    I came in to sit down and journal while on vacation in Lisbon. Good açaí bowls and very friendly staff. The space was very clean and there were lots of seating options available.

    The food and the staff were honestly amazing!! We were traveling and we ate there at least 5 times for breakfast and we didn't even bother eating at our hotel. The food was fresh, healthy and just right. The ambiance was just perfect! Warm and cozy, it made you feel at home. The staff! Honestly amazing! They made you feel like home and we just enjoyed their company. 100% recommend this place to anyone! Cheers to the amazing staff!!

    First meal in Lisboa was an absolute success. Nicolau's is right next to one of Lisbon's hostels. Which explains the amount of tourist who frequent (for good reason). We had a table outside because it was such a beautiful day. People were laughing and enjoying themselves, talking to neighbors. This place has a lot of energy. Food was really good too. They have a ton of options from breakfast sandwiches to salads. We spent a lot of time chatting with locals. Highly recommend stopping in.

    Nicolau should be on your list for brunch in Portugal, there's a little bit of everything to choose from here, and their food quality is stellar. I would advise to give yourself enough time to visit as there may be a wait time. My favorite from their menu probably has to be their French toast, and their orange juice is delicious as well. The waitstaff is very courteous and attentive to help, which made the experience that much more pleasant. I'd definitely would come back.

    Food was okay, not too special. The waiters honestly didn't seem happy working there/unmotivated & a bit rude. For the price it was somewhat okay, I think there are other brunch places that are worth their price nearby!

    Attentive service and pretty good pastas, we went for lunch and it was not crowded The ambiance would probably have been better for dinner

    Classic latte.

    During a 2 hour layover in Lisboa, it was recommended that we checkout this coffee and breakfast spot near city center. Thing neighborhood coffee shop with a few quaint tables, professional but warm and multi-lingual service. I opted for a breakfast sammich and a latte. Both came out well prepared and well portioned. Warm local artisan bread with eggs, Spanish ham, cheese and avocado. The latte hot the spot after a long flight and was reasonably priced at $1.8 EUR. Left the establishment with a warm belly and a warm heart. Just a great experience on a brisk Friday morning!

    Very cute inside seating-- outdoor available as well

    The ambiance was very cute and modern. Swanky I would call it. The service was very friendly, but slow (that is normal here, so don't expect a quick bite and to be off to your next activity in less than 1-2 hours!). The turmeric shot was delicious. And we enjoyed our Bowl do Frango -- it came with really flavorful purple rice, roasted sweet potato, and broccoli, and was lightly covered in a very good miso sauce. Over all it lacked flavor, but offered great nutrients and staying power. My iced chai was very bland.

    Eggs and toast

    Such a cute cafe. We came early and decided to sit outside for Covid reasons. The hostess offered to turn on the heat light and blankets. The menu comes in Portuguese and English. Our food was quick and fresh. The music selection that was being played was dope of top of the amazing service. I can see how this place gets packed so get there early. No complaints and wish them years of success!

    Very welcomed healthy option after eating nothing but bread the past week! Got the tuna salad with black rice, mango sauce, avocado etc. and it was very good! What my body needed. My friend got the chicken bowl with the poached egg, sweet potato, rice and broccoli. I also got an aperol spritz and she got the nicolau cocktail (which was definitely more of a smoothie texture but really good flavor). We sat outside in the alley way with the cutest mint green tables but the decor inside was incredibly cute as well! Super trendy black and white photographs that I wanted to buy. Service was good. Nothing spectacular but also not upset about it either. Would definitely come back for a healthy meal in the heart of Lisbon!

    Mascarpone pancakes, honey, pistachios and Iberian ham toast with arugula, Brie and balsamic.  Yum!

    Very nice surprise close to the Praca do Comercio. Food was delicious. Service slow but very friendly.

    Cappuccino and americano
    Kate A.

    Surprisingly fast service, delicious brunch options and generous portion sizes. They also let us add extra poached eggs to our selections -- which many restaurants did not allow for menu modifications during our Euro trip. Thanks for letting us get that extra protein in!

