To Eat in Leiria

There are an abundance of traditional Portuguese flavors, prepared with precision, down quaint alleys, in this bustling city. The best way to find what you are looking for is to follow your nose. The smell of perfectly prepared torrada (toast) for breakfast, or a mouthwatering francesinha (traditional Portuguese sandwich) for lunch can be had by simply taking a deep breath and walking straight to the source. If you need a little direction, try O Pipo Velho or Casinha Velha for a gracious Portuguese table.
