TL;DR: If you're doing a cocktail crawl or just need a break…read morefrom wine, it's worth your time. Not something to plan your day around, but a place you'd return to if you lived nearby. Drinks: Thoughtful and well executed, though not mind blowing. Memorable enough, and among the better cocktails we had in Porto without being the best. Service: Really good. Attentive without overdoing it. Vibe: Feels like a neighborhood spot slightly off the main path. You'll walk a darker block or two to get there, but it pays off with a quieter, more local feel. What could be better: Cocktails don't quite reach standout territory. This isn't where you go for your top drink of the trip.

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.

It's been so long, I have very little memory of it other than what I started to write and that didn't look promising.

We were able to snag a reservation without really knowing what to expect and we definitely were not anticipating this level of elegance! We ended up having a three hour dinner because everything felt so comfortable, peaceful, and lovely. I cannot recommend the sliders with quail eggs on top enough. My husband had the Iberian pork and really enjoyed it, and I absolutely loved my octopus. It was probably some of the best I have ever had. For dessert we had cheesecake and it was just as divine. If you want a dinner you won't forget anytime soon, definitely check out this place.

Modern and airy, tables are well spaced, and the decor is very muted and subtle, but rich. The service is amazing. We were a table of 8 and everyone who came to the table was so nice, helpful, friendly and accommodating. I'm sure waiters hate having to take pics of everyone, but ours were fantastic about it. But all that aside, the food is incredible. I had Iberico pork that was so succulent, seared nicely and roasted (I assume). We all shared some steak tartare, tuna tartare and an amazing cheeseboard. Drinks were also on point. I really love it here and have added it to my "must do" list in Porto.

Each of them had their own unique character. I was trying to pair each with the proper food in my mind while tasting each. The White would definitely work with either poultry or fish.

We weren't hungry as we just had breakfast at our hotel, but we risked our gluttonous spirits. and went inside the market which eventually led us to this tasting room (Sala de Prova in literal English). We opted to sit at a window table with a very nice view of Porto. Got our 2009 Tawny and Reserve Ruby ports and we (despite being full) added garlic edamame and oysters (€3 each & ouch). Sipped, snacked and snapped happened. What a view. Ticked off port tasting from our to-do list. Quiet pricey, but I guess they do have to pay for the tower that they were located in.
