Cozy little restaurant with traditional Portuguese food. Absolutely loved the prego - tender beautifully flavoured meat paired with cheese. Side of crisps also seemed homemade and delicious. Octopus salad was nice - but just a warning, it’s mostly diced onions and olive oil. Definitely come here for an affordable experience of Porto food.

I've got to say, this sandwich is hands down the best I've ever had. Just imagine a perfectly half-fried egg with its runny yolk, paired with Portuguese cheese, and a slice of beef steak cooked to perfection, all snugly nestled between two crispy yet tender slices of bread. As you take a bite, that egg yolk oozes out, adding a creamy, slightly salty twist to the delectable beef steak. Regarding the side of potato chips – they look like they're straight from a bag, but with the first bite, you realize they're freshly fried with a tantalizing mix of spices, and perfectly seasoned. It's such a treat, 9.25/10.

A decent spot for a quick pork sandwich. Loved the rojoes (the pork dish starter), a simple but homely and nourishing dish. Sandwiches are decent at great prices. Personally would prefer more fatty bits in the sandwich but would not disrespect the cuisine if that is how it is done:) Fantastic service and a quiet ambience at noon.

Delicious food with very cheap prices. The pork shank sandwich with cheese and the medium rare steak were exquisite. The service was good as well. The restaurant is quite small but it has a nice vibe to it. 10/10 would recommend

Great Portuguese 👍 food. Absolutely delicious 😋. And the service excellent. A real joy to eat here. An absolute must try when in Porto.

Came here for dinner around six during the week and was seated immediately. This neighborhood spot. The staff are really nice and it's a relaxed. The octopus salad is good but heavy on the raw onions. Its not heavy so u can eat a whole on your on. I also had a beef sandwich. Make sure u clarify what is in the dish u order. They often serve beef sandwiches with a slice of ham so ask if u have food preferences.

Great little place with fantastic Portuguese style food with great vibe. Octopus salad and cod salad are really good as appetiser and pork and steak were also nice done. Service was friendly and professional. Really good place to have a dinner and all dishes are well priced! Must try when in Porto!

Ich bin aufgrund der vielen positiven Bewertungen auf das Restaurant aufmerksam geworden. Meine Erwartungen waren hoch und wurden auch vollkommen getroffen. Das Steak im Sandwich war sehr saftig und lecker. Die Chips haben das ganze abgerundet. Der Preis war sehr gut und die Bedienung freundlich und schnell. Ein englisches Menü war vorhanden. Bei meinem nächsten Besuch in Porto komme ich gerne wieder.

Soup was served lukewarm. I had pork shank with cheese and potato chips. Very salty, greasy, but very tasty. Their bread is totally outstanding. You must try it! Chocolate cake and ice cream was also delicious.

Amazing food and prices, the steak sandwich was great and a pint of ultra cold Super Bock only 2 euros which is a steal for sure also service was great too, very friendly and helpful staff. Only complain was that the place is packed (understandably) so you sit very close to other people, I was leaning back to back with the guy behind me.

I’m a happy hiker. I had steak with fried egg and the bread was phenomenal. Just perfect bread. The steak was good, not too heavy and well portioned. The egg was fried well with a little runny yoke. I don’t even like eggs but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place especially the Steak sandwich!

Lareira feels like a hidden gem, albeit a super popular one 😀. Their sangria is sooo good (the white is best imo but the red is also great), and you get a large glass of it for a small price. Their chicken with Portuguese cheese sandwich is ah-ma-zing, as is the pork shank one. Don’t normally care about potato chips, but theirs are homemade with spices and are really terrific.

We ordered the octopus salad with vinaigrette (green sauce was the other spicy option) and pork shank special sandwich. Both really tasty and reasonably priced. A great option to for a quick meal!

A great place to eat great but not.expensibe tapas. The bread is delicious and the rest of the food is too. It is crowded and the tables are close to each other. The service is very friendly and competent. The white sangria was fabulous.

