Masseira

Finally visited Massiera today — a beautiful walk-in bakery specializing in biological sourdough bread. I picked up the brioche and wow — unbelievably buttery, soft, and full of flavor. Definitely a new favorite spot!

The plain brioche is a must try! And the cinnamon buns are really good. English speaking friendly staff. Went there twice during our short porto stay. Highly recommended!

Great sourdough bread in Porto.

Very friendly staff Their bread is tasty and fresh, absolutely worth the while

Great variety of artisan bread and other baked goods. Affordable compared to other bakeries in its range.

I think this is the best bread I've ever had in my life. I haven't had sourdough in EVERY country, but certainly a lot of artisan bakeries in a lot of places. Please see if you agree with me. I accidentally ate half a loaf before I realized it. I have eaten the sourdough with olives, plain wheat sourdough, and sourdough with sesame and sunflower seeds. The crust is crispy yet tender, the crumb of the bread is the perfect density with the sourdough lightness and moisture, and the flavor! Excellent all around. I hope that you get to the shop before I do, because I will clear the shelf every time.

“Alternative-Grains”? “Sourdough-Bread? These, my friends-are Keyword-clusters that translate to- 💥THE REAL DEAL💥 of Bakeries I’ve experienced in my 11 short months of loving ,living in Porto/VN GAIA! The man behind the counter was so super friendly, and knowledgeable about something as humble as BAKED BREAD! Not “Institutional Bread”, but “Artisanal Bread” ! Bread with soul - like his lovely black Olive Sourdough bread, no little flecks of olives here… but big slices of nicely brined-olives of Portuguese descent. Did I mention his BRIOCHE? O.M.G.! So delicious - so-sweet- that 2-Slices- “mysteriously” got partially eaten on our way to “PATCH-Lifestyle & Plant-Stand-Store” on Rua do Rosario. We can only hope the owner thinks about expanding his successful business by opening across the Douro in Gaia! They’d “KILL IT” ( a technical small-Business phrase by the way!)

Definitely one of the best 'trigo' bread in town. They sell all kinds of sourdough bread but I also occasionally saw different types such as rice bread. My favourite is its Brioche and my partner likes cinnamon rolls. To me a smile always doubles the taste and sometimes they are lack of it. But overall this tiny bakery gives us joy of bread. And as it is a small bakery, you cannot eat in (just in case)
