City Guide
Filter-only counters, working roasteries, and coffee-and-brunch rooms worth crossing Porto for.
Porto's coffee scene is compact enough to explore deliberately and varied enough to shape a day, with serious roasting on both sides of the Douro.
Porto's best coffee falls into a few useful pockets. Cedofeita and Bombarda bring filter-only counters and cafe-bakeries; Bonfim adds small independents and working roasteries; across the Douro, 7g gives Vila Nova de Gaia a destination roastery-cafe of its own.
