was so excited but disappointed - Edit
walked entirely out of our way for this place but was disappointed😒everything was very expensive in comparison to the rest of porto, iced coffee €6.99 🫠🫠 and it was tiny. had a pistachio roll that was just like bread and didnt even taste like pistachio. also no vegan nata!! so sad. the coffee was tasty but just let me down

Read moreHi there,
We’re really sorry to hear you left disappointed — that’s never the experience we want for anyone who visits us 💔 Our prices reflect the quality of ingredients we use (always 100% vegan and often organic or artisanal), but we understand it may feel different from other spots in Porto. We hear you on the iced coffee and the pistachio roll, and we’ll definitely share your feedback with the team.
As for the vegan nata — they’re actually one of our bestsellers and often fly off the counter! They come out of the oven throughout the day, so sometimes it’s just a 5-minute wait for a fresh batch 🥲 Next time, we’d love for you to catch one warm and golden!
Thanks again for stopping by and for taking the time to share your experience 💚

Tutto buonissimo, personale gentile, pastel de nata TOP - Edit
Location molto accogliente e caratteristica. Hanno un menu composto da diversi piatti della tradizione rivisitati in chiave vegan, sono presentati con cura ed hanno un sapore strepitoso, nulla da invidiare alle versioni onnivori.
Read morePersonale gentilissimo disposto a spiegare tutto il menu per chi non conosce la cucina portoghese. Ed infine, ultimo, ma non per importanza, i pastel de nata erano appena fatti e buonissimi, i migliori in assoluto!
Unica pecca è chiuso per cena
Pros: Pastel de nata, Economico, Personale gentile
Cons: Chiuso a cena, I pastel de nata sono una droga
APADOCA
Grazie di cuore per la sua visita e per le bellissime parole! 🥰

Grazie anche per la comprensione riguardo ai nostri orari. Speriamo di rivederla presto per condividere altri momenti speciali insieme!
Un grande abbraccio da tutto il team 💚

LOVE this place! Great find! - Edit
Really loved this place. Was only in Porto 2 days and went both days. Only had breakfast so don't know what the lunch menu is like. First day i got french toast and my friend got eggs benedict. We both absolutely loved our meals! Really substantial and their home made chunky bread is incredible!
Read moreDay 2 i got shakshuka and my friend got avocado on toast. Again just amazing, so much flavour!
They have a huge counter of pastries, it was overwhelming to choose from! We got some different flavoured croissants, some custard pastries (forgot their names!) and some pastal de nadas. We took some of these home too! All just sooooo good!! Can't recommend this place enough, its a definite must go to if you are in Porto. And the staff are all lovely and friendly too. 100% recommend you visit!!
Pros: Lovely staff, Huge range of pastries and flavoursome meals, Fully vegan 🌱❤️
Cons: None!
APADOCA

Simply unforgettable! - Edit
I currently live in São Paulo — the vegan capital — with countless amazing options, and even so, this restaurant truly amazed me like few others have.
Read moreThe atmosphere is warm, cozy, and has that special, familiar feeling that makes you feel at home from the very first moment. There's a calm, welcoming vibe — it’s clear that every detail was thoughtfully crafted.
And the food… oh my God, the food! Every dish is an explosion of flavor. You can taste the care in every ingredient, the perfect balance of spices, the creativity in every combination — absolutely delicious. It was a complete experience from beginning to end.
No exaggeration: this is the best place I’ve ever been to. I’ll definitely be back — and I recommend it with all my heart!
Pros: The best nata I’ve ever had — incredible!, Unique flavors, fresh and delicious!, Flawless service, kind and welcoming.
Cons: only one place like this in the entire world
APADOCA
Wow! 💚
Read moreWe’re honestly speechless and beyond grateful for your beautiful words. Coming from someone who lives in São Paulo — such a vegan paradise — it truly means the world to us!
We put so much heart into every detail, from the flavors to the feeling, and hearing that it all came through in your experience… that’s exactly why we do what we do.
Thank you for reminding us why this little dream-come-true exists. We can’t wait to welcome you back anytime you're in Porto — your home away from home 🌱
With all our love,
