Vegan Francesinha 🌿 - Edit
Santa Francesinha tem duas opções 100% veganas, uma francesinha e um beyond burger em bolo do caco.
Read moreComi a francesinha e só lhe faltou incluir batata frita (apenas uma francesinha de carne tem direito a batata incluída, todas as outras é um extra), vem muito bem servida.
O "queijo" derretido, o molho e todos os recheios com um sabor decadente de bom e picante na medida certa! Matou o desejo e saudade de uma boa Francesinha, com o bónus de ser vegan 💚
Pros: Sabores deliciosos, Bom queijo vegetal, Staff Simpático e prestável
Cons: Faltou incluir batatas

Buenísima la francesinha vegana - Edit
Se nota que se han currado la elaboración. Tanto el seitán como el queso y la salchichas vegana son muy buenos. Me ha encantado.

Nice vegan Francesinha - Edit
One vegan option among lots of typical versions of francesinhas. The vegan one was made of seitan, vegan chorizo and sausages, tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini, and lots of vegan cheese, served with a large portion of French fries. The salsa was really good. The service was quite slow.

Yummy vegan francesinha in Porto - Edit
The vegan francesinha from here is pretty good!
Read moreThey also have a vegan beyond burger.
Not a huge choice but a nice place to go to try a Portuguese classic, especially if you’re travelling with non-vegans.

Francesinha vegan - Edit
Santa Francesinha é um restaurante vegan no Porto.
Read moreTêm duas opções vegan: a Francesinha 100% vegan e o burguer vegan “beyond meat”.
Pedi a francesinha 100% vegan, que era bastante boa, mas custa 13,90€ e não vem com batatas fritas. Porém, as batatas não são necessárias pois a própria francesinha por si só, já enche.
Contudo, o tempo de espera é bastante longo e eles não têm nenhum sobremesa vegan como opção no menu.
Pros: Opção 100% vegan, Porção grande
Cons: Tempo de espera , Não há sobremesas vegan

underwhelming - Edit
the lowest and most expensive on my francesinha rating!! not worth the visit as a vegan. its one of those renditions that adds vegetables just because its vegan but then it was nothing to do with a francesinha. in general just wasnt tasty or special, the sauce also finished quickly. fries not included and it was already 13€ theres not even vegan dessert, there are so much better places to go!!!

Vegan francesinha - Edit
There is 1 vegan option for the burger and 1 for the francesinha, with a lot of ingredients, it was very nice having a francesinha without any animal products 🥰
Read moreThey could add some vegan desserts though, that would be great!
Be careful, you need to book, or go in at 12:00 because in 5min you can lose your spot! It’s always full there

Very good food but long wait times - Edit
The vegan franceshina was really good, but it took us 30mins to be seated, and another hour before the food arrived. The upstairs area was also extremely loud. Overall the food was great, but make sure you have time when going there.

Pretty good - Edit
The Francesinha was fairly tasty, larger and more filling than it appeared. It was a bit stodgy, and the real kicker was it arrived almost cold.
Read moreSo grand, nice but would have been better hot. Have had better vegan francesinha in Faro.

Pros: Nice square , Good service

Heavy food - Edit
Don’t expect to feel energized and light and ready to tackle the day after this meal. It’s a traditional sandwich which is really cool to be able to try the local food and it’s very filling. The french fries were a huge portion but not crispy. The staff was friendly and the location was nice. They also offer a betting burger if you don’t want to try a francesinha, but nothing else

I finally tried the famous "francesinha" (vegan)! - Edit
The waiter service was a little off, but the vegan francesinha was wonderful! Juicy, with a perfect mix of flavors. We went (my husband and I) with a non-vegan couple who tried the traditional version. We all left very happy! :-)
Read morePros: the flavor is exceptional!, clean restroom, location
Cons: price, no ambience

Yes, vegan francesinha! - Edit
The vegan francesinha is good, and some in my group claimed it to be better than the meat-version (because less heavy). Though, the place itself is not very cozy. Next to the francesinha is only one more vegan option on the menu, a burger. Staff is friendly

Amazing Vegan Francesinha - Edit
We've loved the fact that they put effort in having stapple vegan ingredients (in some places the cheese is removed and no vegan cheese is added as a replacement, for instance).

Awesome vegan Francesinha! - Edit
The place offers two vegan options:
Read more1. Vegan Francesinha - delicious, you can feel it was designed with some passion, not only to be an option for vegans (they use a few meat alternatives in this dish). However it costs 15€ which is quite a lot for Francesinha.
2. Well known Beyond Burger
I had been there for some time and I saw that Vegan Francesinha was chosen frequently, so I hope you will extend vegan menu in the future😉
Pros: Awesome francesinha , Beyond burger for francesinha sceptics
Cons: Only 2 vegan options