I was recommended to visit this restaurant. I highly recommend going there as well. I had a wide variety of food and it was not that expensive for the experience and the meal. (10€/person) The staff were really friendly and sweet. They checked up on us and asked if everything was going well and if we were enjoying the meal (hard to find these days). I loved the entire meal from start to finish. I highly recommend the bread and charcuterie, the pork sandwich was really good as well. Paired with the white sangria, which was really refreshing and washed everything down so well. The desert was Tripas with chocolate. It was really warm and the ratio of chocolate was just perfect for the bite. A complete meal and whole hearted experience that filled my soul.

(Translated by Google) Even with the pandemic I was very well attended, a friendly attendant explained to me how it was done and gave me alternatives from the menu, I super approve (Original) Mesmo com a pandemia fui muito bem atendido, atendente uma simpatia me explicou como era feito e me deu alternativas do menu, super aprovo

(Translated by Google) I advise this restaurant taking into account the efficiency and speed of the service, friendliness and professionalism of all the staff. Simple but fantastic dishes. I highlight the sausage and mixed plates, the ham sandwich or the equally delicious dish. To accompany the bleeding. Very central location (Original) Aconselho este restaurante tendo em conta a eficiência e rapidez do serviço, simpatia e profissionalismo de todo o staff. Pratos simples mas fantásticos. Saliento as tábuas de enchidos e mistas, a sandes de pernil ou no prato igualmente delicioso. Para acompanhar as sangrias. Local muito central

Great place in the city center. Service was fast and waiter friendly. The salad was maybe a bit tiny but we really enjoyed the meat and cheese board. Cheap and tasty wine. Their sandwiches look really tasty as well, but it will be for next time. The place is easily packed, so better calling or going early

(Translated by Google) Good food and inexpensive (Original) Buena comida y económica

Sangria was 👌excellent. I had the picapau which is a bit salty on its own but definitely good to savour with bread. The bread was top notch, crispy on the edges crusty with every bite. It’s not too expensive, I went there around 12pm as the lunch order just opened so there was no queue. It began to get busier as I had my food

If you're in the mood for a delightful little snack and a sip of sangria, this place is an absolute gem! The Sangria here is nothing short of a revelation – it's so incredible that I'd go as far as saying it's the best I've ever had the pleasure of tasting. The Sangria, particularly the white sangria from the jug, is a true masterpiece. It's not just a drink; it's an experience, a journey of flavors that dance on your palate. The perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess, with a subtle hint of fruitiness, makes it a must-try. What's even more impressive is the price – only €7 for a jug of this liquid ambrosia? It's practically a steal for something that's this divine. So, if you're looking for a place to unwind, enjoy a tasty snack, and savor the best sangria of your life, look no further. This spot is a Sangria lover's paradise, and I can't recommend it highly enough!

The place itself is cozy, and we had the chance of seating outside which was nice. Food was ok, the picapau was the highlight but the sandwiches were also fine. Prices are reasonable, not to say cheap.

Portuguese tapas place. You need to try white sangria & all different tapas . Tasty and cheep prices ! Good quality! Nice personal!

First time I had blanco Sangria. Tasted more as a sweet Mojito. The glass was around €2.5 which is quite cheap. The food was average, nothing too pretentious. I have expected the mackerel and the sardines to have been grilled not from the can. Same for the octopus. The main dish, chicken plated, it was alright.

The food, especially the sandwiches, are so good. The sangria is tasty as well! Good prices, friendly stuff and cool interior! Been there twice within a week because I loved it

Great service with very friendly staff. We loved the octopus salad that was recommended to us! Both the red and white sangria were delicious. The steak sandwich was our favorite but the pork sandwich was also very good.

