À Moda Antiga

Viana do Castelo


On the waterfront opposite the Jardim Marginal, this retro market and bistro serves great weekday lunch menus (soup, main dish, drink and coffee for just €7), along with all-day dishes such as handmade burgers. The industrial space has high ceilings and exposed stone walls and a curated selection of old-fashioned Portuguese brands, plus there are a couple of tables outside.
