Sun and Sights in Lisbon<br />

At this low-key modern café, music, magazines and<br />

sandwiches are as important as the coffee. Com Alma<br />

means “with soul”.<br />

Café Martinho da Arcada<br />

Attractively tiled in blue and white, this bustling café<br />

serves good-value lunches at the counter. A few tables<br />

are arranged inside; there are more outside under the<br />

arcades. The restaurant next door is more famous, but<br />

this is a quintessential Lisbon location.<br />

Esplanada Céu de Lisboa<br />

Climb the spiral staircase after ascending the lift<br />

from the Baixa and you will be treated to a graphic<br />

overview of downtown Lisbon. Coffee, drinks and snacks<br />

are overpriced, but would you expect otherwise?<br />

A Ginjinha<br />

Ginjinha is Portuguese cherry liqueur and this tiny<br />

bar serves virtually nothing else. A Ginjinha has survived<br />

for over 150 years on sheer single-mindedness.<br />

10 O’Gilins<br />

Lisbon’s first Irish pub is still the city’s best, popular<br />

with students and expats alike. There is live music at<br />

weekends.<br />