Food is very good and Portuguese and inexpensive. But the service is poor. The waitress is short with us and could not even tell us the wifi password correctly. When we asked the password again, she didn't care to fix it. We waited for a long time for her to take orders and again for a long time to take the desert order.Food is inexpensive and would be good for lunch

My favourite place in Porto! I mean what I say..Sangria ..I have no words to describe it. I have tried it all over Portugal but in Lareira it is the best and costs only 2 €. The food is amazing! I specifically recommend pica pão, tabula mista, pernil com ovo.. 😍😍😍 staff is cool. You just have to be polite and you will see the magic 🤓✨✨✨ The place is packed Friday and Saturday..so try to come a bit earlier 🕣

I wanted to like this place more, the room is cool, service was slow to start but the server got much friendlier. I had the pica pau And found The flavour to be a little lacking from other ones I have had, the presentation looked good though, I also had the prego and it didn't have much salt or garlic flavour , the bread was nice Nd the steak quality was good. All in all, I would go back but there are a lot of other places I Porto I would rather go

Lareira impresses with its must-try house wine and delicious offerings of cheese, meats, and seafood. Every bite was a delight, leaving us excited for our next visit. This restaurant is a gem for those seeking authentic Portuguese flavors.

We had a great lunch here, the sandwich of pernil especial was amazing as was the beef sandwich, but that one is harder to eat so I like it a little less. The people is so nice here, making you feel very welcome.

This was a good place to acquaint yourself with Portuguese food. The place is small and a little bit packed but that just means it's good, right? I had the octopus with green sauce (sorry, no picture), as well as the sardines and horse-mackarel. My husband had the smoked meats and cheese plate (and something else that I forgot). We enjoyed our respective dishes a lot. The food was very affordable, and it's a good place to hang out with your friends, I think.

Amazing, great food, fair prices, top location Could come here everyday Had the Picapao, Alheira, and Bacalhau patties, bread (needed for Picapao) and two glasses of port and a litre of sangria. Overfull for 32€ Super busy, plan for a little wait or come around 19:00

I do not think they need much introduction if you look at the amount of positivs reviews they have. I had the octopus with green sauce, the pork shank, anx chocolate cake with icecream 👌 Only the octopus could be a bit more marinated..but the combination with green sauce was devine. I actually came because I wanted to try the octopus. The pork shank- tender, juice, properly seasoned and all The dessert- definately a must try too. Also try the sangria- as recommended in previous reviews. This is also what I did. Bear in mind they are busy so come early or later on.

My favorite restaurant in porto with the by far best price-quality ratio! I visited this place 4 times during my 2-week stay in Porto. The octopus salad is the best in town, the steaks + chips are amazing, and the chocolate cake is second-to-none (super fudgy). Additionally, the service is extremely friendly and welcoming. Will for sure come back again!

One of the recommendations by the local guide and was definitely worth it. Good value for very decent prices. It had such a great variety of options that we left full to the brim both times - so much we wanted to try out. Sardines were simply delicious, I'd come back for more. Service was on top level and food was served rather quickly. Recommend!

Great for a quick bite. The chips that come as a side to the very good steak sandwiches are rather greasy, but overall a very good (and fast) option.

(Translated by Google) Great!!! (Original) Excelente!!!

We hauled ourselves 25 minutes, uphill, in the heat, because we had to give this spot a try. It’s an unassuming, genuine lunch spot with great meat dishes. We opted for the pork sandwich and steak plate. The bread used in the sandwich is unbeatable, the egg/ham combo topping the steak is a surprising, yet delicious addition, and the hospitality warm and welcoming.

Good bistro with traditional sandwiches. We took Pernil com Queijo da Serra (pork leg with local cheese) - tasty 😋 It comes with chips by default (too oily for me, as many traditional dishes). Fast service!

This was my go-to food/drink spot during my trip to Porto. I essentially went here once a day. The steak, cheese, and egg sandwich was phenomenal and both the white and red sangria were mind-blowing! I don’t normally like white sangrias, but it kind of reminded me of a mojito - which I absolutely loved! Really great spot with awesome prices - a nice change of pace from the typical tourist spots. Highly recommend checking this place out!

