Drinks & Nightlife
A Tabacaria
75 Rua de S. PauloNice little bar with vintage decoration.
The wines served here are from around Lisbon, or more specifically from Azeitão to the south of the city. It’s run by a company founded in 1834, so you can expect good quality wines. They may be served by the wine and go together with Iberian “petiscos” (tapas). The arched space with thousands of bottles covering the ceiling was made to look like a wine cellar, and is divided into different rooms.

Who would have thought that a former bakery would turn into one of the trendiest bars in Bairro Alto? Some of the furniture and machinery (including a wood oven on the wall) remain from the bakery. It has a welcoming ambience and an atypically-large interior (by Bairro Alto standards), but of course most still prefer to follow the old Bairro Alto tradition by standing outside. On weekdays the sounds are relaxing lounge music, while on weekends it tends to be house.
