Best Restaurants & Bars in Foz do Douro Porto 2026
Porto's Atlantic playground - where the Douro meets the ocean
Updated weekly
About Foz do Douro
Foz do Douro is where Porto comes to breathe. At the mouth of the Douro River, where freshwater meets the Atlantic, this elegant neighbourhood has been the city's escape since the 19th century when wealthy merchants built summer villas along the coast.
The dining scene here reflects the setting - relaxed, seafood-focused, and designed around the view. From the iconic Pergola da Foz promenade to hidden beach bars, eating in Foz is as much about atmosphere as the food.
Come for sunset. The Atlantic light transforms the coastline golden, and every terrace fills with locals and visitors clutching glasses of vinho verde. This is Porto at its most Mediterranean.
Beach Life
Foz has a distinctly different energy from central Porto - more relaxed, more affluent, more focused on quality of life than tourism.
Porto's Riviera
Home to Porto's wealthiest families and their favourite restaurants. FC Porto footballers are regularly spotted at the waterfront terraces.
