Majestic Cafe in Porto

"Dine like a VIP at this opulent cafe that takes its style inspiration from the Belle Epoque era– think 18th-century opulence with art nouveau elements. It’s not just the decor that’s VIP here though, it’s the coffee too. On the menu, try some coffee, tea, or Portuguese bakery items, as well as wines and an extensive lunch menu. There really is something for everyone here."
