Where to have lunch on the go Lisbon

This French bakery is now located in a small street overlooking the square opposite the entrance to the Museo d'Arte Antiga (rua da Janelas Verdes). Don't let the name fool you, this is not a traditional French bakery. You'll find French baguettes and viennoiseries, but it also serves hearty breakfasts from 8am, lunches and brunches all day long. The menu has recently been revamped, with açaí bowls for those who prefer lighter breakfasts.

Fancy a pizza that tastes like Italy? Despite the growing number of pizzerias in Lisbon, this one remains among the best and most famous. It has moved from a street in Alfama to the modern part of the city. The principle remains the same and so does the menu. The space, however, is much bigger and there are even some tables outside. It is open one more day as a bonus, what more could you ask for? We tested the 4 cheeses and we adhere, the pastry is crunchy and tasty, no doubt it is home made..

Formerly Casa do Carmo, this pretty old-fashioned pastry shop (it dates from 1787!), made entirely of stucco and chromos, in the no less beautiful Carmo square, was frequented by Fernando Pessoa. Ideal for a break after climbing the Chiado hill, while enjoying the atmosphere of the square. A friendly place, in summer and winter alike, overrun by students from the nearby school. This reinforces the village atmosphere, which is very relaxing after shopping. Perfect for a sandwich or a sweetness; the dishes are not too expensive, especially indoors.

Near the praça de Londres, designed in 1946, the Arty house is still managed by the same family today. Completely remodelled in 1962, the particularity of this pastelaria-restaurant lies in its very colourful interior coverings, supported by a wall clock surrounded by geometric motifs and a ceramic panel signed by master Querubim Lapa. In the basement, the restaurant serves duck water or cod lagarada... In addition to enjoying the space, for its outdated beauty, you will also enjoy its terrace.

A typical Lisbon address, inside the Time out Market, with a view on fruits and vegetables. You can eat traditional dishes of the day such as sea bream. The walls are filled with azulejos, with matching tablecloths, in yellow and blue, and a large brick bar. Special feature: the house is open all night long, so you can come and have a bite to eat at any time. Recently the opinions have become mixed on the quality of the dishes served. The address is probably a victim of the success of the market, which is always full. It is necessary to hang on to have a place.
