Taberna Belga

I had been told this is THE best francesinha ever, and wow was that proven true! Absolutely delicious, I really have no words to describe its flavour. Highly recommend it! We went as a family and everyone loved it.

The food was incredible and the beer options were phenomenal!! The francesinha was really awesome and I highly recommend the Kwak (beer). The servers were helpful and efficient and the atmosphere was very nice.

The best Francesinha in Portugal (automatically in the world) and a very nice menu of good beers. Of course, wait for find a long queue when got there. Have patience because it worth! And go hungry!

Delicious Francesinha, and a variety of beers coupled with excellent service and ambience. Will visit again!

Great food we ordered one vegetarian and one meat francesinha both tasted delicious, the steak was very good. Friendly staff when they realized that the sauce on my plate was almost done but I still got the sandwich they proposed to bring more of it. The beer recommendation was also very good.

The Francesinhas is very tasty. The souce was perfect.
They have many types of beers, we tried 2 of them that were very good

Taberna Belga in my opinion serves the best francesinha in Portugal, surpassing all others.

Taberna Belga has two locations, Taberna Belga 1 and Taberna Belga 2, which are located a short distance apart. Both restaurants are owned by the same proprietor and offer the same high-quality Francesinha

The quality of the food is exceptional, with both the regular and vegetarian options being incredibly flavorful. I personally find myself choosing the vegetarian option more often, as it has a smooth texture. The sauce is the standout component, as it is thick, spicy, and has a delightful color.

The francesinha is large, and with the accompanying French fries, it can be difficult to finish in one sitting. However, it is worth noting that you can request a takeout box and take the remainder home, and the price difference is not significant. As an alternative you can just request an half instead of the full one.

Taberna Belga also boasts a great selection of beers, with most being from Belgium, but also from other countries.

The staff are friendly and efficient, ensuring that diners are well taken care of.

It's important to note that the restaurant can be quite loud inside, which can be uncomfortable for some. During the summer, they open the outdoor seating area, which offers a more relaxed atmosphere.

Finally, I would recommend visiting Taberna Belga before 7:30 pm, as it gets extremely busy and you may need to wait for a table. During the week, it's usually not as crowded, but weekends are always busy, and the waiting time can range from 10 minutes to an hour, depending on the time and size of your group. Despite this, I believe the wait is worth it, as the francesinha from Taberna Belga is a true ambassador of Portuguese cuisine.

The delectable Francesinhas, along with the friendly staff, vast beer selection, make this restaurant a must-visit in Braga. With the perfect balance of taste and quality, the Francesinhas at Taberna Belga are truly one of a kind. Whether you're a local or a tourist, you're sure to have a memorable dining experience at this fantastic restaurant.

Make sure to come here as early as possible. There’s always a queue. But it’s always worth the wait. The service is good, and the food is something that i could say ONE OF THE BEST FRANCESINHAS ever. If you’re visiting Braga or Guimarães you shouldn’t miss this place!

best damn francesinha in Portugal, the sauce is insanely good and the price is great too. the beers go perfect with eating francesinha and their selection is tasty and varied. came 2 hours one way from Coimbra just for dinner, worth it.

This is the best francesinha! Nothing more you can say. The prices are very reasonable. The service is fast after you get it. The staff is quick and professional. The crazy huge amount of beer options adds a lot to the experience. The only downside is the waiting time. If you come friday or saturday you will have at least 30min waiting time.
100% worth coming

I went 2 weeks ago with a Portuguese friend from Lisbon. This is a really nice place. Modern, clean and busy for a midweek lunch. Best of all was the amazing Franceshina. My friend tells me it was the best he has even eaten. Delicious. They also sell great beers. As I now live in Braga I will be going back

The best francesinha in Braga and I love it every time

It's an must for us whenever we are near Braga, for me the best francesinha you can have. I find that the most simple beers provide the best taste not to take over the meal.

Amazing Francesinha sandwich and great beer selection. Service was friendly and offered water for our dog! He loves the fries!

One of the places to visit if you are visiting the city of Braga and like to eat. It has one of the best if not the best francesinha I've ever had. The menu has a good range of other food and drinks with lots of beers. Dessert options are also varied and very delicious. It tends to be very crowded at meal times and you may have to wait in line, as it does not accept reservations.

The francesinhas are incredible. Lives up to the expectation. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They normally have a line, so I recommend coming in early.

Hands down the best place to have a francesinha. I have tried them all from Porto to Lisbon to Barcelos to Algarve this place is simply a must. Not only are their francesinhas top notch, their natas to ceu are just magical. They clearly came from heaven. Not only do you leave happy, you also leave with a few extra pounds of deliciousness.

This is the best francesinha in all Portugal! They also have a vegetarian option that is very good. The price range is very okay. The downside is that the qeue is quite big. Go without a rush. Great good, great service, great beers.

The best francesinha ever! Can't go wrong here. The place is newly renovated, modern and clean. The staff was friendly and quick. Food was amazing. Such a popular place in the area so you will definitely have a wait to get in and a wait for the food. But it's definitely worth it! Would go back over and over.

The best francesinha in the country!

Definitely, the best fracesinha in the country is here, in Braga (here, at Taberna Belga and also at Real Taberna, both very similar).

I've already had the pleasure of trying some in Porto, where they originally came from, and, although there's a lot of quality in some places, I highly recommend you to try this one. It's different (sweeter) and, for me, better. The sauce is sensational.

Nothing better than having a francesinha dinner with friends or as a couple and a good dark beer. There are more menus, but their expertise is definitely francesinha.
