From Monday to Wednesday, the store will be open for online order pickup. Thursday and Friday, from 11:00 AM to 5:30 PM, the store is open to the public.

Other new developments will also occur in 2026. The Ibéria restaurant and the kosher store on the same street will be managed by a company from Golders Green, London.

Portuel, Porto

On its way to completing its 11th year of uninterrupted minyan at the central synagogue, with a second synagogue holding daily minyan, and a world leader in promoting Jewish culture, the Jewish Community of Porto is preparing to increase its efforts in the area of kashrut, with new developments expected to follow throughout this year.

The easy accessibility of kosher products and places open to the public, despite all the surrounding safety issues, cannot be ignored. Kashrut is a fundamental part of traditional Jewish life. It turns the everyday act of eating into a spiritual discipline and a connection to God.
