Yes, there is a line anytime they are open, which is the only bad news I found here. The good news starts there as the line moves quickly. The staff watches the line for two people and moves past the four and five-person parties. The food is excellent. It is NOT classic Portuguese fare, but if you want to brunch at almost anytime, this is your place. The staff speaks English and will tolerate your bad attempt at Portuguese Eggs are done to order and done right. The Bloody Mary is SPICY.

The Acai bowl is wonderful, as is the yogurt bowl.

Fresh flavors and something for everyone from the hearty bacon breakfaster to the fruity acai bowl fan. The place is so cute and stylish, the staff and owners are great and I love that they have outdoor seating too.

...Zenith: 10/10 - perfectly sweet Mojito: 8/10 - a little less sweet than I like but my boyfriend loved it Food: Dulce de Leche - as a lover of tres leches this was absolutely amazing to me. It is very sweet but still didn't feel too...

The menu was so expansive, we decided to go here twice lol. Service was exceptional both visits - it is important to note that they do cash only (there is an ATM across the street, if needed). Food-wise, we went savory the first time and sweet the next. This is completely based on our preferences, but here's how we rated everything, in order: Zenith Toast (an absolute must, we liked it more than francesinha) - 5/5 Peanut butter pancakes - 4.5/5 Croissant Carbonara - 4.

5/5 Dulce de Leche pancakes - 4/5 Chicken Taco - 3.75/5 Jackfruit Chili Taco - 3.5/5 If you are big into cocktails, this is the brunch spot for you. I had their bramble (gin with mixed berries and juice), and it was incredible....

I ordered the mixed berry French toast and it just looked like the topping were thrown on the French toast. The toast itself had no flavor also. Waste of 6.5 euros

Best french toast I have ever had. The toast was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The fresh fruit on top with whipped cream made it delicious with crispy almonds. Also ordered the vegan toast which was...

exceptional too. The avocado was fresh and I loved the sun dried tomatoes that came with the toast. Cherry tomatoes and mushrooms were fresh and added flavor. You have to put them all on each toast bite to get the full taste affect. Latte was creamy and made just right with a cute design on it. Wouldn't have found this place without yelp. Free WiFi too which I am using now oto write review. Service was also exceptional and the waiter Sergio explained all the menu items to us.

There is a reason for how crazy busy this place is!!! Amazing brunch spot!!! They quickly seated the five of us! Expansive menu! They have the drinks and the food! The wait staff is efficient and fast, they were constantly running back and forth! We started with the pitcher of sangria which was really tasty! I had the eggs benedict and it was also really good. Greenery all around inside with really good music playing! They look like they were having a good time at work! Putting this place on our list, going to try the other locations when we travel!

Equana D.

Love the vibe here!! I experienced fantastic service and had only a short wait for my order. Love these drink options like Salted Caramel Iced Latte and Strawberry Matcha which are super hard to find in Porto. On the other hand, I wasn't exactly thrilled about non-brunch meal options, which I felt were a bit too experimental for my taste.

Jess M.

This is a place I wanted to go back every day while we visited Portugal. My husband wouldn't let me, but I guess that made it more special. The vibe here was relaxed. The music was pleasant and even my daughter had a great time dancing along and watching the staff put together the food. We never had to wait long for a meal or drinks and everything was so clean and delicious

allegedly: called itself eggs Benedict with smoked salmon.

Colei O.

Cool vibes, cold eggs. We sat outside cute setup, chill weather, very I'm on holiday. The place is aesthetically cool, I'll give them that. But I waited forever for my food. Maybe because I'm American? Big mistake. Huge. I would've ignored the no-tipping thing and thrown them a sack of cash. Too late now. Eggs Benedict came out cold. No runny yolk, just an egg jelly situation on top of what was basically avocado toast. Hollandaise? No flavor. My latte was good... I think? I blacked out and chugged it before the food even came. All the waiters looked like the same tattooed guy copy-pasted. My bestie liked his Shakshuka...it was salsa and eggs with bread in a frying pan. There are better spots where Americans are treated like royalty. Don't ask me where. I'm still looking.

