Top 10 cafes in Lisbon (a local's guide)

29 November 2018

In case you didn't know, we're "Lisboetas" - born and raised in Lisbon.
As locals, we're really happy and proud that our city is getting more attention and love from tourists and it's clearly becoming a trendy city amongst travel lovers!

In here, we'll share 10 of some of our favourite cafes in town☕ (in no particular order).


Amélia

A place where you really feel good just by being inside of it. A ceiling covered with flowers and  walls with neon lights, love words combined with "power bowls", pancakes, toasts and an healthy colorful menu. Plus there's a beautiful terrace too!

Address: Rua Ferreira Borges, 101, Campo de Ourique, 1350-128 Lisboa.
Open every day from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Fábrica da Nata

If you ever come to Lisbon or Portugal you must try the famous "pastéis de nata/belém", a custard tart. There's an ongoing debate among portuguese people on which place has got the best recipe, but  for us there's no doubt: "Fábrica da Nata" wins! Plus, they're cheaper than the other famous places and you'll love the traditional tiles decor inside.

Address: Praça dos Restauradores, nº 62-68, 1250-110 Lisboa.
Open every day from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Fresh and delicious food in a cute cafe with white brick walls and plants all over the place - this is one of our top choice spots, specially to brunch (but you also have other types of meals available on the menu). I swear their pancakes are one of the best in town, my favourites being the ones with peanut butter, chocolate and banana 🥞 And although sometimes the lines outside the door may seem endless, it is worth the 20 or 30 minutes wait!

Address: Rua da Esperança 33, 1200-655 Lisboa
Open every day, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Landeau Chocolate

It was featured in the New York Times magazine as one of the best chocolate cakes: few can resist to a slice of this mousse-type cake with cocoa powder on top. And the hot chocolate drink is to die for.
