Went here for a brunch meal, it was very busy so be prepared to come back later when it quietens down. We had the pancakes and Waffles and everything is gluten free and so delicious! Highly recommend
Very expensive price unjustifiable with the quality of the dishes. Very basic Greek salad, with lettuce leaves without even cutting them and almost without dressing €14.5. The most expensive French toast I've seen in Porto with slices of sirloin that were too thick and tough. The bland cod cakes. The Caldo verde was worth €9 when we ate it elsewhere for €2.5. In short, a place to avoid since they use the excuse of gluten-free to scare tourists and on top of that there is no air conditioning.
Such a wonderful place! An oasis in tourist hell. Everything is delicious, gluten-free, dairy-free, and even vegan. The people are super friendly and the place, especially with the garden in the back, is absolutely beautiful! Thank you!!
The best vegan chocolate cupcake I have ever tried! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. All products are gluten free too. It was my favourite spot in town <3
I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back "Hello, Paulina!
We have several gluten-free and vegan options on the menu. From tapioca, salads, smoothie bowls, shakshuka, pancakes, etc.
We'd also like to inform you that all toasts can be served on gluten-free bread or with a baked sweet potato base instead of traditional bread. You can see our menu at: https://www.zenithcaffe.pt/EmentaZenithPT.pdf // https://www.zenithcaffe.es/MENU_ZENITH_ES_ENG.pdf However, given that all the products are made in the same kitchen and that we have very limited space, we can't guarantee 100% that there won't be any cross-contamination, even though we take every possible precaution. To date we have never had any reported incidents
If you come to visit us, we suggest that you inform the manager immediately when you order, so that we can take extra care. We hope to see you soon, Zenith team "
Very nice brunch at Noshi! We enjoyed the ambiance and natural lighting of the patio, and you also have a couple of different options of where to sit down.
We ordered a couple of drinks and food. The golden milk was on the sweeter side so keep that in mind! Also, even though the orange juice said natural, I felt that they had added sugar to it. We also ordered the vegan toast, delicious gluten free bread, wonderful balance of flavors and textures, we both enjoyed it very much. We also got the chia pudding which was great as well, nice proportions of fruit and jam. The service was alright. Attention was a little slow, maybe it was busy, and our server had little patience with us that day when I was asking questions, but thats alright.
Would definitely return to try more goodies!

Ingredients were good quality and price was reasonable, but ordering was a nightmare and despite getting a market plate and an extra side, I left still hungry.
I asked whether the chicken dish I ordered was gluten free and was told yes, but it arrived covered in breadcrumbs.
Additionally, I was brought the wrong order twice before they got it right, including the second time where they added bread despite me clearly asking for the salad because it was gluten free.
Others with allergens here should keep in mind that although some other allergens are labeled clearly, gluten is not.
Excellent food, friendly servers who communicate easily in several languages, and a short wait that was quickly forgotten. Be careful, there are no gluten-free options.
What a wonderful gem to find in Porto! Everything was delicious from start to finish - mocktails, vegan nachos and their cheesecake. Lots of gluten free options on the menu as well. Trendy and modern decor. Service is on the slower end, but that is common around all restaurants in Porto. Would definitely return here if I am back in Portugal
It's super good, the food is delicious and very reasonably priced. One drawback is that if you're celiac or gluten-intolerant, it's quite exhausting to be charged the difference and an extra 1 euro. It just doesn't make sense. Otherwise, everything is delicious, the atmosphere is super nice, and so is the place.
Amazing gluten free brunch. Fresh ingredients and a peaceful space to enjoy in. Ordered the scrambled eggs, came with a gluten free cracker instead of sourdough which was turnout out to be a nice substitute and the whole meal was very filling.
Really enjoyed this place, there was a big variety of food and a good atmosphere.
A good place for a first date or just for an affordable dinner.
All-you-can-eat lettuce was a godsend in this gluten-full, pastry-for-breakfast/lunch/dinner continent.
Great place, extremely recommend.
Mercador Café & Brunch in Porto is a gem for those looking for a cozy place with a modern atmosphere. The service was super friendly and fast. I enjoyed a delicious açaí with fruits, which was fresh and very well presented. 🍓🫐 In addition, they offer gluten-free bread, which is a great plus for those who need it. Their coffee is excellent and perfect to accompany their varied menu, which includes fresh and healthy dishes. 🥑🍳 The decoration of the place is elegant, ideal for relaxing or having a good time. Although the prices may be a little high, the quality justifies it. Without a doubt, a place that I recommend for a quiet and tasty brunch in the heart of Porto.
