If you want to have your meal in a restaurant in Celorico de Basto, we usually recommend, as indicated by our guests in terms of value for money, the Caneiro restaurant.

Caneiro Arco de Baúlhe Restaurant, why is it so recommended?


A must-go restaurant for those who like to eat well, it is known for its delicious and unmissable octopus rice à Caneiro.

Veal, kid and cod are other specialties that can (and should) be accompanied by the house wine or by one of the spectacular wines in the wine cellar.


Another highlight of the restaurant, in addition to the friendliness of the staff, is the location over the river with a wonderful view over the mountains and the natural beauty of the Basto area. The price-quality ratio is excellent, and it is convenient to book in advance to avoid waiting lines.


For dessert, we recommend the spectacular chocolate cake.


Address: Rua do Caneiro | Arco de Baúlhe

Telephone: + 351 253 663 566


Where is and what to eat at Chalé de Celorico de Basto?


Located next to Ecopista do Tâmega, in the parish of Arnóia, although relatively away from the Castle of Arnóia, the Chalé restaurant stands out for being in a cozy place next to the forest.


It is very frequented by cyclists who use the magnificent Ecopista do Tâmega between Amarante and Arco do Baúlhe and take a break in the middle of the route to rehydrate with a small beer and/or to (re)calibrate their strength with a succulent bifana.

At the holiday home in Celorico de Basto, Casa do Penedo (which you can book here), we receive many groups of cyclists, cyclotourists and other more amateur or professional athletes who take the opportunity to tour the Ecopista do Tâmega and enjoy nature.


This is one of the reasons for the suggestion of the Chalé restaurant, which has an extensive outdoor space, framed by nature, with excellent pizzas, good snacks and a great green house wine to accompany to food intake.


The house's green wine is effectively one of the main references of Casa do Penedo's guests, as well as the friendliness, good service and good food.

Very pleasant interior space, friendly service and very good starters, namely the gizzards, are other positive aspects mentioned by our guests, who, of course, praise the region's white and red green wine.
