Authentic Fado in Porto since 1968
CASA DA MARIQUINHAS
Casa da Mariquinhas is not just Porto’s oldest Fado house. It’s a place where Fado is intimacy, truth and pure emotion. Here you’ll hear every sigh of the fadista, the vibration of the Portuguese guitar with crystalline clarity, in rare proximity to the city’s finest artists.
