About Bresca Coimbra

A lunch or dinner at Bresca Coimbra pulls you somewhere between a neighbourhood trattoria and a room that clearly had a designer involved — the interior is stylish enough that 65 reviewers felt compelled to mention it. The kitchen leans Italian, and the carbotrufa and burrata are the dishes people come back for; the pasta filled with mascarpone and pear in a Gorgonzola sauce has its own following among those who found it once and ordered it again the next night. The sangria earns its place as a way to settle in before the food arrives. The gluten-free and vegan options are taken seriously here, which is rarer in Coimbra than it should be — both appear consistently across recent reviews.
