THE COOLEST TERRACES IN BRAGA

The hot weather has arrived in full force and with it, the city’s terraces…
And how wonderful is it to enjoy a beautiful terrace... on a hot day; in the morning, during the sun’s best time, or at any time of the day for that matter? Spending time relaxing on a the terrace that protects us from the sun, or even at night, simply enjoying a pleasant evening.
In order to do that in the coolest way possible, here are some suggestions of the best terraces in the city of Braga.

Good morning sunshine!
The birds are singing, the flowers are blossoming and warm bread is just coming out of the oven… at the terrace of the cafe-bakery Lusitana, you can take pleasure in the awakening of a new day, perfectly.
Enjoying breakfast in a place that overlooks one of the most beautiful and oldest gardens in the city, the Santa Barbara garden, is certainly the best way to start the day.
Absorb the morning sun’s positive energy and enjoy a good cup of coffee which can be accompanied by bread, cake, milk or natural juice. Good morning!

Lunch with a view
Heat reaches its most opulent moment around lunchtime, and at that time the idea is a terrace tucked away from the sun, somewhere cooler, such as Colinatrum’s terrace, which not only protects us from the sun, but also offers breathtaking scenery, perfect for dreaming of upcoming holidays. Offering light lunches and fresh salads, at this terrace, lunch will certainly be very enjoyable. Bonne appetit!

Relax in the heart of the city...
Because it is such a popular spot, whether it is winter or summer, the terrace of the secular cafe A Brasileira is always a lovely and timeless option.
A terrace that is super central, super cool and super nice to relax in during the afternoon, while enjoying a drip coffee and people watching those wandering around the city.
If the conversation lasts longer than expected, indulge in a refreshing iced tea and a delicious slice of one of the cakes of the day.

In the shade of Braga
There is no cooler terrace than this one. The Tílias Terrasse has the coolest shade and the best views of Braga. It was born in 2011 and replaced Bom Jesus’ mythical and nostalgic red benches.
Open every day between April and September, you now have the possibility to enjoy views of the city of Braga accompanied by a cool drink, a cocktail, an ice cream cup or a crepe. It is highly recommended on especially hot days.

Dinner in the garden
The day is winding down, but a few rays of sun still linger and Falperra is the perfect setting to get a start on a beautiful summer night, more precisely at the D. Júlia restaurant.
Now with an equally inviting terrace, you can also dine in the garden, with a gorgeous forest landscape as backdrop. Before dinner, have a gin, the coolest drink of the moment, always prepared by the restaurant’s top expert.

A night for everyone

For the calm:
Now, for a cooler moment, but equally enjoyable, you can take advantage of the rest of the night in the centrally located Convento do Carmo.
Here you’ll find a relaxed and secluded garden, ideal for sipping a cool drink, accompanied by good music.

For more excitement:
If you prefer more excitement and a casual atmosphere, you must pass by the Cathedral area, Braga’s hot spot during summer nights. Here you’ll find a variety of bars, all different, but all super cool in their own special way.
The eternal Deslize, the relaxing Rossio, the very Portuguese Mercado da Saudade, the cultural Estúdio 22, and Encantos da Minha Terra, for the wine connoisseur in you.´

This summer, enjoying a spectacular terrace is the coolest thing you can do in Braga!
