Dirty Bagel for the win. Had an early departure and went back for a take away DB. Coconut prawns, passion fruit sangria... all the things.

I came in to sit down and journal while on vacation in Lisbon. Good açaí bowls and very friendly staff. The space was very clean and there were lots of seating options available. read more

Nicolau should be on your list for brunch in Portugal, there's a little bit of everything to choose from here, and their food quality is stellar. I would advise to give yourself enough time to visit as there may be a wait time. My favorite from their menu probably has to be their French toast, and their orange juice is delicious as well. The waitstaff is very courteous and attentive to help, which made the experience that much more pleasant. I'd definitely would come back. read more

First meal in Lisboa was an absolute success. Nicolau's is right next to one of Lisbon's hostels. Which explains the amount of tourist who frequent (for good reason). We had a table outside because it was such a beautiful day. People were laughing and enjoying themselves, talking to neighbors. This place has a lot of energy. Food was really good too. They have a ton of options from breakfast sandwiches to salads. We spent a lot of time chatting with locals. Highly recommend stopping in. read more

Food was okay, not too special. The waiters honestly didn't seem happy working there/unmotivated & a bit rude. For the price it was somewhat okay, I think there are other brunch places that are worth their price nearby! read more

long waits as tourists love this spot. i had plenty of time to wait so i waited for a seat outside. definitely needed some healthiness in me, so i started with a protein banana strawberry shake i also got the shrimp tacos - which were okay. it took a while and they said everything was freshly made, but i felt it was kind of cold. overall it was good, loved my smoothie read more

During a 2 hour layover in Lisboa, it was recommended that we checkout this coffee and breakfast spot near city center. Thing neighborhood coffee shop with a few quaint tables, professional but warm and multi-lingual service. I opted for a breakfast sammich and a latte. Both came out well prepared and well portioned. Warm local artisan bread with eggs, Spanish ham, cheese and avocado. The latte hot the spot after a long flight and was reasonably priced at $1.8 EUR. Left the establishment with a warm belly and a warm heart. Just a great experience on a brisk Friday morning! read more

The ambiance was very cute and modern. Swanky I would call it. The service was very friendly, but slow (that is normal here, so don't expect a quick bite and to be off to your next activity in less than 1-2 hours!). The turmeric shot was delicious. And we enjoyed our Bowl do Frango -- it came with really flavorful purple rice, roasted sweet potato, and broccoli, and was lightly covered in a very good miso sauce. Over all it lacked flavor, but offered great nutrients and staying power. My iced chai was very bland. read more

Such a cute cafe. We came early and decided to sit outside for Covid reasons. The hostess offered to turn on the heat light and blankets. The menu comes in Portuguese and English. Our food was quick and fresh. The music selection that was being played was dope of top of the amazing service. I can see how this place gets packed so get there early. No complaints and wish them years of success! read more

Very welcomed healthy option after eating nothing but bread the past week! Got the tuna salad with black rice, mango sauce, avocado etc. and it was very good! What my body needed. My friend got the chicken bowl with the poached egg, sweet potato, rice and broccoli. I also got an aperol spritz and she got the nicolau cocktail (which was definitely more of a smoothie texture but really good flavor). We sat outside in the alley way with the cutest mint green tables but the decor inside was incredibly cute as well! Super trendy black and white photographs that I wanted to buy. Service was good. Nothing spectacular but also not upset about it either. Would definitely come back for a healthy meal in the heart of Lisbon! read more

Honestly, don't waste your time or money here. We came here for brunch because of the pretty food photos but were disappointed. The coffee here is terrible. We ordered espresso and they gave us something different, it tasted like coffee pot coffee and had a burnt taste to it. The food was okay, nothing special. The staff was also okay, they were just there to take your order and not much else. read more

If you're hovering near Praça do Comércio, then you are a few short steps away from Nicolau, where you can rest and replenish your body with fuel and food. Nice spot for brunch type food but my impression of all brunch food in the city of Lisbon to be the same. It's just okay. Lots of Açaí bowls which is far better than their American versions. I can only comment on the smoothie and the Açaí bowl, where both are great. read more

