I've been wanting to visit this "shopping mall" in Chiado since we first arrived a few weeks ago simply because it was within a short walking distance to our apartment in Bairro-Alto; and, being in fashionable Chiado, I had high-hopes to do some Christmas shopping. We had some time before hitting a few spots and arrived 10-minutes before its 10:00 am opening. We decided to wait and finally check it out. This is a very small mall! The 6th floor "food court" was only an escalator ride up from what we presumed was the first floor (which was a short staircase walk up from the entry doors). It was a very limited, sort of sad-looking food court (granted, nothing was open for business at 10 am)--for a shopping mall, it was just about the smallest food court I've ever seen. Naturally, there was a McDonald's; all the other food store fronts were mainstream and uneventful. For us, it was very disappointing since there was nothing for plant-based eaters. Rather than the mall going upwards, this one goes down--or rather, downhill...! The stores were mainstream and bland, and practically all geared to women. The ubiquitous "Mango" anchored the bottom two levels; a lot of perfumeries and such littered the other levels. There was a "Lego" store; but that was overpriced, too. The other "anchor" store was a two-floor electronics and book store--at least we were interested since it had an Apple section. I think we were out of Armazéns do Chiado in less than 30-minutes. The entire experience was something on the level of, "Seriously???" This place gets 2-stars because of the electronics store (which seemed to be seriously overpriced). Been there, done that...! :P read more
