

The queue outside this Baixa spot is for the Turkish eggs and sourdough, but the coffee earns its keep too: single origins from rotating specialty roasters abroad, not the commodity fallback most brunch spots settle for.