Fabulous food, service, ambiance... might be why it is always busy when you walk by. You can probably be sat quite quickly in the basement or indoor area. There is often enough seating in the warmer season outdoors but you will probably need to wait for a table. I don't imagine it would be too extremely long though (20 minutes as a guess more during prime eating hours). I don't suggest larger groups outside. Outdoor seating is in two-person tables so you will have to wait for just the perfect equation of people to leave to push several tables together. Their Zenith Burger (vegan) is quite tasty (Burger vegan "Beyond Meat", vegan cheese, vegan mayo, onion, salad, tomato). Doesn't stay on the bun too well since there are so many ingredients, I will keep trying, don't worry and I know I will conquer this goal someday, keeping the burger all together. High food aspirations. Friends got the Zenith Pancakes and the Eggs Zenith. They have also had several things on the menu in previous visits and they had high reviews. Reality, you will probably like what you order. Unique options so lots to try. Note: They wouldn't split checks for us. I don't know if this is something you have to address prior to ordering OR if this is a rule of Zenith. Excellent food spot and worth a try. I want to highlight how lovely our server was. Very personable, very friendly, and spot on his game.

Eggs Zenith, added chicken and mushrooms

Mel N.

I loved the ambience inside. There are a bunch of neon signs with cute sayings and a garden inside enclosed in glass! Food was great and the portions were huge! I still felt light and not greasy by the end of it all. You really can't go wrong with any of the options. I did get the red velvet latte, which did taste like red velvet, but also had hints of beets. So if you don't like the taste of beets, I suggest getting a different drink! The staff inside were so friendly and helped us move our luggage inside when it was pouring rain.

Delicious food and Drink. Super friendly staff. Amazing spot to spend your morning. Very cool little spot.

Jessica U.

Everything was absolutely fantastic. Drinks: Port Zenith: 10/10 - perfectly sweet Mojito: 8/10 - a little less sweet than I like but my boyfriend loved it Food: Dulce de Leche - as a lover of tres leches this was absolutely amazing to me. It is very sweet but still didn't feel too sweet for breakfast. 10/10 Eggs Benedict: 9/10. Flavorful. I don't like that it was deconstructed but that's a minor flaw. Ambiance: Super cute space but the best part is the area

Aparna B.

A popular spot with many locations including Lisbon, Barcelona and other cities in the Iberian Peninsula. We arrived in Porto so early and before our day of exploring we needed some fuel. Zenith is a popular spot, but has a lot of vegan and vegetarian options for brunch and lunch. There were a ton of people there, but plenty of tables outside so we opted to sit outside. The service was so friendly! I ordered a mango mimosa and my husband ordered one of their ginger spritz cocktails. I opted for one of their Benedict, but without the meat. Instead, they offered some mushrooms for me and I welcomed that! My husband ordered one of their salad bowls that included eggs and tofu so we were both so happy and full! Would recommend!

Stephanie G.

This brunch spot deserves a 10/10. We consistently came here during our trip (Lisbon and Porto). Each meal we got did not disappoint. Here at the Porto location we got great service except for once. Unfortunately the waiter was not very friendly but others made up for that shortcoming! It's so hard to speak about which breakfast was my favorite because they all were great. The only one that did feel lack luster was the breakfast sandwich; I just felt it was missing a kick to it from a sauce. Their Porto Zenith was amazing! The serving size of the drink was great! They have so many great breakfast options that we each were ordering two off the menu so we could try and taste it all. I love the area because it's quiet but you still get a good amount of foot traffic. They have indoor and outdoor seating but the weather is just perfect that you have to sit outside. Definitely make a stop and check this place out!

Jared E.

This place was amazing and a absolute treasure. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, some of the best eggs and banana bread I have ever had. The banana bread was not overly sweet and the perfect balance of flavors. The eggs were seasoned to perfection and my mojito was delicious. I highly recommend this place if you are visiting porto. I wish brunch places were more like this in the states. The ambiance is so pure and beautiful. Even though the music is playing and it's lively, it's very easy to have a conversation with one another and not be plagued with hearing the conversation of others. The Mrs. and I will visit here again because there was so many things in the menu we wanted but couldn't get. We are leaving stuffed and happy.

Jon B.

Great vibe here. Had the Zenith Eggs with spinach and mushrooms. Was pretty good but not my favorite. I shoulda tried the peanut butter pancakes. Those look yummy. Maybe tomorrow.

