McDonald's in Porto city centre is often cited as the most "beautiful" of all its near 40,000 locations throughout the world. Situated in the old Cafe Imperial this site is a wonderful example of Art Deco architecture both inside and out.
The cafe became a McDonald's back in 1995 and thankfully virtually all its period features have been retained. Inside the building is some wonderful stained glass and a sizeable crystal chandelier.
The most notable feature though remains the bronze eagle sculpture above the entrance. This was created by sculptor Henrique Moreira.
