Eating in the palace of Pedro and Inês

The Quinta das Lágrimas is the palace and gardens on the other side of the Mondego where tradition places the love affair of Pedro and Inês de Castro. Today it is a five-star hotel, and its restaurant serves the creative cooking of chef Vítor Dias, with a Portuguese base. In summer, the garden becomes an open-air dining room.

The weekend brunch

On Saturdays and Sundays, from 12:00 to 15:00, there is brunch at the palace: €27 for adults, €15 for children aged 5 to 12 and free up to 4. It is the most affordable way to get to know the house, and it fits a Sunday getaway before heading back to Spain.

Getting there

It is on the south bank of the Mondego, a few minutes by car from the centre, beside the Santa Clara-a-Velha convent and Portugal dos Pequenitos. It has hotel parking; ask when you book.

What to order: the weekend brunch, in the palace and with a stroll through the gardens of Pedro and Inês.
