Bar Douro City in City of London, Westminster

Great selection of Portuguese food and drinks - felt transported to Portugal. Everything was fresh and had an amazing taste. I have been to bar duoro a few times both in the city and London Bridge area and have never been disappointed . I will happily keep keep coming back for the food , wonderful service and decor - love the tile art work ! Obrigada !

Un moment au top ! Tout était parfait et les serveurs vraiment top aussi! Bref un moment magique que ce soit par les plats ou l’ambiance ! Allez y vous ne serez pas déçus

Das sehr schön eingerichtete Bar-Restauran in Nähe der Liverpool Station hat uns überzeugt. Die Karte ist übersichtlich und ausgewogen gehalten, eigentlich eine Tapaskarte zum Teilen. Wir hatten zu zweit 6 kleine Gerichte, ausgewogen und ausreichend. Alles war gut, nur das Duck in Rise gewöhnungsbedürftig. Also einen Besuch wert!

Simply epic - this is the best authentic Portuguese cooking I’ve ever had in the UK. Great atmosphere, table or bar seat, little plates keep flowing and all were delicious. Expensive Wine List, but top quality. £75/head is good value in London, particularly on this quality. Left with full tums and a smiley face, will be back

This was truly a fantastic dining experience. The restaurant is beautiful with a lovely ambience and no shouting across the table to be heard! The food is incredible… delicious tapas. I recommend the cabbage (I’m a huge meat and seafood lover but this really was the star of the show) and every dish was clearly prepared with passion and care. The waitresses who looked after us were friendly and attentive. They were professional but relaxed which was appreciated. I have already recommended this restaurant to others and look forward to returning! The only downside was the automatic door which let in a freezing cold breeze every time some entered or left.

Amazing service. Me and my husband celebrated his birthday there, and I requested pastel de nata with a candle and my requested was granted. Thank you very much for being so attentive. The staff is very kind, polite and quick. The ambiance is nice. The food come in small plates and portions. The value per food is a bit expensive but the food is very tasty. I would definitely go back and now I know that more plates you need to be ordered, even the ones that they can say can be shared come on small portions.

Had a great late lunch of small plates with a friend. The food was excellent and the tomato jam amazing with the cheese. Thank you for the friendly service by our great Romanian waitress and the chef who shared to tomato jam recipe. Recommend highly.

First class food, great service, nice ambience and a great selection of wines and ports. 100% recommend for a Portuguese dining experience

A compact menu of delicious small plates, delivered to your table when they are ready, a bit like tapas. Lovely tasty food with interesting flavours. The beef onglet was especially good. We each had a glass of house wine which was really drinkable. Service was friendly and efficient and the atmosphere was relaxed. Highly recommended for a reasonably priced meal in the City.

That piece of Portugal we were looking for, the food, small sharing platters, well presented and very, very tasty, garlic prawns, wonderful and the salt cod fritters, yummy. The service was professional, always good to see happy front-of-house staff, we went on Saturday, about 2 pm, so it was a quiet period, but I expect that during the week this is a livelier place, Very reasonably priced and excellent value, a place to revisit. I suggest that you check out their website link for more info on party bookings/

We had a few items that were delicious - Croquetes, Onglet steak and garlic potatoes were the real highlights. We also had some things that really were underwhelming. The Salt cod fritters were virtually tasteless and a couple of them were loaded with fish bones. And, we were very disappointed with the garlic prawns (we were really looking forward to them and ordered two portions). They too were rather tasteless although well cooked and tender. Bread dipped in the sauce was pleasant enough. Service was also an issue. Although everyone was very nice, other than when we first sat down, no one was ever proactive. Any time we wanted to order food or drink, we had to ask someone to come to our table. There were several member of the front-of-house staff and although there was one large table, they were nearing the end of their meal. So, I did not see any obvious reason why checking in on us once in a while should have been a problem. We did appreciate the gentleman who asked for some details about why we were disappointed with the fritters and the server who helped us make a wine selection was very helpful. Overall, I would not rush back. If I did go again, I would get a portfion of the potatoes and the beef all to myself - they were that good.

Small, cosy bar that serves good Portuguese meals. I recommend ordering two or three plates per person and sharing them so that you try a wide variety of food. The cod fritters were the best dish I had. Very crispy and warm -- not soggy or cold like some other reviewers described. The meat croquettes were OK, but I thought the presentation was a little pretentious. Bacalhau à Brás was very filling due to starch content, so don't order many starter plates if you intend to eat this, too. The egg yolk pudding was rich. Think of it as a decent caramel pudding. I would have preferred the cinnamon ice cream that comes with the pastel de nata to the lemon sorbet that accompanies this dessert. Note: I'm not Portuguese, so I can't talk about the authenticity of the food, merely the taste. I also don't drink much, so I avoided that aspect of the offering.

Very good the pataniscas de bacalhau, good the bacalhau à braz, the meat plates are ok also…wonderful to taste the Douro wine again and I really enjoyed the pastel de nata. One suggestion : side the sauce that accompanies the tempura with fried joaquinzinhos - it will work perfectly.

My friend and got there early - 5.45ish so we were seated straight away, waiting staff were friendly and attentive. the food was delicious - I recommend the king prawns! Good wine and a nice atmosphere, by the time we left at 7.30 it was getting busy.

First visit - would go back. Firstly some superb service as one of my friends was gluten intolerant - waitress marked up the menu for what she couldn’t have. Really impressive. No fuss just sorted it. Food very tasty - prawns and the salted cod in hash the best. Good atmosphere; tasty food; excellent service.

There was a large group of us so we went for the group menu. The service and food were superb. It was so nice to try new dishes. Everyone enjoyed it! I’m almost certain we will be back. Thank you.

