Gastronomy
Just a few minutes from the hotel, in Santa Cruz do Douro, you'll find Casa de Tormes, associated with Eça de Queiroz and his work "The City and the Mountains," which was inspired by this region.
It is from this proximity that the reference to the writer arises in the Douro Palace's restaurants. The Eça Restaurant, overlooking the river, focuses on the flavors of the region, with a simple and contemporary approach. The Tertúlia Bar offers a more informal space, designed for moments of pause throughout the day. During the summer months, the Lira Bar, next to the pool, provides support service in a relaxed atmosphere.

Eça Restaurant
Located within the Quinta estate, the Eça Restaurant draws inspiration from its connection to Eça de Queiroz, a theme also reflected in its décor. Overlooking the Douro River, it offers a menu focused on regional cuisine, highlighting local and seasonal products. Among the suggestions are the traditional Alheira sausage from Baião, the Transmontano couscous with regional smoked meats, the catch of the day, or the Douro pike, along with options such as the vegetable moqueca – a simple yet authentic dish.
