Melhor pastelaria vegan de Portugal! - Edit
Tudo de-li-ci-o-so!! Tosta de ovos benedict, folhado de espinafres e ricotta… de salivar. E terminar com uma bola de berlim com creme… de chorar por mais! Enquanto não abrem em Lisboa, vou passando uns fins-de-semana no Porto de propósito para comer estas delícias veganas.
Read morePros: Tosta ovos benedict, Folhado espinafres e ricotta, Bola de berlim com creme
Cons: Não haver em Lisboa 😅
APADOCA
Muito obrigada, Sara!😄Que comentário delicioso de ler — ficamos radiantes em saber que considera a nossa pastelaria a melhor de Portugal! É uma honra receber quem vem de propósito de Lisboa para saborear as nossas delícias veganas. Enquanto não chegamos aí, será sempre um prazer recebê-la no Porto para muitas mais tostas, folhados e bolas de berlim memoráveis.

Opciones originales y ricas - Edit
Referente a bebidas pedimos un ice tea, que resulto ser una mezcla de matcha, limón y canela, no nos resulto una mezcla para nada apetecible. Y al acabar de comer como no lo tomamos no nos lo cobraron; lo cual nos resulta un detalle muy bueno. No trabajan con marcas comerciales, sino que te ofrecen opciones como fritz kola, y además te dan una botellita de agua de cortesía, todo esto en lo personal suma puntos.
Read moreTambién probamos la francesinha, si te gusta lo picante y salado, es un plato ideal, además de abundante. Luego comimos un trozo de empanada relleno de salchicha, cebolla y maíz, estaba bien pero nos resulto un poco caro para lo que es, por ese precio hubiéramos probado otra cosa de la carta.
Y para acabar de postre pedimos una berlina de crema, estaba buena sin más, y un pastel de nata, este si que nos resultó el mejor pastel de nata que hemos probado hasta la fecha.
APADOCA
Muchas gracias, Sol! Nos alegra mucho saber que encontraste opciones originales y ricas, y que el pastel de nata fue todo un éxito para ti — ¡qué honor que lo consideres el mejor que has probado hasta ahora! También agradecemos mucho tus comentarios sobre las bebidas, la empanada y los precios; tus observaciones nos ayudan a mejorar y seguir afinando detalles. Esperamos recibirte de nuevo para que sigas descubriendo más de nuestra carta.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Read moreQue descoberta incrível! O restaurante tem um ambiente super acolhedor e o staff é de uma simpatia contagiante — sempre atenciosos e prontos a recomendar o melhor da carta. Os pratos são verdadeiramente surpreendentes, cheios de sabor e criatividade, dá mesmo vontade de provar tudo. O café vietnamita é imperdível, intenso e delicioso, fecha a refeição de forma perfeita. Sem dúvida um espaço a repetir muitas vezes!
APADOCA
Muito obrigado, Francisco! Que alegria ler o seu comentário tão generoso — saber que encontrou acolhimento, sabor e criatividade na nossa casa enche-nos de motivação.

chill place - Edit
the place is chill. the service is sweet. unfortunately the bakery isn’t what i was expecting. especially pastel de nada was not close to what i was expecting.
Read morebut let’s see other places.
Pros: service is good
Cons: too much oil in food, to much fat, too sugary, not much taste
APADOCA
Thank you for sharing your honest feedback, Garonse 💚 We’re glad you enjoyed the service and felt the vibe was chill, but we’re truly sorry our pastries — especially the pastel de nata — didn’t meet your expectations. We’ll take your notes about oil, sweetness, and flavor seriously, as we’re always looking to improve. Hopefully we’ll have the chance to surprise you more positively in the future!

Friendly staff, tasty food - Edit
Portuguese people are friendly anyway but the gang here were super nice. We had questions about how they made some of their food (because it was so tasty) and they were happy to answer.
Read moreTheir reputation for the best pastel de nata makes sense, it’s amazing! We went twice while we were on holiday in Porto, first just for baked goods, then we went for lunch and picked up some of their calzone to take to the airport with us.
Top marks
Pros: Tasty, Friendly, Happy to talk about their recipes
Cons: The ragu was pretty salty (very tasty though)
APADOCA
Thank you so much, Nedwyn! 💚 We’re delighted you felt so welcomed by our team and enjoyed both our pastries and lunch dishes — and it makes us extra happy to know you even took a calzone with you to the airport! That’s such a compliment. Thanks also for the note on the ragu; we’ll keep an eye on the saltiness. Can’t wait to welcome you back next time you’re in Porto!

Sweet Oblivion - Edit
A Screaming Trees song title perfectly describes the croissants in this wonderful establishment. The variations of croissant are as endless as the taste and happiness you feel when you are eating one. The service is as good as croissants. Don’t leave Porto without trying !

Thank you so much, Odelle! 💚 What a beautiful way to describe our croissants — we’re overjoyed they brought you so much happiness. It means a lot that you also felt well cared for by our team. We’ll be here with more croissant magic waiting for your next visit to Porto!

Great options, but a bit dry - Edit
There was a lot of choice of sweet and savoury foods in the counter. I don't know if they had anything else available.
Read moreI went on my own, hadn't finished my drink or paid, went to the toilet, and they cleared my table before I came back. The struggles of being on your own!
Pros: Good selection
Cons: Pastry was quite heavy and dry, Expensive drink, 5 Euro Karma Kola
APADOCA
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Sarah! 💚 We’re glad you enjoyed the variety of options, but we’re really sorry to hear about your table being cleared too soon — that shouldn’t have happened, especially while you were still enjoying your drink. We’ll definitely pass this on to the team. As for the pastries and drinks, we appreciate the honest feedback and will keep it in mind to improve. We’d love to welcome you back for a smoother and tastier visit next time!

Maravilloso sitio en Oporto - Edit
Fuimos buscando alguna opción vegana nada más llegar de nuestro viaje. Encontrarse con sitios así es una sorpresa increíble para quienes llevamos ya años siendo veganos. La comida fue espectacular, con muy buena atención al detalle y muy sabrosa. Pedimos la tostada de huevos Benedict que es uno de los platos veganos más ricos que he comido nunca, y la pasta tampoco se queda atrás. Personal muy amable y un precio que nos pareció moderadamente alto, pero que responde a la calidad ofrecida. Además, los postres merecen mucho la pena. ¡Riquísimos!
Read moreAPADOCA
¡Muchísimas gracias, Sergio! 💚 Nos alegra enormemente saber que nuestra comida y el cariño del equipo os hicieron sentir bienvenidos desde el primer momento. La tostada de “huevos Benedict” también es una de nuestras favoritas — ¡qué ilusión leer tu comentario! Gracias por valorar la calidad y por apoyar la cocina 100% vegana. ¡Esperamos volver a veros pronto por Apadoca!

Es una panadería y bollería 100% vegetal con croissants estilo francés, natas, empanadas, etc. Todo hecho allí y riquísimo. También tienen opciones de bruch comi huevos benedictinos o tostas. Además, tienen un carta pequeña de platos para comer y cenar. Estos platos van cambiando.

Hello, just noticed while scrolling through reviews that the review is not from the same restaurant. The one you posted photos of is Padoca Vegan Restaurant from Gaia. They’re different restaurants, both vegan surprisingly.