Cosy little restaurant with superb quality food for very reasonable prices. We sampled a range of the sharing dishes and sandwiches over a couple of visits and everything we tried was delicious. All of the meat especially tasted very fresh and high quality, fantastic value for the prices they are charging. The staff were also very pleasant and helpful, and the old stone interior makes for a nice setting to enjoy your meal.

Came here for an early dinner on a Sunday. It was pretty busy but seated immediately. They have an English menu. The octopus salad was very tender and fresh. Ordered the half smoke meat and cheese which was the perfect size for a starter, loved the softer cheese. Split the pernil sandwich with cheese and it was so juicy and savory, love that the bread soaked up the delicious sauce. Served with homemade crisps that were so light and crunchy. Felt very local and not touristy and cheap prices.

Amazing lunch spot - must visit! Service fantastic and wonderful range of plates and sandwiches. Outstanding affordable wine and food. You have to go!

Good place for a casual lunch! We ordered the chicken steak with fried egg sandwich and a plate of cod dumplings. I enjoyed the sandwich very much, but didn't like the cod dumplings. The dumplings were cold and the texture was a bit stringy. I'm not sure if that's how they are supposed to be, but I didn't care for them. Their Red Sangria was excellent so that helped bump up the rating in my opinion. ;)

Amazing food amazing sangria, amazing service, we really enjoyed this discovery. Goat cheese with ham and beef is just love. The prices are extraordinary for the food quality you are getting. Definitely a must visit

I came to Lareira for lunch on a Sunday afternoon, it was packed completely, both inside and outside. The waiters work very hard and get the food out quite fast, despite the overwhelming number of customers. The Caldo Verde soup was ok. The special Prego (beef) sandwich though… Amazing! One of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had in my life, really. Tender juicy beef, perfectly cooked egg, great bread. They managed to really get the right proportions of everything in a way that makes the sandwich juicy but somehow not greasy at all. The servers and staff were all very nice and friendly. Last, but not least - the prices are quite low, especially given the quality and quality of the food. I paid €10 for soup, sandwich with a big side of delicious garlic-flavored chips, and a glass of wine. Wonderful place, highly recommended.

The quality of food and drinks were good. I had sardines, tuna and octopus. They tasted good with the way they prepared, but they were canned or frozen. Bread was great as well as their service.

Really enjoyed the pork shank special sandwich with crisps here. The sausage was something new, and we liked the cod but the dressing was potent. The tuna wasn't worth ordering. Overall is worth a visit for the sandwich.

Despite the waiting time, it was definitely worth the wait. All the staff were super friendly and recommended delicious traditional Portuguese food. Everything was so flavourful and filling all at an affordable price. The restaurant was super cosy and we didn’t feel rushed at all whilst eating.

(Translated by Google) Everything the typical tavern should bring together: good food, a relaxed atmosphere and top service. I advise the nail, the shank of ham combined with a sangria and a delicious dessert. Today I experienced for the first time the take-away from the downtown fireplace, the food nothing to add, top as always being that it is neither the first nor the second nor will it be the last time there as, I can only add the excellent take experience -way from the fireplace, everything arrived impeccable, it's not like the uber eats or the glovo that looks more like I asked for a puzzle and I have to assemble the sandwiches, nothing like that, I placed an order with several different things and for several people and everything arrived presentable and with great looks, always very affordable price. Ps: the delivery girl was super friendly, attentive, quick and efficient, they told me a time and arrived well before I was told, I didn't have to starve waiting and just see the delivery time increasing as in apps, details where you can see the professionalism of the employees, it is worth leaving a good tip because after all we all like to be well served, from the restaurants that I recommend most, whether on site or at home👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 (I had already made a positive comment before but since I can’t comment again with my Google account, I leave the editing of it) (Original) Tudo o que a típica tasca deve reunir: boa comida, atmosfera descontraída e atendimento top. Aconselho o prego, a sande de pernil aliada a uma sangria e uma sobremesa deliciosa. Hoje experiênciei pela primeira vez o take-away do lareira da baixa, da comida nada a acrescentar, top como sempre sendo que não é a primeira nem a segunda nem vai ser a última vez que lá como, só posso acrescentar a excelente experiência de take-away do lareira, chegou tudo impecável, não é como a uber eats ou a glovo que mais parece que pedi um puzzle e tenho de montar as sandes, nada disso, fiz um pedido com várias coisas diferentes e para várias pessoas e chegou tudo apresentável e com ótimo aspecto, preço sempre bastante acessível. Ps: a menina das entregas foi super simpática, atenciosa, rápida e eficaz, indicaram-me um horário e chegou bem antes do que me foi indicado, não tive de morrer de fome à espera e ver só o tempo de entrega a aumentar como nas apps, pormenores onde se vê o profissionalismo dos funcionários, vale a pena deixar uma boa gorjeta pois afinal todos gostamos de ser bem atendidos, dos restaurantes que mais recomendo quer seja no sitio ou em casa👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 (já tinha feito um comentário batente positivo antes mas visto não poder comentar novamente com a minha conta Google deixo a edição do mesmo)

