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

Mia Uu

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!!

Laura

A great pizzeria, with super friendly service from the very first moment. David, the owner, is charming and makes you feel at home. If you have celiac disease or an egg allergy, this is an ideal place: they have many gluten-free and egg-free options that are safe and delicious.

Jenny Griesser

Great service, efficient, fast, and friendly! Excellent and original smoothie! Incredible pancakes *_* Gluten-free, vegan, and lactose-free options

Paulina Kasongo

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!

A lovely family owned restaurant. The food was great, and the owners were so lovely and accommodating as we had no reservation and got a table quite late. They had a separate gluten free menu too which was great for my friend. They made it a great experience for us. I’ll be thinking about the chocolate dream cake for a long time!

Iris Lys

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.

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.

paul montague

Had a lovely meal here. Great for gluten fee, knowledgeable friendly staff, menu clearly labelled and staff confirmed all orders to be sure all gluten free. Had the mozzarella salad, delicious squid and amazing duck risotto. Very small resturant on the water front. Seating outside with about 5 tables for 2 inside.

Mia Uu

It's incredibly delicious, everything's vegan, there are plenty of gluten-free options, the service is friendly, and everything looks beautiful! What can I say, it was amazing! Absolutely recommended!

kevin bodurian

great gluten free pasta, ice cream and service!

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back "Hi Paulina,  We do have a gluten free menu.  When you visit us, please inform the server of all your allergies, our staff will certainly provide you a meal free of allergens.  Check attached our full menu allergens for your consideration prior to your visit.  Thanks"

Go Ianiz

Great arepas and gluten free beer

María Filgueira

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.

sofia tosatto

Pastel do bacalau gluten free very good, the gluten free dishes were reported

Ellen Olšavská

Very tasty food and really helpful staff. He helped me choosing gluten free items from the menu considering cross contamination:)

paul montague

Fantastic meal here. Just back of the river front and behind the restaurant Rib. Great atmosphere. Good for gluten free. Knowledgeable staff and lots of options for those with dietary restrictions. Food was delicious but go hungry as portions generous. Had a sea bass and.octopus as mains, both of which were great. All dishes looked good. Delicious mouse for desert. Good wine selection. All reasonably priced. Would highly recommend. Booking needed.

paul montague

Great resturant. Limited gluten free choices but all labelled, knowledge and friendly staff well informed on cross contamination. Non GF food all looked great. We had tortilla, veal capaccio and prawn risotto. All delicious. Great setting with a good vibe in the main railway station. Booking required as constantly busy.

ana martin

Super delicious food and superb service. The waiters couldn't be nicer or more attentive. They adapt almost everything to gluten-free. Highly recommended.

Miriam Jean-Jacques

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.

lily hall

Gorgeous building and super quick service. My friend is gluten free and received a yummy gluten free burger. Vegetarian burger was good too. Would come again.

Camila Kestelboim

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.

Paula Gomes

Gluten-free options and the house iced tea is delicious

lily hall

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.

Richard S

Friendly staff who helped me out with a gluten free burger bun. The outside seating is kept clean and pigeon free.

Alastair Delafield

Lovely little restaurant with a great gluten free menu

lua cheia

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!

Mónica López Cuervo Tolinos

It is a spectacular place to eat and have a great time with family or friends. The food is great and as far as allergens are concerned there is nothing to worry about. As for the waiters, they are all charming, especially a boy with glasses who brought me a complimentary gluten-free skewer because he had heard that I have celiac disease. Unfortunately, not understanding Portuguese well, I understood that he had made a mistake and I rejected it. Thank you very much anyway, if I have the chance, I will try all the delicious gluten-free skewers again. A kiss❤️❤️❤️

Expensive compared to most restaurants you will find around Porto but you absolutely get what you pay for. Dishes are organic, gluten free, vegan and fresh. No prepackaged, thrown in a microwave food here. I wish more places existed like this and I will miss it terribly when we move.

Daniela Sá

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!!

