The George Pub – Lisbon’s First Traditional British Pub

Greg Boegner — Tue, 18 Feb 2025 12:02:00 +0000

The British and Portuguese have maintained, what many believe to be, the oldest friendship in history. Officially, it is called the Anglo-Portuguese Alliance, and it has been in effect since both countries signed the Treaty of Windsor in 1386. Since then, Brits have come to Portugal to enjoy the sun, wine and chicken peri-peri…and the Portuguese welcome them with open arms. A new bar/restaurant in Lisbon celebrates traditional British culture in a way that even Winston Churchill would enjoy. It’s […]

Cheesy Bar – Fine Cheese & Tasty Cocktails in Lisbon

Ann Abel — Wed, 06 Dec 2023 14:37:07 +0000

As the name suggests, Cheesy Bar is a celebration of cheese in its best possible sense: creamy, gooey, sharp, and funky goodness. And while the name might also seem to suggest some less favorable interpretations, the new bar, on a quiet street in Alcântara, is not gimmicky, kitschy, or contrived. Rather, it grew out of one Frenchman’s enduring fondness for cheese. Joris Lemaire, who helped launch BouBou’s and is now a partner in the chic Mona Verde, says, ‘Cheesy Bar […]

Imprensa Oyster & Cocktail Bar, Lisbon

Ann Abel — Sun, 29 Jan 2023 10:12:49 +0000

By the end of 2022, oyster bars had become popular in Lisbon. But three years ago, when the five bartender-founders of Imprensa had the idea to open a “Brooklyn-style” oyster bar, the concept was all but unheard-of. They stuck with it—the original signature cocktails and cool vibe probably didn’t hurt—and now that oysters have caught on in the capital, Imprensa still remains one of the best places to eat them. And it’s become so popular that it was able to […]

18.68 Cocktail Bar, Lisbon

Ann Abel — Fri, 11 Nov 2022 10:01:18 +0000

Lisbon’s Bairro Alto Hotel has long had a reputation not only as a lovely place to stay but also as an excellent place for locals to eat and drink, from the Pasteleria (famed for its pasteis de nata) on the ground floor, to the BAHR restaurant and rooftop terrace above. Now the hotel has a swank new cocktail bar of the same caliber, 18.68. 18.68 pays homage to the history of its street-level space, what was once the oldest volunteer […]
