Tucked away in Porto’s leafy heart, Bosco is a bar that feels like a secret garden party among a hip, young, international crowd. Set within a serene, tree-canopied courtyard overlooking the terraced Virtudes gardens, it offers a welcome respite from the city’s historical old town bustle. The atmosphere is effortlessly chic: think rattan loungers, striped parasols, and the gentle clink of glasses beneath fairy-lit branches. The vibe could be described as a Soho House-inspired. Bosco’s restaurant opens for dinners, with a menu that is a celebration of modern Portuguese and continental flavours, however the garden bar outside is where it really happens — open from lunch time with plenty of inventive cocktails and a lovely wine selection.
As dusk settles, the space transforms: DJs spin mellow beats, and the garden pulses with a buzzy energy. Whether you’re sipping a Negroni at sunset or enjoying live music under the stars, beautiful Bosco captures the essence of Porto’s laid-back chic. Lush greenery and modern decor make for a vibrant yet serene ambiance. Enjoy panoramic views of the river and city from the garden.
