Porto is Portugal's second city but first in many locals' hearts for coffee. The city's relationship with coffee runs through Delta Cafés, headquartered nearby, and a traditional café culture that revolves around tiny espresso cups (called 'cimbalinos' here, after the Cimbali machine brand). A specialty scene is emerging in Cedofeita and around the Clérigos tower.