Wonderful brunch at Zenith. I had the shakshuka and the banana bread with almond yogurt and fruit. Both were excellent. Husband had the Zenith pancakes, which he felt were a bit too "bready" but he liked them nevertheless. This restaurant was extremely busy! And for good reason. The service was excellent. We ate outside, which was lovely, but the inside of the restaurant looks awesome. This is also an excellent option for non-dairy/dairy allergy people, like myself. read more

Expect long lines and mediocre brunch food here. If you've been to Melbourne or really anywhere in North America - this place will pale in comparison. Had the eggs Bennie - poached eggs were hard and the dish was lack lustre. Enjoyed the turkey bacon and fresh juice of the day. Coffee was decent, too!! Three stars for the vibe of the restaurant. You're better off saving your valuable time in Porto and grabbing a more simple breakfast elsewhere. read more

Awesome, contemporary American style brunch spot. It's a large restaurant with lots of outdoor seating, yet it was completely full when we popped in for breakfast. Wait was only about 10 minutes, and we were sat at a shared table with two girls. I ordered the shakshuka and fresh orange juice -- so good!! I ate every last bit. I love stumbling across these types of restaurants while in Europe because at some point, we're always craving a hearty breakfast after eating so many pastries/bread for breakfast. Highly recommend this spot for breakfast if you're spending a few nights in Porto. read more

Overpriced for mediocre attempts at brunch-style dishes. Coffees are embarrassing and bacon is undercooked (think translucent undercooked) - if bacon is a measure of anything, then this would be unacceptable. If you must, come on weekdays instead when there'll be less of a queue and food might be less shoddy too. read more

This place is really overrated. We were seated really quickly and ordered after a couple of minutes. We were informed that the Shakshuka would take a little longer to prepare. We ended up waiting over 50 minutes for our food. We were given attitude from the staff when we asked for an update on when our food would be ready after having waited 45 minutes already. The shakshuka that arrived was very watery. The egg in it was half over cooked and half undercooked as well as under seasoned. For waiting for so long I expected the food to be better. The poached eggs toast was also very bland. The menu looks appetizing but we left upset and frustrated at not only the quality of the food but also the lack of respect from the staff. read more

Zenith has got a great location. It's in a perfect spot and has great outdoor seating. I would say there food is good but definitely more of a hyped spot. It's kinda in the tourtisty part of Porto but just hidden enough that one would think they've hit the jackpot of little brunch cafes. I think that their food and coffee is just too sweet. I would recommend Cubik over this place. And it's just a short walk away with no wait AND better food for a better price. Save yourself the time and go somewhere better. read more

I wish there was a way to separate service from food when giving a star rating. The food was delicious - we were a party of 4 and everyone enjoyed their dishes immensely. As far as service and atmosphere, well... this cafe has outside and inside seating. Upon arrival we were told we can sit either inside or outside and since outside was faster, we can just grab the next available table. After waiting 30 minutes and ready to grab a table we were told that as of now they no longer serve food outside. Literally now. Starting with us. After some more time We were sat at a communal table inside, spread around the table. What a nice way to spend some family time... I do have to say the waitress we ended up having was very sweet and tried her best. This place definitely has potential but they are so not there yet. They need to spend more time training their staff and for most of them it wouldn't hurt to smile once in a while either... read more

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.

Awesome spot for sunset cocktails…read more Highlights: - Small rooftop with a few tables outside with a great view of the river and sunset - Selection of cocktails and wine--even have a port tasting flight if you'd like - I got a spritz and some sparkling green wine. - Homemade boozy popsicles: sounded so good, wish I would've gotten one on a warm day. - Menu of some snacks if you're hungry - Jazz music playing on the speakers--some nights (believe it's Thursday) it's live music - When you're ready for your bill, you pay inside so you don't have to wait for the waitress. Lowlights: - Very hard to find. From the main street it's up a small alleyway halfway up the stairs by a building under construction. Apple maps did not have it right and we came from the top of the hill down and could not find it. Switched to Google maps and saw it was up the stairs. - Only 1 waitress so hard to get a hold of her. - Make a reservation--we did just in case but didn't think we really needed them. All tables outside were booked the day we went. Enjoyed the sunset here--once we got there.

