Good food is part of the plan

Food halls & markets

Mercado da Ribeira / Time Out

The city-centre one-stop food hall: broad choice, long hours and peak-time crowds.

Mercado de Campo de Ourique

A smaller neighbourhood market with produce counters and relaxed food stalls.

Mercado de Alvalade Norte

A local produce-and-fish market — daily Lisbon beyond the core.

Food retail, cafés and restaurants in a converted Alcântara complex.

Traditional restaurants

Solar dos Presuntos

A long-running house for generous Minho cooking, fish and classic service.

Cervejaria Ramiro

A lively shellfish institution in Intendente. Book or expect a wait.

A modern, energetic take on a neighbourhood tasca near Mouraria. Reserve well ahead.

Taberna Sal Grosso

A compact Santa Apolónia tavern for shareable Portuguese plates.

Bakeries

Pastéis de Belém

The original Belém custard tart, made since 1837.

Warm pastéis de nata made in view, with branches in Chiado, Rossio and beyond.

Winner of Lisbon’s O Melhor Pastel de Nata 2025 competition.

Confeitaria Nacional

A historic Baixa pastry shop for Portuguese sweets and coffee.

A contemporary artisan bakery known for naturally leavened bread and picnic supplies.

Highly recommended

Creative dishes built around small Portuguese producers, in a bright, plant-filled dining room. A strong all-round choice.

José Avillez’s two-Michelin-star Chiado restaurant, with inventive takes on Portuguese cuisine.

An entirely vegetarian tasting menu of around 12 courses — a special-occasion choice.
