Located across from the main train station (Sao Bento) in downtown Porto, the average tourist might…read moregive this little place a miss based on looks and location. That would be a mistake, for it's truly a rough gem, like so much of Porto itself. We stopped here regularly during our stay because of quality and price, surprisingly good on both counts. The hamburger lovers in my group came back for more, and there are a number of deals with burgers and bevvies, as pictured on the facade of the cafe. I stuck mostly to salads and an amazingly simple but delicious side of black eyed peas. Get the black eyed peas - if you're a legume lover like me, you'll be in heaven! Totally decent food, efficient and conscientious service without attitude, the setting is simple with mainly outdoor seating. Inside the cafe it is cramped and I would not recommend the washroom - use the one at the train station instead! Location is central to many tourist sites including the tourist office, very convenient for those with limited mobility, or those who are simply tired of walking uphill. Recommended!

I visited Com Cuore during my December 2024 trip to Porto after hearing about a 100% gluten-free…read morecafe, and I was certainly excited to check this place out, it is located a short walk away from São Bento railway station, although it is rather well-hidden, I ended up having to go up a set of steps from where Apple Maps told me the location was to find it - I do think having some sort of sign on the main street could help people find this place and help increase footfall for sure. They do operate on a cash-only model, which is a big negative for me, they direct people to use a nearby ATM. I usually refuse to pay cash, but after making an effort to find this place and spending some time, I decided to bite the bullet. It was unfortunate that they were cash only as this meant I spent less than I would have done if they had card payments - Come on, who doesn't take cards in 2024? The interior is small and fairly cramped, and the door did seem to lock, it didn't feel too welcoming with people struggling to get inside while I was eating my food. The menu was impressive and extensive, and most of it was priced reasonably, I ended up going for a sandwich which had ham, German sausage and cheese - The value was certainly really good, however. I also ordered some fries however, I never received them. I was not charged for them, so it is likely my waiter wasn't paying attention when taking my order. I noticed how the menu also mentioned a charge for cutlery - which seemed bizarre, and I'd love some clarification on this - surely they can't charge you for something to eat your food within a sit-down cafe? I found my sandwich to be quite dry. While the meats were decent, though not exceptional in quality, they would just slide off the bread, which was strange considering how dry the sandwich itself was. 3* - The prices are affordable, and the gluten-free options are extensive. However, the overall food quality is just okay. Combined with issues like the atmosphere inside the cafe and the fact that it's cash-only, I wouldn't be in a hurry to return if I visit Porto again. That said, I wouldn't be against giving it another try either.

I was also grateful for the extensive gluten free options on the menu as a celiac traveler, but was disappointed in the service, atmosphere, and general quality of the food upon my visits.

Was also a bit hard to find as it's up a staircase and on the inside of a plaza compared to the address that appears publicly, but has a cute little outdoor patio once found!