During the evening and night it's a super cool place where you can try to learn kizomba, drink good alcohol, have fun with friends. The only small thing is - there's not too much space (you need to hurry to get sit places if you need them). I recommend for 1st date - because of modern design, romantic view and good (mostly) portuguese music BUT not fado.

Nothing stood out and because I'm writing this several months late, I can't remember if anything was good. It wasn't bad, but honestly at this point I can't remember.

EVERYONE was speaking English, so that was helpful. Diogo our server was friendly, attentive, and helpful. We will be back again for sure! Eat here!

Zenith in Porto came highly recommended, so I had high expectations. Unfortunately, my experience didn't live up to the hype. The place was overcrowded to the point of being uncomfortable--tables were crammed together with virtually no space to move. The person behind me was seated at a table belonging to the restaurant next door, but we were so tightly packed that we kept bumping into each other and her hair was constantly brushing against me. The situation outside was also frustrating. Several times, unhoused individuals came into the private outdoor seating area and lingered around diners' tables. While I have empathy for their circumstances, it was unsettling that the staff noticed and did nothing to intervene or maintain a basic level of comfort for guests. As for the food, it was unfortunately just as disappointing. I ordered the avocado toast with poached eggs and salmon. Oddly, the salmon was cooked--not smoked as is typically expected for this kind of dish--and there was no indication on the menu that it would be prepared this way. The bread was so tough I could barely cut through it without shaking the entire table. My fiancé had the pancakes, which sounded great on paper, but came layered with cream between each one. The result was overly rich and hard to finish. Even the sangria missed the mark, tasting overwhelmingly of vanilla, which threw off the balance entirely. Overall, the experience felt chaotic and underwhelming. With so many fantastic places to eat in Porto, I would recommend skipping Zenith in favor of somewhere less crowded and more thoughtfully executed. read more

Zenith Café offers a modern, chic atmosphere with a clean, laid-back vibe that makes it an inviting spot for breakfast or brunch. The space is beautifully designed with neutral tones, warm lighting, and plenty of greenery, creating a relaxing ambiance that feels reminiscent of a rainforest-inspired café. The servers were pleasant, attentive, and engaging, adding to the overall welcoming experience. The menu features a variety of healthy options, and everything is prepared fresh to order. I ordered the açaí bowl and really enjoyed the addition of passion fruit, which added a bright, tangy contrast to the natural sweetness. My only critique is that I would have preferred the bowl to be a bit more frozen, as it had a smoother, smoothie-like consistency by the time it reached the table. I also tried the toast with poached eggs. The eggs were cooked well, but as they cooled, I noticed a lingering vinegar aftertaste that wasn't particularly appealing to me. That said, the dish was otherwise well-prepared. The entire breakfast experience was relaxed and enjoyable. We arrived around 9:30 a.m., which seemed to be the perfect time, as the café became quite busy shortly afterward and a line had formed by the time we left. Both indoor and outdoor seating are available, giving guests options depending on the weather and their preference. Overall, Zenith is a stylish and comfortable breakfast spot with fresh food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'd happily return to try more of the menu. read more

My recent brunch experience at Zenith Brunch and Cocktails in Porto was nothing short of delightful. From the moment I stepped in, the cozy atmosphere and inviting aroma set the stage for a fantastic meal. I opted for the Shakshuka, and it exceeded my expectations. The perfect blend of flavors and the hearty portions made it an absolute treat. What made it even better was the great price - a satisfying meal without breaking the bank. Seating was quick and efficient, and the staff were attentive and friendly throughout. The quick service ensured I didn't have to wait long to dive into my delicious meal. If you find yourself in Porto and craving a filling, reasonably priced brunch, Zenith is the place to be. I wholeheartedly recommend trying their Shakshuka - a culinary delight that will leave your taste buds singing. I'm looking forward to my next visit! read more

We discovered the place when traveling to Porto, looking for a nice place to have breakfast early in the morning. We quickly saw people forming a line in front of the place, which always seems like a good omen. The staff is very welcoming and helpful, and the food is actually pretty good as well. read more

If the place is busy and you have to wait longer there is always a reason, the food is simply the best and well worth it the waiting although we haven't waited longer 30 minutes it's a fairly reasonable time. The food it's from the heart and well presented. Well done :) highly recommend read more
