Uma Experiência Vegan Inesquecível: Sabor, Ambiente e Música em Perfeição - Edit
"Que lugar incrível! Um verdadeiro paraíso vegan. O ambiente é super acolhedor, com uma decoração encantadora que combina perfeitamente com a música de blues suave que cria uma atmosfera relaxante e única. A pastelaria é simplesmente de outro mundo, com uma qualidade que se nota em cada detalhe, e a comida é uma verdadeira obra-prima – fresca, saborosa e feita com muito carinho. Os ovos vegan são um espetáculo à parte, de tão saborosos que são! Recomendo a todos que procuram uma experiência gastronómica memorável. Com certeza, um espaço que conquista a alma e o paladar."

Uau, muito obrigada por esta partilha tão especial! 💛 Ler as tuas palavras encheu-nos o coração. Criar uma experiência inesquecível, que envolva todos os sentidos — do sabor à música — é exatamente o que nos move todos os dias. Saber que os nossos “ovos” vegan e as natas conquistaram o teu paladar é a melhor recompensa. Volta sempre que quiseres, a casa é tua! 🌱

Great vegan restaurant - Edit
I came here to check it out and ended up getting a Nutella croissant and a latte. The menu seemed kinda scarey cas it had all these meat names.. but I know its fully vegan. Im gonna come back and try some real food but also more pastries. One of my favorite parts was its super close to the botanical gardens and I got to go for a walk after and was so beautiful there
Read morePros: Good vegan food, Close to crystal gardens, Yum
APADOCA
Thank you so much for stopping by and for your kind words! 💛 We get it — the menu can sound a bit wild with all those “meaty” names, but we promise it’s all 100% plant-based! Just a bit of fun with the naming 😄 So glad you loved the Nutella croissant and latte — and got to enjoy a beautiful walk at the gardens after. Come back soon, there’s lots more sweet and savoury goodness waiting for you! 🌿

Less variety than one year ago - Edit
Last year I loved this place as they had many portuguese treats made plant-based. Today they hadn‘t milfolhas among others. They had mostly filled croissants, which wasn‘t what we were looking for 🥲. Still, it was ok.

Hello! First of all, thank you so much for coming back to Apadoca and for sharing your experience. 💛 We’re sorry to hear the variety wasn’t quite what you were hoping for this time — we totally understand missing some of the Portuguese plant-based classics Our menu shifts with the seasons and our handmade production, but feedback like yours truly matters, and we’ll pass it along to our kitchen team. We hope to surprise you next time with more treats that warm your heart (and your taste buds!) 🌱

Welcoming and friendly, delicious food - Edit
We decided to check out the place since I am vegan and was visiting Porto. I wanted to get some pastries like croissants, but ended up eating a vegan Portuguese stew which was delicious! They had a few different options of vegan traditional Portuguese dishes which I really like as someone who often can't eat traditional dishes when I travel. We also bought some croissants and they were delicious. They also had traditional Portuguese pastry Nata which I unfortunately did not try as well as some other yummy looking pastries. I definitely recommend this place if you are visiting Porto and are vegan or just want to try out a place with a nice atmosphere and nice staff. We talked to the owner/one of the owners(?) a bit afterwards and she informed us about some of the dishes. Everyone was very nice and I can't recommend this place more!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! 💛 We're truly happy to know you found in Apadoca a space where you could enjoy traditional Portuguese flavours — fully vegan and made with love.

More than an amazing bakery - Edit
Padoca is more than just an amazing bakery – it’s a place full of flavor and kindness! The food is absolutely delicious, made with care and dedication, and the service is impeccable. They are true professionals, but above all, wonderful people!
Read moreI was lucky to experience their generosity when they kindly donated to a charity event for a non-profit animal organization. Without hesitation, they stepped up to help, showing that success is also about kindness and community support. In a world where every act of generosity counts, their gesture made all the difference.
They truly deserve all the success and recognition! If you’re looking for great food and a warm atmosphere, I highly recommend them. 💛🐾
APADOCA
Wow… Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such beautiful words! 💛 Knowing that our food and space brought you joy already fills us with gratitude — but having our mission to support causes we care about, like animal welfare, acknowledged so kindly is truly touching. We truly believe that cooking with love and acting with compassion go hand in hand. Thank you for being part of this special community. We hope to welcome you back soon — this is your home too! 🌱

Very pricey and not amazing - Edit
Very friendly service but the food itself was very pricey (all breakfast dishes 15€) and the food was rather disappointing. The French toast was very sour because of the sour berries, the eggs didn't taste at all like eggs.
Read moreBe aware: the summer menu is different then the winter menu (e.g. no eggs Benedict during winter period).
Pros: Friendly service
Cons: Pricey, Food not amazingly tasting

Regarding pricing, our prices are set and reflect the use of high-quality, fresh, and sustainable ingredients. We also offer a range of options at different price points, including more affordable dishes to suit various preferences.
As for the flavors, we truly appreciate your input and will take it into account for future improvements. Our recipes are designed to highlight natural and authentic flavors, but we understand that taste is subjective.
