¡Muy recomendable!

Incredible! Came in with no expectations…came out a big fan!! - Edit
We came in to try the francesinha and we were mind blowing but the whole experience. The flavour was different than what I expected but much better than any other place I tried in Porto. It was not heavy and it was super fluffy. Their cake selection is insane. And we ended up trying them all because we were so amazed but how well done they were. 10/10 recommend
Read morePros: Loved the menu!! So many options 👌🏼, Francesinha was amazing , The cakes ARE MIND BLOWING
Cons: NONE!! Loved everything

You must visit this place - Edit
Amazing vegan food and the cats are super cute and chill, definitely recommend!
Read moreUpdating my review because I actually came back to this place! The first time I was here I just had a fresh juice and cake slice but this time I had a special hotdog with francesinha sauce and it was really good! Could have been more generous on the fries but otherwise I really enjoyed it. My gf ordered a different hotdog but didn't like it as much because the pickles were clearly fresh out of a jar.
The vegan cakes were excellent per usual though!

Lovely desserts & rich menu!! - Edit
Im a big dessert fan and there is no better vegan place in Porto for a variety of cakes & tarts! I think there was at least 7 different ones! I tried the chocolate banofee type and simply felt in love ❤ Not mentioning the cozy garden and lovely cats all over the place! There are so many delicious options of savoury dishes as well!! Will definitely come back to try more!

Great place and cute adopted and rescued cats - Edit
This was the first cat cafe I have ever experienced. it was great, the food was also great, nice prices and the place really beautiful.
Read moreThe cats have a great space to be with people, and it seems they also have their own space if they prefer. I have seen some visitors picking up the cats in order to take them out of the table. This can be very stressful for them having strangers handling they everyday. There is also a room people can eat without the presence of cats. If you planning to be with them, I suggest ordering food you can hold with your hands (like burgers and hot dogs) because they will definitely jump on your table.

Comida que conforta e gatinhos - Edit
Lugar fofo demais, staff simpática e gatinhos. 🥰 Provei o bolo de chocolate cremoso com gelado de limão e o cappuccino e estavam ótimos, aliás ha tempos não tomava um cappuccino tão gostoso e consistente. A voltar para experienciar outros sabores, ouvi dizer que as tostas são incríveis. E de quebra a gente dá um carinho pros gatinhos que lá vivem.

Great food & company - Edit
This was definitely an experience! The food was great and at very good prices. It did take about an hour to get one hot drink, so maybe not a place to visit in a hurry. The cats have a great space to roam and socialise with people. This is the first cat cafe (of 4) I’ve visited where visitors seemed to consistently pester and pick up the cats. Some of the them were reactive and clearly stressed at being picked up. It may not be detrimental to their welfare but if this is happening constantly everyday then it could certainly affect their behaviour and health. Cats are a solitary species and not toys for strangers to pick up without good reason. There weren’t many staff so it certainly would have been hard to enforce a no-handling rule, but it’s a shame it wasn’t discouraged more. If you are going to visit this cafe, remember that cats can get incredibly stressed from strangers handling them. At the very least we should respect their choice to roam where they wish when living in a confined space.

Review O Porto dos Gatos - Edit
Como amante de gatos não há como não visitar pelo menos uma vez este lugar. Tanto a oferta de almoços como os lanches são incríveis! Já tive múltiplas refeições e posso afirmar que tudo é tão delicioso. Já para não mencionar o ambiente repleto de gatos e atendimento simpático! Ótimo para uma bela pausa ao fim de semana!

A "must" in Porto - Edit
This is for sure a "temple" for cat lovers but there are many other reasons of interest. The offer of veggie food, snacks, pastry is excellent and the atmosphere as well.

Don't go if you are allergic to cats! - Edit
This is a great cafe with the bonus of having lots of cats to play with. However do not go if you are in a hurry, as the service is very methodical. Not necessarily a bad thing, but not good if you don't have time to sit and relax and enjoy the cats! The food is very good and the cats are very relaxed and welcome to cuddles. But they got sleepy around 13.30, so if you want active cat attention, the earlier, the better (or later, maybe!)
Read moreAnyway, we had burger, soup, sandwich, coffee and cakes, and all were really good. Prices are also reasonable.
Pros: Great food, Cats, Reasonable prices
Cons: Not fast.

Delicious food and there’s Cats 🐈 - Edit
Great place just on the edge of town with friendly staff and great food, this is a restaurant that serves delicious homemade dishes but also looks after cats that have been rescued and are awaiting adoption, giving them a lovely place that’s safe and warm along with loving humans that want to make a fuss of them.

Bad luck - Edit
Had an awful experience in this place. We made a reservation which gave us plenty of time until our next appointment, but since the place got really full we ended up waiting for an hour just to end up being served cold food and even waiting 15 minutes at the counter to pay, which made us very late.
Read moreI've heard from a few people who went there afterwards that they loved it, so I guess that day the staff should've realized that they were letting too many people in and that that would affect the service.

Completely Vegan and CAT FRIENDLY - Edit
Has a good selection of vegan cakes, made there in the café. The scones are delicious. And the cattucinos are super good. They different vegan milks. They serve lunch, and the burghers they have are the best ones I've tried so far. Highly recommend. And, of course, almost forgot, the most important thing is that they have cats lots of them. So it's just heaven. They also have an outside space.

Lovely place! - Edit
My favourite place in Porto! Their toasted sandwiches are super tasty and crunchy. While we were waiting, we were allowed to play with the cats, read a few books, and just relax. Once the sandwiches arrived, we went to their gorgeous terrace where we could soak up some sun as well.

Cute place, good food... And cats! - Edit
The place's interior is super cute. I had the francesinha which was really delicious. The only two small downers were that the fries were not crispy enough for my taste and the lemonade was rather warm, but I asked for ice cubes and that was no problem, so no biggie. Totally recommendable!
Read morePros: Lot of options, also a lot of 'meats'
