Sobre Lisboa
Lisbon unfolds between its hills and the River Tagus, through cobbled streets, tiled façades and viewpoints overlooking the rooftops. Portugal’s capital invites you to pair its major monuments with the small pleasures of neighbourhood life: coffee at an outdoor table, an unhurried wander down a side street or a quiet moment by the river.
Neighbourhoods with different stories
In Alfama and Mouraria, narrow lanes and stairways invite exploration on foot. Lisbon Cathedral and São Jorge Castle offer an introduction to the old city, while the Portas do Sol viewpoint looks out over Alfama and the Tagus. For another perspective, head uphill to Graça and the Senhora do Monte viewpoint.
In Baixa Pombalina, rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake, the orderly street grid contrasts with the hillside neighbourhoods. Walk from Rossio to Praça do Comércio along Rua Augusta, then continue beside the river at Ribeira das Naus. Above Baixa, Chiado brings together bookshops, theatres and cafés; after dark, Bairro Alto is one of the city’s liveliest areas.
Belém and the waterfront
Set aside time for Belém, where the Jerónimos Monastery and Belém Tower form a UNESCO World Heritage site. Combine the historic sights with a waterfront stroll and a stop for a pastel de Belém custard tart. To the east, Parque das Nações reveals another side of the capital, shaped by the urban transformation for Expo 98, contemporary architecture and waterside promenades.
Local flavours and time to wander
At the table, explore salt cod dishes, petiscos — small dishes to share — and pastéis de nata custard tarts. Fado offers another way into Lisbon’s culture, particularly in Alfama and Mouraria.
Plan your visit around neighbouring areas and allow time for hills and steps. Wear comfortable shoes for the cobbled streets and combine walking with public transport for longer journeys. Between monuments, leave room for the moments that need no itinerary: watching the river, discovering a square or lingering at a viewpoint.

I got the francesinha a moda do Porto, I can’t recommend it enough. The steak inside was cooked perfectly and very tender and the sauce was so flavorful. I suggest getting fries to soak up any leftover sauce, you’re not going to want to leave any on the plate
The food was delicious and the quality of the meat is spectacular. I would like to highlight the friendliness, cordiality, and helpfulness of the staff. The service and the experience was very good. I highly recommend it.
We got the francesinha sandwich with steak, bacon, and chorizo which was INCREDIBLE. 5/5. Don’t get the plain fries thought… they were quite plain and unsalted (2/5).
Absolutely amazing food! Everything we tried was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The portions are generous, so come hungry! The staff is super friendly and very quick, even when the place gets really busy — which it definitely does in the evening. But that just shows how great this restaurant is! Highly recommended, we’ll definitely be coming back. 🤤❤️
Superb! Probably the best Francesinhas in Lisbon!!! I was long overdue to go to Taberna Londrina Campo Grande and finally treat myself with one of their delicious dishes. Being that they're more popularly known for their Francesinhas, i decided to order the best one they have available: Bife de Lombo. Despite the steeper price tag i soon realised that the 19€ were absolutely justified thanks to the quality of the food. The Francesinha is extremely tasty, the meat is tender and juicy and the sauce is creamy while keeping a light and liquid texture. The french fries come in a generous serving considering the affordable price (in comparison with other competitor restaurants) and taste like prime home-made fries. I would only add a bit more salt to them, but all in all, they're great. Finally the desert. I went with the Oreo mousse, mixed the oreo with the cream and it was, quite frankly, one of the best restaurant desserts i've ever had. It's a bit expensive considering the ammount served (see the picture below). Something this small has has no right being so delicious as i went through the whole thing in about a minute and a half and practically without lifting my gaze off the dessert cup. Yeah, it's that good. Suffice it to say that it was a great first experience, i downloaded their app (yes, they an app that allows you to accumulate points everytime you go there! How nice is that?) and i intend to go there again soon to gorge on one more of their Francesinhas. Ps: The burgers also have great reputation!
