Today I went for lunch with my parents at Cancelha Velha and it was an amazing experience. Starting with Sr . Manuel Monteiro he was a fantastic Host with great energy and joyfully.

Then the deserts , all homemade , they all look delicious but taste even better . And at last but not less important , the house red wine , produced in Douro valley was great. I would recommend Cancela Velha without hesitation. Definitely will be back in my next visit...

“Best Cabrito Asado in Portugal” “Unbelievable wine list, just amazing”
A hidden jewel in the middle of Portugal, just half an hour from the Douro River, we found this great restaurant, family owned, spectacular grilling, local cuisine and a very friendly staff.
The grilled Alheira was flawless, perfectly seasoned and deliciously grilled!
And of course the grilled goat was stunning, so good!
The wine list is just unbelievable, Douro selection is insane, 2008 and 2011 still available from many Quintas…
Desserts: my wife still day dreaming with the almond cake!
This is a place to visit, a must, can wait...