I always have the best time in Bar Douro. It takes me back home with the authentic flavours with a twist. Food prepared with care in an open kitchen Excelente offer on wines, with wines from every region Knowledgeable staff. 100% recommend

Lots of wonderful little dishes to share. Croquetes and Gambas are firm favourites. Excellent service, warm welcome and buzzy place.

Recently took the family there to remind ourselves of our trip to Portugal...what a treat! Amazing food! A special mention to the chef's for the croquetas, the gambas (had to order some bread to finish the sauce as it was so tasty) and the bacalhau a bras. The decor with the Azulejos tiles made us feel back in Lisbon. Portugal is a great wine country and the wine list very impressive. We had one of our favourite producer Filipa Pato which was delicious. A huge thanks to the team for a great service and making us feels on holiday for the evening. We will be back!

Food was delicious, especially the asparagus with homemade requeijão. Lovely staff and the manager showed us an amazing white wine from the Algarve!

Absolutely beautiful restaurant complimented by excellent service/food/wine. This restaurant is a must try! Some of my favourite dishes include: Salt Cod Hash, Garlic Prawns and the iconic pastel de nata

First let me start by saying that the most of the food did indeed tasted good. 1.None of the staff were Portuguese, they couldn't even pronounce the menu items. 2.The requeijão dish didn't really looked like tasted or had the texture of requeijão, looked like...

I went in bar Douro in Liverpool street on tuesday 3th with couple of frineds. The best portuguese restaurant that I ever been and one of the best restaurant that I ever been in London so far. If you like the tapas concept this is...

I went there for dinner with my bf, didn't know what to expect but definitely left pleasantly surprised. First impression, I loved the blue tiles theme, and the atmosphere felt super cozy. I know the restaurant served tapas, so smaller plates, but I must admit,...

We came here to celebrate my mums birthday and had a lovely time. The food is great; the service is exceptional and I would highly recommend a visit.

Food was lovely but a bit too oily for my liking. Menu wasnt the largest so was quite limited with choice. Service took a bit long too. The decor is lovely and presentation too.

A friend and I stopped in for wine and nibbles after work. Great selection of wine and fantastic food. We sat at the bar and enjoyed watching the goings on as food was being prepared. The service was super friendly and quick. Definitely returning!

Came here with friends. The food was pretty good, but I have to say the manager’s attitude was awful. He was so rude to the last two tables, and considering the restaurant is in a busy part of london, at 11pm he was so rude...

Great food and service. Excellent wines and friendly people. Portuguese style tapas dishes cooked before your very eyes by a talented team of chefs. Will definitely be back.

I have to say I am biased as I had lunch with an old friend here and we talked and talked for over three hours whilst drinking wine and eating shared plate after shared plate. It was a great meal. Every plate was delicious, the...

I had long anticipated a visit to Bar Douro in the City of London to experience Portuguese food. However, my first experience proved to be underwhelming and over-priced. I was very disappointed. Salt cod fritters …. I thought fritters are supposed to be crispy …....

Restaurant is situated in the city center in a very quiet area. Food was lovely. My partner and I ordered 4 tapas to share and dessert. Service was wonderful. Would recommend.

Really enjoyed our dinner (07/08/21). Loved the typical Portuguese tilework on the walls. Friendly and efficient service, nice ambience. All the dishes we had were really tasty. Portions are on a small side, but you order 2-3 per person to share which allows you to...

Have eaten at the London Bridge restaurant a few times so was eager to try the city branch. It’s gorgeous inside, beautifully tiled walls and nice lighting. The food was great as always - the croquettes and steak were the standout dishes. Reasonably priced for...

I came here for a birthday celebration and we ordered one of every dish! Each dish was tasty and I had no disappointments! Our waitress Rita was very nice and accommodating and the staff in general were lovely! The desserts were a lovely follow-up and...

Very friendly staff, very cosy with nice food. It’s a tapas type restaurant, with a large range of wine. The food is typical from Portugal however there is a few dishes adapted to this country. Overall very good place to eat and enjoy time.

Tried this place after loving the Borough branch, but was very disappointed. No social distancing measures in place, all quite close together. Also, the door kept being opened and closed so was quite cold. The food was unfortunately a little disappointing: the Aubergine pie was...

What a fantastic little restaurant, a hidden gem that should not be missed! The food is beyond AMAZING!! Perfect for a date night or with friends, great little wine list! My only issue is that you could order the whole menu it’s so tasty!

Absolutely sensational. Amazing food, visit no.4 and consistently fantastic. Great flavours, good balance of meat, fish and veg. Excellent wines, let the waiting staff recommend as they do it so well. Service exceptional. Just can’t fault it.

Bar Douro City reopened this week and I was keen to be first in line as I was there on its launch day beck on January and enjoyed many visits before lockdown. This is my type of place and transports you to a Portuguese holiday....

I've dined at Bar Douro, London Bridge and always enjoyed the experience so I was delighted to hear the owners had decided to expand and open a new, bigger restaurant in Finsbury Square. This was my first time here and I was really delighted with...

This new restaurant was a delight, with helpful and attentive staff. It was busy without feeling crowded and the food was exceptional. We began with starters which consisted of tempura vegetables which were crisp and delicious. The tapas style menu allowed us to taste a...

I’ve kind been a fan of the original Bar Douro in Southwark, a sort of Portuguese version of Barrafina without the blackboard of specials; instead of prints of singular fellows, blue and white tiling. This second branch is much larger with not only plenty of...

Amazing wine, delicious food and great service! A new hidden gem in the City. Very relaxed for a drink at the bar or to sit down and enjoy some tasty food.
