Skip the tourist menus. This is how Porto actually eats. Join a small group (max 6–8) and explore traditional tascos (local taverns), where recipes, prices, and habits are still shaped by the people who live here not by trends.
You’ll taste a full range of local food: meats, cheeses, seafood, tinned fish, street food, and classic Porto dishes, paired with local drinks along the way. Come hungry. You’ll leave full and with a much better understanding of what “Portuguese food” really means in Porto.
Most food tours focus on what visitors expect but we focus on what’s actually here. That means places that existed before tourism, food people still eat in their daily lives and honest conversations about what’s changing in the city. No performances and no staged “authenticity.” Just the city as it is.
What you’ll experience
- Visit 5–6 traditional taverns (tascos)
- Taste a wide variety of local foods (enough for a full meal)
- Learn how Porto’s food culture differs from the rest of Portugal
- Discover small, independent businesses
- Get local tips for the rest of your stay
