Solar do Bacalhau
Portuguese · Bib

It sits in a privileged location in Baixa de Coimbra, an area of the historic centre that in the Middle Ages was occupied by merchants and artisans. If you are looking for a place to savour Portugal’s famous bacalhau (salt‑cod), you will not find a better spot! The product’s preparation can be observed up close, in an area where several postas de bacalhau (cod sections) hang and countless lombos (loins) are soaked. It goes without saying that there is a wide variety of this traditional dish on the menu, among which we suggest Bacalhau à Coimbra (Coimbra‑style bacalhau), served in an earthenwar

Casa Chef Victor Felisberto

If you’re thinking of trying fried sweetbreads, a chunk of veal, wood-fired slow-cooked chanfana (goat stew), or even confit pork cheeks from black pigs, there’s no better place than Casa do Chef Victor Felisberto. The specialty here is meat, cooked — mostly slowly — in a wood-fired oven, ensuring extremely succulent textures and deeper flavours. Additionally, the restaurant’s incredible signature fondants, as well as the bread baked in the same oven, should not be forgotten. With experience in renowned restaurants, the chef strives to share his interpretation of regional cuisine, blending tra

It sits beside the train station, a little away from the historic centre, in a single-storey house with a modern interior whose name references the year the couple behind it, Petr at the stoves and Ariana running the service, met while both were working in England. The concept? Contemporary, European-rooted cooking that minds the details and takes shape exclusively through several menus: a good-value lunch option (weekdays only), another in set-menu format (you can choose two or three courses) and a more complete tasting-style option. The Czech-born chef’s iconic dish is the Risotto de trufas,

The aim is to bring to the stage all the actors in this project: the products, the producers, the collaborators and, naturally, the owners — chef Marco Almeida and his partner Ana, the dining‑room lead. In this setting, where the protagonists are the ingredients, attention begins at the source, with the suppliers’ distance indicated at the end of each “cena” (scene). The commitment to local products and attachment to their land are reflected in creative dishes that are nonetheless familiar in the region, such as the intense manteiga de Leitão da Bairrada (Bairrada suckling‑pig lard), the Mockt

(Temporarily closed due to relocation) You’ll find delicacies such as tuna with caviar, Azores squid, sea urchin, crab gunkan and John Dory, as well as mochis and macaroons to round off your meal in this intimate space just a few steps from the old cathedral (Sé Velha) in this city located along the banks of the Mondego. The wooden bar counter is where MA serves its Omakase menu, while the à la carte dining room boasts more subdued lighting and a romantic feel. The culinary experience here is overseen by chef Ricardo Casqueiro, who combines Japanese tradition with Western techniques and Portug

Located along a picturesque narrow street in the famous Baixa de Coimbra district, just a few metres from the Santa Cruz monastery, this restaurant occupies a former warehouse that has been completely remodelled into a space with a bar at one end of the dining room where you can enjoy a more informal meal. The cuisine here features high-quality seasonal ingredients designed for sharing. We particularly enjoyed the tartare, croissant and shallot pickle, the lamb, cauliflower and honey vinegar, and the Basque tart!

Right in the city centre, at the Sociedade Cerâmica Antiga de Coimbra, an artisanal ceramics factory founded in 1824, you will find Refeitro da Baixa. This historically minded restaurant is divided between the pottery workshop, the centuries-old kilns and a rustic-modern wooden dining room, where it is still possible to watch the pieces being made through the glass doors that connect the two spaces. At the helm of the kitchen, chef João França presents a regionally rooted offering, respecting tradition while pairing it with modern techniques, such as Lula com Yuzu Kosho (squid with yuzu kosho)

This is one of those restaurants that takes us back to childhood—and no wonder, for there are many stories to tell here! The restaurant has been renovated, but the flavor and care taken in preparation remain the same. It presents a truly welcoming atmosphere, with exposed stone walls, light-toned décor and a thoroughly traditional cooking style that stands firm against current gastronomic trends. Our recommendation? To begin, order the magnificent Rissóis de Camarão (prawn rissoles) and Croquetes de Vitela (veal croquettes), and to finish, the Bolo de noz com ovos-moles (walnut cake with ovos
