Sun and Sights in Lisbon<br />

5 Catacumbas<br />

This is a highly civilized, café-like jazz bar. There is<br />

live music occasionally; customers sometimes play the<br />

piano too.<br />

Clube da Esquina<br />

Well on the way to classic status, the “Corner Club”<br />

is a chatty, crowded, yet relaxed place whose well-lit<br />

interior with exposed wooden beams has framed many<br />

a good start to a Bairro Alto night.<br />

7 Velvet<br />

This bar has an intimate atmosphere flowing from<br />

its use of candlelight and theatrically contrasting<br />

furnishings. The music also helps: there are DJs and live<br />

acts. Wednesday is jazz night.<br />

8 Etílico<br />

Comfy sofas and a varied group of resident DJs are<br />

assets of this brightly coloured DJ bar with a friendly<br />

vibe.<br />

Clube do Mercado<br />

A keen, studenty crowd hangs out at this serious<br />

DJ bar with mainly black music, lots of old furniture –<br />

and free fresh fruit. Spiritually it is in Bairro Alto, even if<br />

technically it falls just outside.<br />

Pavilhão Chinês<br />

Among the oldest bars in Bairro Alto, this place has<br />

something completely different. Its series of rooms is<br />

decorated with collections of dolls, Airfix models, hats,<br />

coasters and the like.<br />
