A Pérola do Bolhão is a long-running grocery on Rua Formosa, beside the market hall. Shelves hold tinned fish, coffee, wine, sweets and pantry staples that travellers pack and residents restock. It is a shop, not a café with a queue for selfies, though people photograph the façade.
The shop has no strong standalone website; the city lists it under traditional trade. Pay for what you take; this is a working counter.
