Casa Guedes Rooftop

Wandering through the enchanting streets of Porto, my serendipitous journey led me to Casa Guedes Rooftop, a culinary haven hidden amongst the city's alleys. Ascending to the rooftop, I was greeted by a captivating blend of local charm and international allure.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, the rooftop transformed into a magical space. Soft lights adorned the terrace, casting a warm glow on the wooden tables. The ambiance exuded romance, a perfect setting for an intimate evening. Nestled beneath a canopy of stars, the city lights twinkled in harmony with the lively conversations.

Casa Guedes Rooftop presented a menu that bridged local flavors with international flair. Each dish was a symphony of tastes, meticulously crafted to delight the palate. The culinary journey was complemented by an extensive drink selection, featuring local wines and exotic cocktails that elevated the dining experience.

The attentive staff at Casa Guedes Rooftop added a personal touch, guiding us through the menu and ensuring every moment was a celebration. Amidst the enticing aromas and the city's gentle hum, this restaurant became a transcendent experience, seamlessly blending local authenticity with global sophistication. Casa Guedes Rooftop is not just a dining destination; it's a romantic sojourn through Porto's culinary landscape.

Spent a wonderful evening with my family here! I strongly advise trying a place by the window and arriving at sunset! The staff is always smiling and so charismatic. Thank you to the waiters Pedro and Barbara for helping us figure out the menu, with all the patience in the world and lots of laughs! Will 10/10 eat here again.

We were here for Sunday lunch.
Wow, plenty of locals dining here which is always a good sign.
We had a table on the level 1 rooftop and we were served by the cheerful Amanda.
Food was excellent, especially the Porto speciality of Francesinha. This place deserves all the good reviews!

Casa Guedes is a hidden gem! From the outside it looks like a tourist trap but it's three stories of goodness. Great cocktails, good food and excellent service. Try the pork crackling, rissoles and steak sandwich. Stand out cocktails are the Porto sours and the Belgin. It's fun and not to be taken seriously, but quality at the same time x

This was the first place we tried when we got to Porto. Taken up to the top floor, it gave us a great view of Porto below. The atmosphere was really good with a great buzz. Food options were plenty and really affordable too.

We opted for the loaded chips and the chorizo. For started had the empanadas with fish and chicken.

Both were really good.

Very tasty! The braised beef and pork belly were amazing, the shrimps succulent and let's not forget the francesinha!

Having booked my Portuguese vacation months ahead, I came across this place as a local favorite. Turns out it’s a better choice than many traditional Portuguese restaurants which typically have limited menus of five to eight “mains”, some salads or starters and dessert.

Cafe Guedes has all the main entrees you’d want or need if you like Portuguese food but the sandwiches, franchenshinas and starters are the main reason to come. With about 15 choices of roasted pork and cured ham sandwiches with all kinds of awesome toppings like soft sheep cheese and caramelized onions, it’s the real Portuguese experience. We even broke out cardinal traveling rule and came back twice.

The second time we had the shrimp tower. Featuring 10 large jumbo shrimp marinated in garlic and olive oil, it’s three times higher than most shrimp dishes in more traditional restaurants. We also tried a local Portuguese soup that was supposed to have pork liver and other innards but actually tasted like refried beans. (Delicious by the way)

Additionally, the staff is very welcoming despite the cafe style seating and you can sit outside, across the street in the park square or on the rooftop. Promptly seated both times, food was fast and delicious and wait staff is helpful and friendly. Personally, it was my favorite place in all four days. Skip the fancier restaurants and eat here.

The terrace is very nice and the service is great. You can try here some local portuguese dishes. I recommand pimentos padron with salt and the house burger. You can find here the famous franceshina.

Fun local favorite on a rooftop with some views.

Fantastic customer service. We LOVED Anderson.

We recommended the francesinha to our friend and he loved it.

We enjoyed drinks, sandwiches, salads, and the fun atmosphere. Beautiful advised, the music is quite loud, so conversation can be more challenging.

The #14 was exceptionally good with amazing pork. The salad was quite fresh and tasty.

Would definitely recommend.

5 stars for a casual eatery ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A nice meal on the rooftop! We had a cachorro simples, a salpicão sande, and some cider on draft. Everything was very tasty, and the view from the rooftop was lovely. Excellent friendly service as well.

Just had our evening meal and we all had something different. It was absolutely delicious!! The staff was very friendly and the service was great. Next time we come to Porto, we would definitely come back. Great dining experience.

Lovely place! The staff is incredibly friendly and make you feel so welcome!
The suggestions Matheuzinho gave us were just spot on! Fernando is also amazing!
Thanks guys for this great experience!

In LOVE with Guedes’ cooking. Must try Guedes Francesinha (a spicier version of traditional Portuguese sandwich), Pernil com Queijo de Ovelha (Roasted Pork and Soft Sheep Cheese) and Paio de Porco Preto Alentejano (Cured Black pork)
Casa Guedes Rooftop is a full service restaurant. We love this place so much we went back to Casa Guedes Tradicional. Limited seating and Togo. My husband ordered the best sandwich EVER, “Roasted Pork, Cured Black pork and Soft Sheep Cheese” I think #9 and add Soft Sheep Cheese

Got there and the wait looks loooong but we got our table within a respectable 20-25min. Came here just to have a taste of franceshina. We went with the traditional version and shared amongst 4 pax. It was good, not as heavy as we thought. Also had the sandwiches. No14 in particular. Nicely done, again not heavy. Best of all, our server Adson was delightful with a smile and great service. Obrigada!

The lease I can say is that the staff here are second to none!
We had the chicken breast, caperse salad, pork sandwich and Francesinha - which was arguably the best we had in Lisbon.

Thanks for the awesome experience!

Really enjoyed eating here, the staff were great and really friendly and the food was delicious. Would definitely go again!

The francisinha guedes was genuinely delicious. I know it is a local speciality but I still thought the mix of meat, cheese, egg and beer sauce would be heavy but the slightly spicy sauce (I think not included in the tradicional version) kept it light but satisfying.

The simple roast pork sandwich (no cheese, just pork) was sumptuous and moist. I was worried it would be dry but it was great.

Drinks were good, and dessert was OK. I'd definitely go back, and from the footfall it looks like this place is one of the better in the area.

We got there at around 19:00 and got a table outside no issues, but it got quite busy later on.

First meal I had in Porto and it was DELICIOUS. The staff were extremely nice and accommodating. They treated me like VIP!
Would recommend coming here as their menu is also extensive and not expensive at all!

Great food. Would say looks a bit like place for tourist. But the food was very tasty. One of the best squid I had.
This meal 23 euro

A tour guide recommended this restaurant to try a rather spicy Francesinha. I arrived at noon on a Friday, just as they opened. There was no wait and I didn’t need a reservation. The staff was very nice, they were able to sit me (upon my request) on the rooftop. The place eventually, filled up, a mix of tourists and locals on lunch break. I ordered a Francesinha, french fries and a glass of Vinho Verde (Portuguese white wine). Be advised, the dish might take longer to make than others. This place is not a romantic date destination, but their Francesinha is worth the stop, I enjoyed it very much, that dish alone was plenty for 2 people, I took home a doggy bag. Other customers around me were having sandwiches that looked delicious and satisfying. I would recommend it for a filling, tasty lunch.

We came here for a late dinner and love it ! The food was delicious and well presented, the server has super nice and friendly, top service! Made us feel very good, only good vibes. Everything was delicious. 100% recommended! Very happy, definitely coming back.
