Capela Incomum

Miragaia


Tucked down a backstreet off the shopping street Rua de Cedofeita, this 19th-century chapel was reborn as a classy two-storey wine bar in 2016 when owner Francisa Lobão decided to put a shining light on Portugal’s impressive selection of wines. Take note of the gorgeous wooden altar before heading upstairs to the quaint dining room for a platter of local meats and cheeses.

Alfresco seating is available during the warmer months.
