The crowd was super cool, the music was good, the drinks & service were great too...I'm still not exactly sure how to get there the normal way, though, it's in the sub-sub-basement of a shopping mall, so I basically wandered into the service stairwell of this deserted building & down half a dozen flights of stairs until I found a door that was unlocked. Hahaha? No for real. CR

This is the best cocktail bar we have ever visited! The cocktails are really world-class in every…read moreway--perfectly balanced, thoughtful, unique, and memorable. We tried half the menu between our two visits, and there really wasn't a loser in the bunch. The two that stood out for us were the milk punch and the green curry cocktail (can't remember the name), as both were unlike anything I had ever tasted before. The green curry cocktail BLEW MY MIND, as it tasted exactly like Thai green curry but in cocktail form. The balance of salty and sweet was incredible. I'm still thinking about them weeks later. The drinks were so good that we actually came back on our last night in Portugal, even though we had to walk 45 minutes up the hills of Alfama to get there. The vibe is also really nice. It's classy, dark, and mysterious, but the service is so friendly. Our first visit we were served by the owner, Peter, who is a fascinating guy. We really enjoyed getting to meet him and hearing about how he came to open this bar. The second time, we got to meet Peter's wife, who was such a sweetheart. It's also the kind of cocktail bar where everyone ends up talking to everyone else, so if you're looking to meet other people, it's a great place to go. Definitely don't miss this place! It's such a hidden gem.

During our stay in Lisbon, my wife and I would often go to a supermarket to purchase bottles of…read morewine to enjoy in our hotel room. Yes it was a safe, cost effective way to get inebriated. However, we eventually grew tired of this and wanted to enjoy a cocktail or two with the locals. After doing some shopping, we stumbled upon The Bar. Unlike some of the other bars, The Bar does not have outdoor seating. Therefore, you have to keep your eyes peeled for the entrance. Upon entering the dimly lit intimate bar, we were warmly greeted by a bartender named Joao. We took in the romantic ambiance (they have a Louis Vuitton Virgil Abloh collector's book!) as we found seating on one of their cozy + comfy couches. My wife ordered the Porn Star Martini (you gotta love an establishment that has a little fun with the name of their drinks) and I ordered the Long Island Iced Tea (this used to be my go-to back in my clubbing days). I knew the drinks would be delicious when I saw Joao carefully crafting the drinks as if he was bathing a newborn. Six minutes later we were sipping on our delectable drinks. In fact, the drinks were so delectable that we slowly sipped them to not finish them too quickly. We made repeated visits to The Bar during our stay in Lisbon, specifically for their Happy Hour that takes place from 5pm to 8pm. With the exception of the signature cocktails, all cocktails are $7 during Happy Hour. If you're looking to consume an adult beverage in a comfortable, cozy, and non-touristy environment...I highly recommend The Bar!

Our server informed us they close at 11 but still served us at 11:10, we apologized but he insisted we stay. This was the main reason I am going with 5 stars. This server was very kind and brought us our drink that we drank rather fast so that he could get home as soon as possible. Both of our drinks were expertly made and the ambiance only added to the experience.

My wife and I went to SEEN rooftop today (March 22, 2026) for lunch and were thoroughly impressed…read more The food was fresh and delicious, the team from the hotel staff that greeted us in the lobby, to the hostess who met us at the elevator upstairs, to the bartenders that greeted us as we walked in and to eat and every waitress that stopped by our table. All of them were friendly, welcoming and went above and beyond. Seriously, not only did they do their job, but they went out of their way to make us feel special and welcomed. It was such a great experience. Oh, did I mention the view? Amazing! The food there was great, we had mostly sushi, sashimi, tacos, etc, all of which was fresh and tasty. The wait team gave us recommendations which were spot on. No upsells, but honest and right on the money based on what we described we wanted. They knew their stuff and delivered. That was a highlight for sure. Well done, SEEN team. And as a side note, the folks - well one person in particular - who complained about the dress code, it's seriously not a "thing." It's very clearly spelled out and it's not a huge burden. Image attached. It's clearly referenced when you make a reservation, it's on their website, and it's frankly not unreasonable. We saw a range of people there and they were all welcomed. The bottom line is, this place is a nicer place. If you feel like being overly casual, or sloppy, this likely isn't the place for you. And that's totally ok. There are plenty of other rooftops you can go to and be overly casual or sloppy at and fit right in, no problem. But honestly, you have to proactively work to not meet the dress code here. Especially during lunch. All that being said, we loved this place and will definitely be back. Highly recommended!

This bar wasn't far from where we were staying and we happened to pass by here almost everyday, so we finally decided to check this place out. The bar was still super cheap, and I loved that everyone was just here to enjoy a drink and chat with friends. It gives off a local dive bar vibe, which I really liked. Apparently there's also a rooftop (I was looking at the reviews here), but we didn't get a chance to check it out as it was nighttime and raining when we visited. Overall a great spot for cheap beer and good hangs.

Came here on our last night in Lisbon to enjoy a few last caipirinhas with a view, and this place did not disappoint. We were served pretty much immediately after taking a look at the extensive bar menu and picking our poison. I went with the black caipirinha, my partner stuck to the traditional one. We walked around the back to access the upstairs patio which was relatively empty when we first got there, but filled up considerably as the night went on. You can see the top of the castle lit up at night from the rooftop patio as well as lots of the city, which is really a sight to see. Our drinks were strong and well made. Definitely stop by at some point during your trip to Lisbon!

Experiencing fado, a type of Portuguese song, is high on the list of to-dos in every Lisbon…read moreguidebook. Having experienced fado outside of Portugal I didn't feel strongly that it was a must-do, but when I found myself at night on the street that is known for fado I prioritized it. For the best fado experience I recommend an intimate space, hopefully crowded with people but also with a view to the performers. Tasca do Chico is exactly that place. The doorman told us that space was standing room only, at the (tiny) bar. From there we could see and hear the performers while ordering food and drink. We'd not been there long before we were offered an available seat at a table which caused us to order more food and drink and stay a little longer. The fado here is quite good, made even more enjoyable as the artists change quite frequently; a song or two and a new artist steps forward, all very talented and enjoyable to watch and hear. The fado places tend to have lines out the door and a doorman managing entry. A place across the street looked much bigger but the intimacy is, in my opinion, what makes the experience both unique and special. Even if you have to start at the bar, Tasca do Chico is a great place to experience fado.
