Cafe Brites

In the heart of Porto's bread-loving culture, Brites in Marquês perfectly balances artisanal craft with irresistible indulgence. More than a sourdough source, it's a shrine to baking, tempting passersby with golden croissants and buttery pastries.

Its philosophy is simple: exceptional technique across all bakery classics, from crusty bread to plush sweets. This means quality and flavour are paramount in every item.

Standouts include the flaky Kouign-Amann, pillowy-soft focaccia, and divine Bolas de Berlim (Portugal's custard-filled doughnut).

By day, it becomes a lunchtime haven, serving delicious focaccia sandwiches with Portuguese staples like Serra cheese and cured ham, plus vegetarian options.

A beloved local treasure, Brites is more than a bakery—it's a daily destination for a perfect, delicious pause in the Porto day.
