This was incredible, not only for the food, but also the experience. We came right when it opened,…read moreso it wasn't very crowded yet, but we were lucky enough to get taken to the back and pick out our cheeses with help from the staff. We ended up getting three from Portugal (all different types), a blue from Spain, and a pecorino from Italy. We also got a salad with burrata, as well as a plate of Portuguese ham. Everything was outstanding, but the Spanish blue was the biggest standout for me. I really can't recommend this place enough -- the staff was fantastic, and the food was even better.

This was a great random find. We were strolling the streets and saw this cute cheese and wine shop…read more We stopped in and was greeted by the owner, who spent about 30 minutes one on one with us giving us tons of samples and explaining away about his cheese products. They also sell cured meats and wine. The place is split into two parts. One side is more of a market, and the other side is the tasting room. After the sampling, we sat down and ordered our plates and some wine and kicked back to an amazing meal. The server was great and they even had high chairs. We were the only ones in the whole place too so that helped. It is nicely decorated and well priced. What else can be better?!

There's a variety of options and cuisines available, plus beers, wine and cocktails for purchase. I would leave small children at home with a babysitter, as trying to maneuver through the crowds with a stroller is just too much to deal with. We liked the tacos, burgers and pad Thai. Desserts are also available.

Not until I went to Lisbon's Time Out Market did I grow excited about my place of lodging being a…read moremere 5-minute walk from here. I'd been to other Time Out Markets, in the US, and found them places which I had little desire to return to. Not this one, to which I returned at least 3 other times. It wasn't just the easy appeal of an amply-poured glass of great wine at an equally great price, but the whole vibe of the place, featuring the best of Portugal's best. Literally, everything looked appealing here; choosing what to eat to accompany that wine? That was my sole dilemma. One side of this place has eateries that feature really well-priced nightly specials, often selling out, which gives you an idea of their popularity. I frequently found myself in another stretch of the place, opting for a wonderfully fresh sushi platter that ran about $30US. If you do nothing more than come for food and drink you'll likely not notice that there's a really wonderful, artsy shop (A Vida Portuguesa) that features unique and beautiful gifts for yourself or others. Also, a bookstore upstairs and, during the daytime, a huge farmer's market/green-grocery in another space attached to the main hall, but easily overlooked. I highly recommend this Time Out Market, even suggesting you plan your stay to be in close proximity. That's how much I liked it.

If the fish isn't sold the day before, they will sell it for a cheaper price the next morning. There are also a few shops with fresh flowers, cheese, bread, nuts, and cooked meats. Not a ton when it comes to prepared food for you to sit and consume but their selection of fruits and veggies are absolutely gorgeous! I would say it leans more towards locals coming to this market but definitely check it out!!

The place is super cute and they have a great variety of cheese to choose from. The only gripe I have is with the staff. We were the only people in there and it seemed like we were inconveniencing the ladies working there. We had to ask for several things that we felt should've been complimentary with our board; like bread. The wine wasn't anything snazzy, like most of the Portuguese wine I tasted over a few days. They didn't smile or ask if we needed anything and they only cracked a genuine smile when we tipped them at the end of our visit.

They have a lot of cheeses from Portugal, which are hard to find and expensive in the U.S. There are other delicacies like pata negra, jams, cookies, wine and more. I was able to pick up quite a few things for souvenirs. Cheeses like Azeitao, easily over $20 a wheel at Whole Foods Market in the U.S., are only 7 euro here. What's even better than the price is that the manager can vacuum pack and seal the cheeses for me, with a little machine, so it was a breeze packing them into my luggage. There is no room for eating in, though you can most certainly have them prepare a sandwich or cheese platter to go.
