Mix and match - Edit
Delicious food with inventive combinations of flavors. Interesting wine selection, friendly service and overall cozy environment. Locals recommended and I definitely would too. Bonus points for the several gluten free options on the menu, which is a list of small dishes to enjoy by yourself or share with the group, making for a fun mix and match tasting.

Deserved of hype - Edit
Very popular on happy cow and it deserves to be. Changing menu every week I believe. It is a small plates restaurant with focus on veg and whole foods (no fake meat). Every single dish was delicious. It was inventive and creative. One of the most enjoyable vegan meals I've had. Quite an intimate atmosphere. Reasonably priced for the quality. The meat eater in my group said it was the best vegan food she'd had.

Creativity on a plate - Edit
A real treat in Porto and gastronomic experience. Each small plate - we shared 6 between 2 people and that was a lovely feast - is a work of art in itself. The flavour combinations were creative and the dishes were presented with flair. This is an unpretentious foodie haven with friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Read morePros: Hugely creative, Variety of small dishes you can combine, Humbly brilliant

A culinary journey - Edit
I'm thoroughly enjoying my time in Oporto, especially exploring restaurants that are striving to innovate. Venn Canteen stands out with its diverse array of vegetable small plates, each offering a unique culinary journey.
Read moreStarting with a delightful selection of bread and a pesto bursting with flavor, my culinary adventure began. Among the small plates, grilled mushrooms accompanied by hazelnut and oat granola, along with an infused mushroom cream, provided a satisfying experience, although I felt the cream could explore different flavors. However, the fried polenta stole the spotlight with its incredible compote.
For those seeking a dining experience that pushes culinary boundaries, Venn Canteen is a must-visit destination in Oporto.
Pros: Food, Staff, 100%

Yum! - Edit
If you like healthy and don't need a vast menu choice for lunch, this is a must. Choice of 2 starters and 2 mains. Bursting with flavours.

Ein Muss für deinen Porto Besuch! - Edit
Wer auch immer hier in der Küche steht, weiß ganz genau was er da tut 😍
Read moreDie Speisenauswahl ist klein, sowie die Portionsgröße; es ist gedacht 3 oder 4 Gerichte zu nehmen und das ist auch gut so, denn das Essen ist wirklich ausgefallen aber absolut harmonisch im Geschmack. Nichts für jeden Tag durch die etwas höheren (aber absolut gerechtfertigten! Preise), trotzdem 11 von 10 Punkten! 🫠🥰
Das Lokal an sich ist auch sehr chic und das Personal sehr freundlich :D
Pros: Sehr kreative Speisen, Gemütliche Atmosphäre, Freundliches Personal

fine, creative food - Edit
We really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. The portions are ideal for sharing; we ordered four different dishes for two people. All were convincing and finely balanced in terms of taste. The dessert (chocolate garnacha with pear, caramel and salt) was amazing.

Creative, delicious - Edit
I like everything about this place - creative original dishes, friendly and attentive service, relaxed atmosphere. A restaurant with roast parsnip as a menu option gets my vote! The brioche and beetroot with whipped feta were delicious too. Next time I'm in Porto I'll be back.

Plan Accordingly - Edit
Truly exceptional plant based menu which changes each week. Closed on Sunday and Monday (quality of life!) and also on Tuesday (prep day in the kitchen). Once you taste the food, you will understand how staff quality of life and a full day of prep translates into careful, delicious tasting cuisine. Your only disappointment will be if you fail to plan your visit to Porto accordingly.
