À da Maria

Évora


This sunny shop near the aqueduct stocks a tempting array of Portuguese delicacies. You'll find good, affordable wine (as well as vinho verde and alvarinho from northern Portugal), plus cheeses, chocolates, tinned fish and craft beer. You can also enjoy a bite on-site, with meat and cheese boards and wines by the glass (from €2).