A terrific local eatery, that's off the beaten path, with a nice section of local sandwiches, cured meats, cheeses, and dessert options. They serve beer, wine, and port in a small deli restaurant on an unassuming street just around the corner from the hustle and bustle of Praça de Lisboa and Clérigos. There's no outdoor seating here, but they're staffed by locals who are warm and friendly, and ready with advice on the menu. This place is also impeccably clean. The staff cleans down their stations as they go, is quick turning tables, and the washroom faculties are pristine for a typically cramped eatery in an old building. This is a great choice for a quick meal of local favorites.

Food was so nice and good price.

I wanted to eat dinner in this place today. I am asthmatic, I cannot use the mask but I have a protective helmet. the waitress at the entrance said that I will not go in. I think it is total discrimination and I am very disappointed.

Super nice service in this stylishly, casual, tasty and affordable place. Served tapas styles with many items offered at half portions. Great for lunch.

Great taste, value and people.

Proper tasty scran. Had the pork, octopus, cod patties and sangria. All well good. Get some bread to soak up those tasty sauces. Really good food. Nice one.

We just wanted to have a few drinks and little food, everything we ordered was delicious and at good prices. Very casual and comfortable, you can see it's a popular place but not over charge.

They offer plenty of delicious sandwiches at a very affordable price!

(Translated by Google) Good nail, although simple. The amount of the half portion of octopus is ridiculous for being so small for the price it is. (Original) Prego bom, apesar de simples. A quantidade da meia porção de polvo é que é ridícula de tão pequena para o preço que é.

Nice small restaurant right in the center of the city. Food is good and service is great. Highly recommended

Distinctly average food. Literally all sandwiches come with an egg or ham or both even if the menu says they do not. So just ask when here. The food is pretty cheap so you can’t complain. The cheese and meat board are not the best, very smoky and distinctive flavours. The service was ok and generally clean.

(Translated by Google) Well located. Fast and friendly service. Local with quick meals and good price. A little noisy but in keeping with the style. Good hygiene. (Original) Bem localizado. Atendimento rápido e simpático. Local com refeições rápidas e bom preço. Um pouco barulhento mas está de acordo com o estilo. Boa higiene.

(Translated by Google) The service was unfortunately very unfriendly, but could at least speak English.

Prices very, very low, the most expensive sandwich with all the trimmings for under 6 € (Original) Bedienung war leider sehr unfreundlich, konnte aber wenigstens Englisch. Die schöne Theke auf den Bildern ist leider nicht mehr vorhanden, dennoch für ein schnelles Sandwich okay. Abraten würde ich vom Steaksandwich ausser man mag zähes Fleisch.

There are no words to translate how tasty is the "Pica-pau". The best in Porto, for sure! The place is cozy, close to the Carlos Alberto's Square, a beautiful location.
