It’s easy to travel as a vegan, even in cities that are famous for their love of pork and seafood Porto offers quite a few excellent places for vegans to eat. More and more vegan and vegetarian restaurants are opening in Porto. Let’s hope this trend continues to grow!
I checked out some of Porto’s vegan and vegetarian restaurants. I didn’t go to any meat-serving restaurants that also have vegan options, though there are many listed on Happy Cow. There was no need to go to any of those, because there are enough plant based restaurants in Porto.
I really enjoyed my meal at Vegana. It’s a charming, colourful place to eat, with a friendly and casual service. The menu, which is in both English and Portuguese, includes a big selection of vegan sandwiches, plus salads and drinks. I had the spelt burger which was huge and very satisfying and came with tortilla chips.
Prices are inexpensive. If you’re travelling on a budget, a lot of the sandwiches are priced around €2!
There’s a health store in the same space where you can stock up on vegan cheese, tofu, organic drinks, all sorts of plant based milks, fruits and vegetables and lots more.
The menu includes six different types of vegan patties, with original flavours, that you can have with a side of chips. The burgers are made of soy, tofu, seitan, chickpeas, mushrooms, and leek and potatoes. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).

The Magical City of Porto, Portugal
I am part Portuguese. For all of my life, I’ve been told we were related to Portuguese royalty. Turns out my grandmother had a very wealthy great aunt who left her some money in 1952. It wasn’t a lot, but my grandmother said it certainly helped while they were raising their family. So much for royalty, but a pretty cool story! Needless to say, I was very excited for my first trip ever to... view more
