The trees boggle my mind and I enjoy sitting here with a beer, a good book, thinking about how the trees are so huge on top of a roof... The 360 degree view is stunning with Torre dos Clérigos on one side, University of Porto, and old buildings on the remainder. Kids, dogs, old and young will enjoy this stop. Don't expect to get an especially warm welcome here. After coming here an endless amount of times, I have yet to receive warmth. Thankfully this place is so cool my ego is quick to recover. :) A must do to grab alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks with a view.

I was so excited to go to Base after doing a ton of research online but as our luck would have it, it poured rain the whole time we were in Porto.

I thought the music was good, but wasn't super-inspiring, but a lot of people there seemed to enjoy it a lot. There are plenty of spaces to sit upstairs and plenty of space to dance downstairs. Multiple bars available; I especially like how the main downstairs bar is recessed away from the two dance floors, so that it's not super loud there; easier to order drinks and such. €5 cover charge on a weekend night. Like most bars/clubs there, smoking is permitted. Bathrooms: About normal for a night club. Could be a tad cleaner, but given out late it was, they were pretty decent, and didn't have any lines.

But by far our favorite evening was spent on the banks of the Duro river, drinking wine and ordering small plates of food at Wine Quay Bar. We got really lucky to get a primo spot overlooking the Douro at the wine bar; it was picture perfect. With the help of the server we ordered a Douro Valley wine - a dry, fruity white. It was tastilicious. This place had an all appetizer menu -- like tapas in Spain. We had olives, a sublime soft sheep's milk cheese, bread, sardines in tomato sauce and pigs feet ... indescribably succulent, all of it. This place is a no-brainer for some of the most amazing food and wine in one of the most beautiful places one could enjoy them.

Make your way to the end and walk down the flight and stairs... and be prepared to be wowed by the beautiful basement. Lovely pine wood furnishing, walls of wines, very comfortable chair.

It's one of those incredibly soulful spots that I feel are, low-key, becoming extinct in big cities, where everything is starting to look homogenized. We queued for about 15 minutes and grabbed seats at the bar. This was with awful weather and before peak tourist season, so I imagine the lines can get quite long. Pro tip: don't head inside just because you see someone leave. I made that mistake and was told to wait for someone to call me over. The people working here have zero sense of urgency, and that's part of the magic. You're in Portugal. Relax. The cachorrinhos were great, but we also had a steak sandwich that was phenomenal. Think greasy street food in a compact, hole-in-the-wall spot. Pair it with a beer and fries, and you've got the perfect lunch. They take cards!
