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.

C'alma Coffee Room★★ Specialty

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.

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.
