   Excellent food and service. The range of small dishes was excellent, I particularly enjoyed the steak and the prawns.

   The food is good, but to expensive for very small portions

   Sometimes you have 'one of those meals'.... this was one of them. Had the set menu, which had everything from the menu that interested me, and was not disappointed. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would go back again and have the same again too!

   This is a lovely place in an beautiful quiet area. The Bar Douro is a very traditional Portuguese looking bar with a touch of exquisite. The service is amazing, they are always ensuring we have everything we need and want, without bothering us. They are polite and friendly. The food is proper Portuguese, they are petiscos (small plates, tapas) and one is tastier than the other. The wine is delicious. I definitely recommend this place.

   Portuguese tapas are so good, especially at Bar Douro. They have Portuguese waitresses, and as a Portuguese person, I love that because, honestly, people who go to Bar Douro get recommendations from people who have eaten Portuguese food all their lives. They know what they are recommending for you. The sausage croquettes, the octopus salad, the potatoes with garlic, the prawns ( Gambás ao Guilho” the Bacalhau a Bras, and the Artichoke salad were our pick tonight, and it didn't disappoint at all; we also had the Pasteis de nata with cinnamon ice cream and the Portuguese style fig cake with vanilla ice cream. We had a fantastic choice of food, and honestly, next time, I will eat the cod fish fritters because they are excellent, too. My friend enjoyed her birthday dinner. The Ginjinha cocktails were refreshing and tasty, and the port wine was great for dessert.
