Restaurante Videira

Parque Nacional da Peneda-Gerês


Locals rave about Videira’s authentic regional smoked meats and sausage and the homemade mainstays made with cachena veal. The shady, arched patio of this family-run tavern is fitted out with sturdy, polished wooden tables. Most dishes easily feed two; some are available in half portions. Videira is situated by the bus stop.
