The traditional café reopens its doors. With traditional products of small Portuguese producers, Café Rivoli is now on the third floor of the Rivoli Theater.
Reopened at the end of April, Café Rivoli aims to serve the people who work in the theater, as well as those around it. It is the result of a concession from the Porto City Council and it's managed by Sara Meirinhos and Suzana Peixoto.
The menu consists of meals, meat and cheese boards, sandwiches, desserts and of course a variety of coffees. Anyone visiting the Café Rivoli can also enjoy beers, ciders, wines and other beverages.
The price is affordable, with appetizers from € 1 and meals for the price of 6€. There is even a vegetarian option.
In addition to being cozy - with sofas for relaxed gatherings and tables, which can be used for meetings and study sessions - the venue features modern decor with unusual paintings and fixtures.
The café's furniture also tells stories by bringing memories of the past. This is because the tables and chairs are originally from the theater itself and therefore can be recognized by former clients.
According to Sara Meirinhos, "it is a place for those who work and who visit the theater can hang out and feel pleased". She also points out that the cafe is open to the public, who is invited to have a delicious coffee in an environment full of art.