Evianne Legrand

An hour before walked. But once there, you are assured of a gluten free menu because it is even on the tables. What friendly staff. Really a very good quality ratio! For €10,- a 3 course served…

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back " Hello Paulina! Thank you for your contact.   Even though we offer gluten free options, it’s important to mention that any restaurant that prepares its dishes in the same kitchen as others with gluten has an obligation to warn of the possibility of having allergenic traces. Our team is extremely careful, but since our dishes are all made in the same kitchen that already implies a risk of cross contamination, even if it’s a small one.   That’s why we understand it’s extremely important to warn all of our guests, so they are aware of the conditions we work in and then they take the decision of visiting us, or not. Specially because we do not have a separate kitchen, fridge, utensils and instruments to cook the gluten free dishes.  Thank you, the Boa-Bao team"

Leo Guntli

Amazing! Best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had in my life!!!(you have to advise them 24 hours in advance for the GF dough) The non-gluten free pizzas are also very very good! Staff is very helpful and funny. I will come back here for sure!

Richard Walker

Great, fun casual dinner place. Gluten and Allergy aware with staff that goes out of their way to help (Thanks Rose !) Food was amazing and portion size crazy large. Will be back!

Barbara Sanchez

They have gluten-free pizzas! It would be nice if they advertised them more! We found out by chance, so we stopped by and asked. The menu outside didn't mention it, but they later gave us one that did (+3€ extra). The pizza was a bit pricey, but it's always good to have options.

Lydia C.

We came to get some take away sushi and the place was buzzin’. Better reserve a table for dine-in. We were happy that they were able to make our choices gluten-free. We had a couple of makis, nigiris and the vegan box, and everything was delicious and very well presented. Would come back.

Manuel Pomorin

We stumbled upon this wonderful venue to escape the rain. Then we were enchanted. We enjoyed an excellent wine tasting and made some great friends with other guests. When we asked about a celiac-friendly restaurant, we were promptly invited to the restaurant at the back of the shop. We could hardly believe the dreamy ambiance that awaited us. This was followed by an unforgettable dinner with wine pairing. When we left the venue several hours later, it was still raining, but our mood couldn't have been better. We left slightly tipsy and with our stomachs full of delicious food. A very special thank you goes to the entire service team. We haven't experienced such excellent, attentive, and friendly service in a long time. We will definitely be back.

Tarek AT.

Hi nice place in city center specially for sea food lover , ala carte or chiefs menu both option are great , staff very friendly and accommodating dietary option like gluten free .

kari bell

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

Rich Bowers

Enjoyed a delicious meal here. Needed some gluten free options, and the staff were very helpful. Great friendly service from Fernando. The food was superb. If you are around this way, I recommend this restaurant.

Nat Angstrom

Food, wine, and service were all excellent. One of our party is gluten and dairy intolerant and the menu states GF for many items but we did our best on dairy and it worked out. Very nice experience, would recommend!

Lilith Lensing

Best Eggplant I have ever eaten!! Such a nice service! Everything is vegan (but you can’t tell a difference between non-vegan food) - some dishes even with gluten free options. Highly recommend this restaurant!

Marie Marx

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!

Ciara Dunne

The food was great, the staff were attentive and made it a lovely experience. They even had an entire gluten free menu for my friend. I’d definitely go back.

Henry Tucker

Ashu Kumar

The food and service were beyond exceptional. From the start to the finish, it was just a pleasure to be there. My fiancé is celiac and they made sure on each level that everything she had was gluten free. If you are visiting Porto, highly recommend coming here. Yes, it is pricey compared to other restaurants but that is expected when you go for a fine dining. Will come back next time we travel to Porto. Huge shoutout to the staff🙏🏽

Leilane Santos

Excellent gluten free options. Good service.

Yolanda Carbonell Pascual

Highly recommended for a hearty breakfast, good atmosphere and very good service, and they also have gluten-free bread. We have repeated so it must be for a reason.

Dan Desmond

Staff recommended octopus and it was absolutely delicious! Most items on the menu can be made gluten free. Great location to sit outside and enjoy a view of the local buildings.
