Café Império is a traditional cafe established in 1929 in a small town in Portugal, offering mainly omnivore fare with some adaptable vegan options, notably a veggie burger that can be made vegan by removing dairy and eggs. The venue is casual, budget-friendly, and wheelchair accessible, known for friendly and knowledgeable staff who assist with vegan requests despite limited dedicated vegan menu items. While the tofu salad option appears to have been discontinued, the cafe continues to accommodate vegan diners with good service and affordable pricing.
