Restaurants and Events - The Fladgate Partnership

Make the most of your trip to the Taylor’s visitors’ centre and cellars by accompanying your visit with a sumptuous lunch or dinner at our Barão Fladgate Restaurant.

Enjoy stunning views over Porto and the River Douro from our terrace, or our beautiful gardens from within the restaurant whilst savouring a wealth of traditional Portuguese dishes accompanied by the best of Portuguese wines, and of course a glass or two of Taylor’s Port.

Named after John Fladgate, the celebrated 19th century Port shipper and partner of Taylor’s who was awarded the title of Baron for his services to viticulture.

Três Séculos has been hosting and organising events in the historic Port wine cellar district of Porto, Portugal, since 1988 honouring a range of occasions from conference meals, weddings, baptisms and birthday parties, to official national and international state dinners.

With a wide variety of conference rooms and events spaces at the Taylor’s Port and Croft Port cellars and also at nearby Quinta do Barões, Três Séculos can host functions for groups between 10 and 1200 people.

Many of the spaces were once Port cellars or the banquet halls of the Port companies.

The World of Wine (WOW) launched in July 2020 and is a collection of cultural, culinary, and retail concepts spread over more than 35,000m2 in the city’s historic wine cellar district.

Located in the historic heart of Gaia, a short distance from the centre of Porto, WOW celebrates culture, the values and history of Portugal and its main industries.

WOW provides visitors with six immersive museum experiences, nine restaurants, bars, and cafes, event spaces, temporary exhibition space, retail outlets, and a wine school.

The seven experiences at WOW are:

The Wine Experience
Porto Region Across the Ages
Planet Cork
The Bridge Collection – 9,000 years of drinking
The Chocolate Story
The Atkinson Museum

Each of the seven two-hour experiences engage and amaze with impressive visual and interactive presentations, historical artifacts all curated by experts in the fields of wine, history and culture. The opening this summer will also see the launch of the WOW Wine School, offering light introduction or more technical immersion courses for wine lovers, connoisseurs, professionals or those looking for experiential travel.

If you’re looking for a coffee, go to ‘Suspiro’, ‘Vinte Vinte Café’ or ‘Maze’. To eat a meal, simply choose one of the different concepts: ‘1828’, the best steakhouse in Portugal, ‘Golden Catch’ for the best fish and seafood dishes from our coast, ‘Root & Vine’ as a Brunch & Dinner, ‘T&C’ as a reflection of the most authentic Portuguese gastronomy, ‘Mira Mira’ with fine dining, ‘Pip’ and ‘Lemon Plaza’ for smaller portions to snack on and ‘VP’ for events and a special Family Brunch on Sundays.

For a glass of wine, rest and relax with the best view over Porto at the ‘Angel’s Share’ wine bar.

At the heart of the district is a large open-air square with panoramic views overlooking the River Douro and Porto’s historic skyline, making it the perfect place to savour the city.

The ideal plan, therefore, is to set aside a whole day to discover WOW. Each visitor can choose the museums they prefer, the restaurants they want to try and complete it with a wine or chocolate workshop. Those who stay until the evening have the reward of watching the daily video mapping show in the central square. In addition, WOW works as a cultural catalyst. It’s worth following the agenda because there are always good reasons to come back.
