At the south wing of São Bento Station you’ll find Time Out Market, a space that celebrates the city’s food and culinary talent through 11 restaurants, a bar, a tasting room and a store.
Porto has all the ingredients for the perfect city break: exceptional local cuisine, great shops, stunning sunset views, and souvenirs your friends and family will be begging you to bring back for them (we’d recommend leaving room in your bags for some beautifully packaged tinned fish, or a nice bottle of Port wine).
What might surprise you about this very trendy but small city is just how much there is to see and do. And that’s where our local Porto editors come in. They live here, they work here, and they spend their days scouring the city for the very best things to see, do, eat, drink and more. It doesn't matter if it’s the most famous attraction in the city, or totally under the radar: if it’s worth doing in Porto, it's on this list. Find their top picks below.
