Boa Boca restaurantIt’s good, and it’s good for the mouth. The Boa Boca restaurant is on a little corner located near the Calouste Gulbenkian music school. This space is described by those who regularly go there as a "second home", as they recall, with great enthusiasm, how great it is to sit around the table with a group of good friends, talking all night.

CAFÉ BRASILEIRA DE BRAGAWhat can you say about one of Braga’s most iconic spots? With a little research, Wikipedia tells us that, in the past, this was a franchised business, created in March 1907, and initially run for 30 years by Adolpho de Azevedo, a businessman from Porto and Vice-Consulate of Brazil in the city of Braga, who offered a coffee to every customer who bought a kilo of it.

CASA VELHA – COCKTAIL HOUREveryone in Braga remembers the horseback rides that have always existed at one of the entrances of the Bom Jesus Park. If we say that this bar is in this area, certainly the vast majority of people from Braga will recognize the location. But seeing as Casa Velha’s location isn’t the only thing worth mentioning, we must say: the cocktails are really good here!

PËSTE CULTURAL SPACEBraga is so cool that you can even be surprised by what you’ll find behind a garage door, which is precisely what happens on Rua Nova de Santa Cruz, where you’ll find Pëste – a bar and cultural space.

VELHA-A-BRANCAA peculiar space, right in the center of Braga, more specifically on the Senhora-a-Branca square. Velha-a-Branca is not only a cultural nonprofit space, but it is also a place of lectures or courses where you can learn photography, creative writing and even learn how to manage a home, among other arts or concepts that you most certainly will come across. Even if you don’t wish to attend a course, you can always visit the art exhibitions that focus on budding artists or others who choose this place to exhibit their work; or simply meet up with and socialize with interesting people.

CENTÉSIMA PÁGINA BOOKSTOREMuch more than a place to buy books, Centésima Página (Page One Hundred) is a space to mingle with books.
The bookstore provides a perfect environment: quiet, serene, warm and pleasant. Housed in a building that has been classified as Public Interest since 1977, the Rolão House is one of the best preserved examples of 18th century Baroque style.
The bookstore lets its visitors sit comfortably while reading the book they may be contemplating… a good read that may be accompanied by an equally good slice of homemade cake or, if its lunchtime, a sandwich, a pasta or lasagna, available at the store’s cafeteria. If the weather is inviting, you can also enjoy the house’s garden. -
MÁRIO SEQUEIRA GALLERYIt never hurts to acknowledge a space that, although private, opens its doors to the public. Here you will find art, namely contemporary art. But it’s not alone: you’ll find it nestled within a beautiful landscape and architectural frame. And all this will cost you absolutely nothing.
-
TREE OF LIFE CHAPELA sacred chapel, albeit its exclusive location, it must be visited for its originality and because of the fact that it has already won many architecture awards.
Inside the St. Peter and St. Paul Conciliar Seminary in Braga, is the Tree of Life Chapel – winner of the ArchDaily 2011 award for religious building with the best architecture. This is a place that is worth visiting, not only for its architectural aspect, but also for its mystical one.
