Tapas bar Lisbon

Is it more of a restaurant or a bar? There's no way to tell. The philosophy here is: eat, drink, dance and repeat. A little more friendly than the classic metro-business-sleep. The establishment proposes natural wines and seasonal cuisine but goes further than that, since it seeks to have a direct and close link with the producers. The will of the two creators of Tricky's is to create a place where you can spend your whole evening from the aperitif to the end of the night. The plus: you will be received as a regular of the house.

If you see a crowd next to the São Paulo square, it's normal, you've arrived at the Tabacaria, a very popular bar in the neighborhood. Rather chic, the prices are not cheap but here you will have home made cocktails, created on the spot. Inside, it has kept some old-fashioned elements, including a large wooden counter and stained glass windows. It almost feels like an old pharmacy. This is perhaps the reason why this place was transformed into a spirit laboratory... Some tapas are also available to accompany your cocktails.

The philosophy of this restaurant is that the best food is the one shared with friends. Here you will find all kinds of tapas, from chicken skewers with peanut sauce to fried calamari and chicken quesadillas. There are also typical petiscos like pasteis de bacalhau or pimentos padron (small grilled peppers). Located in a quiet street, you can sit on the terrace and enjoy the nice weather or inside for more privacy.

Located on the corner of a street with bay windows that give you a view of the lively neighborhood, this bar welcomes you in a slightly rustic, retro yet elegant atmosphere. The manager, Ugne Kris, comes to us straight from the Sem restaurant and wanted to do more than just another wine bar. As a result, the tapas menu has been carefully thought out, using fresh, local ingredients for the most part. The wine selection changes regularly, so there's no wine list, just shelves with bottles and prices underneath.
