Dining information
Restaurant:
Helmed by chef Nuno Matos, restaurant Vale de Abrãao is a contemporary dining space sprawling across an open kitchen, a dining room and a sun-kissed terrace. The menu celebrates the region’s produce and the day’s harvest from the organic gardens. Inside, the open cooking station has a wood-fired oven and Josper grill for culinary theatrics; outside, courtyard tables are arranged around a trickling fountain, with serene views of the surrounding vineyards.
Top Table:
A terrace table at the top of the steps commands the best views of the pool and gardens. Book the chef’s table to watch the maestro at work.
Last Orders:
The kitchen is open until 10pm.
Room Service:
Burgers, sandwiches, moreish tapas and lavish platters of cheese and charcuterie can be brought to your room.
Hotel Bar:
All polished concrete, low-slung sofas and large communal tables, Quinta Bar & Lounge is a sociable spot for afternoon tea or a pre-dinner game of pool. The fruity, zesty cocktail menu changes according to what’s ripe in the garden. The Wine Library features a high-class take on the vending machine: a card from reception lets guests pick their own mini bottle from an extensive selection of Douro Valley wines, all of which go down a treat with a tempting little something from the tapas menu.
