A Pérola do Bolhão

4.4 ·

Admire a beautiful Art Nouveau tiled facade and pick up local snacks in a classic Porto grocery store. A short and photogenic stop.

📖

Full description

A Pérola do Bolhão is a grocery store in Porto behind a charming Art Nouveau tile facade. One reviewer found it a very disappointing stop despite the inviting entrance.

It is open from 9:30 AM to 9:00 PM on both Monday and Saturday. A visit takes about fifteen minutes and suits couples and anyone who enjoys photographing historic shopfronts.

I would recommend stopping by but also trying other local…