I loved this bar for gluten-free and vegan breakfast!!! We went twice during our trip to Porto and we will return for sure, thank you very much for giving us options for those of us who have dietary restrictions. The place was also very nice.
Fantastic food & quality! (tuna tacos are simply AMAZING!). Tasty gluten free beer. Super efficient & friendly servers. One of the best places to eat in Porto!
Super delicious food and superb service. The waiters couldn't be nicer or more attentive. They adapt almost everything to gluten-free. Highly recommended.
I loved the whole experience. The food is delicious and well presented. The atmosphere is beautiful and welcoming and the service is very friendly.
I had a very tasty mushroom cream, a bowl of very good tuna tataki and a slice of gluten-free chocolate cake that was divine!!
We ordered two takeaway pistachio matchas for €14.30.
We asked for one gluten free and one with oat milk. They gave us the gluten free one with oat milk (which is not gluten free). This meant that we had to scrape the cookie and pistachio cream off my celiac friend’s drink and onto mine as she is allergic.
It also took us 20 minutes to receive the drinks and the sizes were incredibly small. Not worth the money.
We had also seen them bring out the dine in drink with the pistachio cookie advertised but instead we got a small biscoff cookie for some reason.
I had walked by this place many times and finally stopped in yesterday. I am gluten free (celiac) and so I was just expecting to get a coffee and fruit or something simple. To my surprise and delight, they have GLUTEN FREE bread!!!! I had a delicious eggs benedict-type-thing with poached eggs, spinach and tomato chutney. It was amazing. I know I will go back a lot since it is close to home now. So happy to have wandered in.
The staff is extremely friendly and I think the food would have been ok. I asked to confirm what was gluten free. The cook said I could have the hake it came out without any seasoning at all. Bland and a bit over cooked. My friend fish was delicious tho
Best breakfast in Porto! 🌞
A happy place to enjoy breakfast or brunch, lovely people and great atmosphere. Just like a sunshine!
Local ingredients, seasonal food, simple yet not plain dishes. Eggs were fresh and well prepared, sourdough was really good. Highly recommend the cheesecake also.
Service was the friendliest and quickest we experienced, even if the place is really popular and you might need to wait a bit for a table. The place has Scandi feel to it, it’s airy even when packed and the atmosphere is cheery yet allows for conversation. Also loved the design and branding.
Gluten free options available. Vegetarian options for breakfast and lunch. Pet friendly.
One of the best restaurant meals I've ever had! Came with a friend on our first night in porto, amazing food, delicious wine, fantastic service and great fancy atmosphere all at an amazing price. Good Gluten Free options as well. 1000% recommended!
Very nice cafe with very warm and helpful staff and very tasty food!!
I was even able to order the bread from my dish and was allowed to eat the gluten-free bread I had brought with me! Really great!
We'd love to come back!
Nice cafeteria with very complete and delicious breakfast dishes. They are decisive and that pays off. The staff is very friendly.
And they have gluten-free and lactose-free options.
Traditional Portuguese food and NOT touristy. He is served by a charming couple.
We ate different dishes of octopus and cod, grilled alheira (something different to try)
A celiac can eat almost anything.
Best meal we had in a while! They did gluten free adapted meal on request: I was ensured they used a fresh pan and utensils to avoid cross contamination.
Try the white sangria and the chocolate mousse (!).
Fantastic dinner, with a beautiful gastronomic experience. Very attentive to our daughter (who cannot eat gluten) and with good alternatives for her to eat.
Relaxed and pleasant space. Friendliness and good service. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. Good food and fast service. I had the mushroom risotto which is excellent and the vegan raspberry ice cream which is super tasty. The pizza rotation is very generous. Everyone took home pizza! Good quality-price ratio.
The space has good cultural programming and exhibitions. I recommend.
My girlfriend and I went for breakfast. They didn't have gluten-free bread that day, and they mentioned it after we'd ordered and my food was brought to me. Despite this, she was able to order eggs with bacon and potatoes, which were very good. The waiter was very nice, the place very cozy, and the food was very good.
