The place is really beautiful and comfortable to seat. The stuff was really friendly and helpful. I ordered one cake and one latte, it was 5 euro for all. The dessert was delicious and the coffee was good with fair price. It is a good place to relax when you are tired of walking.

Lovely cakes, sweets, ice cream & coffees. Very good choices & quality. Very good prices for their quality. Very well decorated & plenty of spaces to seat, relax & do some work out of the sun Took me a while to find you but it was worth it! Just next to the Wine Experience in WOW

Visited here early afternoon on a Sunday. The friendly staff were happy for me to take the coffee outside to the terrace, where I sat with my husband and had a ham and cheese toasty, a tasty vanilla caramel éclair and a white coffee with an amazing view

Located inside WOW, the cultural district of Porto, Suspiro is a sweet treat to brighten up a day! The selections of the cakes are so mouthwatering and pleasing to the eyes. We made sure that we had a light lunch so that we can enjoy these beautiful creations. They are not so sweet, just like the way I like it. Decaf version of Espresso is also available. Plenty of space to sit. The only lady that works there is quite efficient to serve the customers.

Arguably the best desert I have ever had in my life. Decadent flavors that are dynamic and creative.
