The Time Out market in the old Mercado da Ribeira at Cais do Sodré brings many Lisbon kitchens under one roof. It is a good start, and the streets around it have more to offer.
In the market
Go at opening time or mid-afternoon to find a seat. Try a bifana, grilled fish and a custard tart, and share plates so you can taste more stalls.
Around the corner
- Small tascas on the side streets serve a fixed lunch menu with soup, a main and coffee.
- Seafood bars along the river front open late and fill up after nine.
- Pink Street has bars for a drink after dinner.
Good to know
The fresh market in the same building opens in the morning and closes around lunchtime. Cais do Sodré station is next door, with trains to Cascais and the ferry across the river.