    Dirty Bagel for the win. Had an early departure and went back for a take away DB. Coconut prawns, passion fruit sangria... all the things.

    A great healthy and affordable place downtown that is very similar to your California hipster…read morehealth bars. Decent choice of salads, paninis, juices and smoothies. When we were there about an hour before closure, they did not have a lot of ingredients and could not fully make declared menu items. They also did not seem to be bothered by that at all, or offer you any substitutes without charging extra : ) After some back and forth and repeating/confirming our order, we still did not get what we wanted, but decided not to make a fuss about it. The food was fresh and tasty. Some interesting non-food additions to our salad bowls (like inedible flowers), but when in Lisbon... eat the flowers? : ) I got the strawberry ginger lemonade, and it was actually one of the best fresh drinks I have ever had. I highly recommend it - super tasty and refreshing. Overall, it was pretty good. One star down for customer service oopsies.

    I was unimpressed with this place. When we ordered, they were very big on having us come back…read more(before even trying the food) and tried pushing the masseuse upstairs. We explained we weren't interested and they continued to explain the health benefits of a massage. When we got upstairs, the masseuse was very nice but was cleaning the tables and we were offered her services, again. We waited an exorbitant amount of time for our food, and while the presentation was cute, the food was tasteless. I asked for a side of the granola just to have something to eat. The ambiance is cute, but unfortunately that's all I give it.

We had a perfect breakfast for our last day in Lisbon. Service was impeccable, and the food was excellent. We started with Cappuccino, juice of the day and a Bloody Mary to celebrate. The Bloody Mary was spicy and refreshing and went great with my eggs Benedict. We also had the French toast with berries, seasoned fruit and avocado toast. All were a "don't miss" on this menu. Truly was the perfect end to our stay in Lisbon. Obrigada!

    Worth Going Out Of Your Way…read more.... On our annual vacation, my wife and I were fortunate enough to get a reservation for 3 nights at the Santiago de Alfama hotel. Audrey's is their primary restaurant and we sampled 2 breakfasts, 1 lunch and 1 dinner. Here are the pros and cons. Pros: - In keeping with the hotel, everything is beautiful in a subtle manner. Call it "down-to-earth elegance". - Breakfast: The a la carte menu offered some of the best breakfast foods we've ever had. Examples: Fresh granola and berries with Greek yogurt. THE BEST EVER! Home baked breads and pastries. Orange juice that's pure and not too sweet. Bagel and lox to please the purists. Service was provided by a trio of very friendly, attentive and helpful young women. - Lunch: We ate on the patio in front of the hotel. I had a super tasty vegetarian Thai dish while my wife had a big salad. They were accompanied by the best Sangria in ages. Sweet, but not too much. - Dinner: The dining room is very attractive yet understated like the hotel. Comfortably modern European. Food was impeccable. Tomato salad was large and amazing. My wife's dish focusing on baked cod was large and filling. My polenta with mushroom ragu was immense and full of flavor. Breads are baked daily and almost as good as dessert. Speaking of dessert, mine was a fantastic chocolate mousse while my wife had fresh berries with a massive amount of the best homemade whipped cream. Wine was a local Chardonnay - an excellent choice - for a reasonable $30. - Prices for such a Michelin star experience are considerably lower than you'd expect in the US. Con: - While the food at dinner was fantastic, service was perfunctory. Our server, a pleasant young woman, covered the basics...but nothing more. During our 90 minute meal, she NEVER asked "how are you doing?" Can I get you anything?" We ordered a bottle of wine, but NOT ONCE did she offer to refill our glasses. She didn't speak an unrequired word. The man seemingly managing the room barely acknowledged us. The guy clearing dishes was the ONLY ONE to ask if we wanted coffee or tea. The restaurant was nearly empty. Did we not spend enough? Did we do something wrong? What a way to put a damper on a glorious meal. However, as well-behaved Americans, we left a 15% tip. The next day, we spoke with Martim Neves Carneiro from Guest Relations who was very receptive to our information. He said "they are part of a new nighttime crew and will need remedial help". How very true. Despite those hesitations, Audrey's certainly deserves 5 stars.