We are breakfast/brunch people and are always seeking out fun and unique places to try, especially when we travel. Nicolau Lisboa was one of several places on our list while we were in Lisbon. Two of us came on a Saturday and the line was so long we went elsewhere (to a place I won't be writing a review about, nor recommending to others). Sunday was a solo exploration day and I was completely at my leisure so didn't mind the 40ish min wait for a table. What struck me during that wait was how well coordinated all the staff seemed to be. It was PACKED inside and out, there appeared to be 4 servers working together to service all guests, plus one barista whipping out sooooo many beverages, and an expo who also ran the occasional order. Every server helped man every station, from bussing tables, taking orders, cashing out, running food, mopping the floor (it was raining a bit), and answering any random question or guest request, all with patience, kindness, and often a genuine smile. It was truly incredible to watch...like a perfectly choreographed dance in what otherwise looked like pure insanity. Organized chaos in the best possible way. The food - delicious and served surprisingly fast for how busy they were. I'm Celiac, and while they didn't have GF bread (one thing that would have made this a 10 instead of a 9.5 for me), it was very easy to modify their existing menu to meet my needs. I ordered the Eggs Florentine benedict, minus the bread, added avocado, bacon, and a couple slices of cheese, and it was filling, delish, and beautifully presented. I also ordered a wake up shot, Nicolau's Cocktail, and a cappuccino, all great and worth trying. Service was wonderful...attentive, but relaxed and not overbearing. I ordered a second round of drinks and that process took a bit more time, as the barista was slammed with orders, but never once did I feel like I was being rushed or ignored. We had some great dining experiences during our travels, but from the food to the service to the lively atmosphere, Nicolau's Lisboa ranked as one of my favorites! A+, highly recommend! read more

This café has one of the coolest interiors I've ever seen. I wasn't able to get a table outside since it was packed, but the ambiance inside was great. I ordered a soy latte and buckwheat pancakes. Both were really good! The menu was a bit overwhelming, but I appreciated the allergy labels. Overall, I was super impressed with the branding of the place and I'd definitely return. read more

They didnt bring enough glasses and when those were brought to the table they were dirty. There was no system with anything! I am very patient and considerate but this was out right poor service. As I looked around the outside seating area I noticed the server continued to walk past black patrons to serve others. This place should do better. Lastly food was just ok... read more

I ate at Nicolau both in Porto and Lisbon and both are amazing places. The food is fresh, very colorful and incredibly tasty. The menu has various options ranging from sweet to savory and both locations have outdoor seating. Please note in Porto, they ask for you to check in an put your name on a list whereas in Lisbon you just wait on line. Everyone looked very happy with their food and I know we were thrilled with ours. The space is also very warm and inviting. It was a pleasure eating there and the staff was great! I would highly recommend this spot to anyone. The food is truly wonderful and the atmosphere is very inviting. I'm going to miss Nicolau read more

Sry delicious breakfast! Chose this place due to gluten free options for my friend. Waitress was friendly and atmosphere is lively without being too loud. Perfect for brunch!

It's one thick pancake so it was too much to finish but definitely taking it home! read more

Great brunch option with a little bit of everything on the menu. There was a small wait for a table, but it was organized and moved relatively quickly. One of the servers was also operating as the "hostess" and managing the waiting list. There was a sign, written in English, indicating that you should check in with the hostess to get on the list. There's a decent amount of seating, both indoors and outdoors. Once you're seated, service is prompt and food comes relatively quickly. They clearly operate on a relatively strong turnover of the tables to accomodate all the guests. The menu offers a ton of options: granola and fruit bowls, eggs, avocado toast, pancakes. I opted to get the avocado toast with poached eggs on top. It was a very satisfying and tasty brunch. My friend ordered a coconut and granola bowl and enjoyed it immensely. Coffee was good too. I'd definitely recommend checking this place out for a brunch. read more

Super cute and affordable brunch spot in Lisbon! There is a bit of a line, so prepare yourself, but it did move fairly quickly. Nicolau has a pretty robust menu of your usual brunch favorites, but also some unique ones. I ordered the French toast which came with a side of fresh fruit and Greek yogurt - super yummy! I loved how fresh the fruit was. I'm used to extremely over-sweetened French toast, so I was really happy to find out that Nicolau doesn't douse their French toast in sugar :) What was most surprising was the prices - this place is incredibly affordable and each entree is portioned fairly well. We would happily come back to Nicolau next time we are in Lisbon. read more

We were in Lisbon for 4 days and Nicolau offered a nice break from cheese and ham toasties for breakfast. The place is adorable, with turquoise tiles and pastel details. It's quite different from the more traditional cafes and looks like it could belong in New York City. In fact, most of the restaurant goers were tourists. We had the avocado toast, a chai tea latte, yogurt bowl and a smoothie. Everything was delicious. Although, I will agree with one of the other reviewers that the avocado toast could benefit from some additional flavor. My boyfriend and I both commented that the chai tea latte was one of the best we'd ever had. The prices were pretty unbeatable as well. I highly suggest stopping in next time you're in Lisbon! read more
