O Cantinho De Portugal - London

Really great Portuguese eating with many vegan options, all are high in protein and really delicious

I am porto in portugal and I grew up eating francesinha so my standards were high when I found out there was a restaurant in london serving a vegan francesinha. I went for it and it wasn't a terrible experience, but I expected a little more. in porto, when they ask for a vegan francesinha, they use either tofu or side, grilled vegetables and they offer vegan cheese at most places. but it had only boiled broccoli, green and carrot. the brot was soggy and there was no cheese. it was like they used the left of the sides to make us a francesinha. I would not even ask that they use processed foods such as tofu or since, but some grilled mushrooms and aubergine would make all the difference. the only thing it was worth was the sauce and the homemade pommes. Anyway, if they are vegan and want a bit taste of Portuguese cuisine, it is a good choice as they have a separate menu with vegan / vegetarian options.

This is an excellent place to stop by for a quick bite. The decor leaves a little to be desired (it's a little dingy), but the food and beer are cheap and the service is quick and efficient. The place has the feel of a Mediterranean local cantina, and it is in fact frequented by many Portuguese speakers. The spicy sausages are especially tasty.

This is the sort of place you would never go, unless you knew it, which I suppose makes it perfect for this website. One of many Portuguese hangouts in Stockwell (or Little Portugal as it is sometimes known) this place is the best of the local bunch. Offering the cheapest beers around (we're talking under here) and a great menu of authentic, tasty and cheap meals, this place is perfect for a good feed on a budget (especially if you like fish) or even just a few beers with your amigos. Friendly staff and Portuguese TV adds to the feeling that you've wandered into Lisbon, but beware entering if there's a big footy game (involving Porto, Benfica or even Portugal on) as it will get lively!

Definitely worth it if you’re looking for some good, simple Portuguese food. The bread and butter at the beginning made everything feel more home-like. I would certainly recommend this to anyone.
