Solar do Bacalhau

It sits in a privileged location in Baixa de Coimbra, an area of the historic centre that in the Middle Ages was occupied by merchants and artisans. If you are looking for a place to savour Portugal’s famous bacalhau (salt‑cod), you will not find a better spot! The product’s preparation can be observed up close, in an area where several postas de bacalhau (cod sections) hang and countless lombos (loins) are soaked. It goes without saying that there is a wide variety of this traditional dish on the menu, among which we suggest Bacalhau à Coimbra (Coimbra‑style bacalhau), served in an earthenware casserole and in generous portions, standing out both for its flavour and the quality of the product. Divided into two floors with a generous space, the establishment offers capacity for more than 200 diners, as well as an interior glass‑roofed patio full of natural light and a terrace, perfect for enjoying the city’s charm!
