Timetable
On the whole, the timetables are fairly similar to those in France. For cafés and bars open during the day, they operate continuously from 8am to 8pm or even 9pm to 10pm. Opening and closing times can be modified according to the time of year, for example at Christmas.
Budget & Tips
It may be complicated to use your credit card in traditional places, especially for small amounts. Make sure you have cash on hand. To drink cheaply, choose the most typical places that don't look like much. It is also possible to buy a drink at the supermarket and drink it quietly in a square, in a park, or on the banks of the Douro.
Age restrictions
For all alcoholic beverages, you must be at least 18 years of age. The bars are open to everyone.
What's very local
Taking your coffee in the morning at a pastelaria counter is very common. Drinking a beer sitting on the terrace of a kiosk is also common.
