Based on a friend's recommendation we had lunch at Pimms. I thought it was a little expensive for lunch, but the quality was great. Our only problem was our lack of Portuguese and our waiter's lack of English. We managed through it but were unsure at several points what he was talking about. The owner was a nice guy but... More

The food was great, they had good vegetarian options (I am a vegetarian) and really friendly waiters. It has a good price-quality rate. We wanted to go back on Sunday for dinner, but they close after lunch (4 pm). Make sure to get the eggplant parmigiana and the sparkling sangria!

.....was just what we wanted after a day's tour - but where to find something basic but good in Porto on a Saturday night when the European stag parties are massing and the riverside bars and cafes all offer tourist fare? " There's a blue one, there's a white one, there's a red one, there's a yellow one" but they... More

The food was not even near good considering it's price. The place is nice decorated but it's not very comfortable. An experience not to repeat.

We were in a rush to find a lunch spot before we left Porto and spotted this small, modern restaurant next to the Ingreja de Sao Francisco. We liked the modern, nearly all white interior. Having had lots of country-style Portuguese food on our trip we were happy switching to more modern fare. We had a very tasty, inexpensive meal... More

Last Wednesday we had a lovely evening at PIMMS. Small restaurant, great atmosphere, enjoyed the meal and wine. Absolutely worth a visit. Thanks for the PIMMS pin :-))))!!! You will get it back once... Lots of love, Saskia Wolfs

A nice clean, bright restaurant with a good range of dishes & helpful service. We had pasta for mains and couldn't eat it all. Nice outdoor area, although it was too cool in the evening to sit out there.

It was my second time at Pimms and as the previous one I really enjoyed my experience there. Fantastically located, the decoration is stunning and the food (I had the midday menu both times) was homemade style and homemade flavour; the poumpkin soup was gorgeous as well as the main course. The staff was friendly and professional. The price is... More
