    Food was so good. We had gone here through a recommendation on Tiktok and it did not disappoint. Their coffee was also really good as well. They do not take reservation so there was a little bit of a wait for three people. I think it was about 30 minutes but we didn't mind. There are a lot of cute houses in the area so we did a little photoshoot. The cafe is decorated really well, the walls are graffitied by guests that have visited. Staff was super friendly, answered all of our questions, and food was served in a timely manner.

    Service, food, and ambiance were all amazing. My perfect first stop after arriving in Lisbon!

    If there were 6 stars available, I would give them all to Seagull Method! First, it was a trek to get there from my hotel. At one point our taxi driver was like, too far, get out, and then we had to walk the rest of the way. Needless to say I was hungry by the time our name was called. It's a small cafe, but these breakfast dishes were amazing! I had the savory pancakes. They came with green onions, a poached egg, and avocado. Each bite of the pancake had the perfect amount of savoriness, I really thought, who needs syrup? We also had avocado toast, with scrambled eggs and bacon and the most perfect pickled red onions. Bonus points: I ordered a homemade lemonade, which was amazing. Then the waitress came back and simply said, "champagne is free today, can I interest you in some?" You guys know my answer!

    Amazing breakfast place! Atmosphere is very urban and quaint. Make sure to book a reservation in advance or come close to its opening, as there might be a wait. The service was good, but the workers could be more friendly. Overall, amazing food and great spot to start your day is Lisbon!

    Holly Tortilla + Jesus, Mushrooms. Additional sides of halloumi and bacon. Croissant not pictured.

    10/10. Quite a bit of a wait, probably 30 minutes (bad timing on our end and they don't take reservations) but man, am I happy we decided to wait. This place was classics with unexpected flavor twists. Lots of vegetarian options. Worth the hype, come eat here, you won't regret it. Cute and cozy but not stuffy, refreshing but intimate enough. I got the holy tortilla and my husband got the Jesus, mushrooms. Both amazing. Star of the show was the caramel almond praline croissant. This croissant is my new religion.

    Cute cafe for brunch in Lisbon! Got the corn fritters and they were delicious. Keep in mind they're heavy on the corn so unless you LOVE corn I wouldn't get it. The coffee was DELICIOUS. And they folks working were very nice and attentive.

    Food was fresh and delicious. Cafe is small and casual place for lunch. There was a slight wait. Service was wonderful. All the servers were very attentive.

    Super kid friendly restaurant with fantastic food and service. We are a group of 4 adults and one child, we had latte, breakfast burger, Ooohh la la, spice girls and an espresso shot. The food were well presented and the flavor was top notch! Coffee was excellent as well! All of us are so satisfied with our food. They were so kind to provide the drawing books and color pens for the kid. And the price was so much worth it! Highly recommend this place!

    Great vibe. Food was creative and tasty. I had French toast with mushrooms. Got the extra cheese, not worth it. Worth going to for brunch! Viby for sure.

    Toast with scrambled eggs and salmon

    Just perfect place for brunch and breakfast. Food is delicious and looks great. Everything is freshly cooked. They serve very good coffee. Atmosphere is very cozy Service is friendly. Dogs are welcome. It's better to make a reservation in advance. I will come back here for sure.

    Absolutely incredible food!!! Great menu and had the most amazing experience. We got the matcha cottage cheese pancakes which were dreamy and delicious. And the Friday morning which was perfectly paired! The drinks are amazing and wr got free champagne. Would go here again for sure!!

    Avocado Toast with Feta

    Hidden gem. I wish we could've found this place sooner. Perfect breakfast, atmosphere, food quality and creativity, service and prices. This is one of that cases when you would be even surprised with the way how the scrambled eggs can be perfectly cooked. Cottage cheese pancakes "Syrniki" -no words, amazing! Very good coffee and free water :) Highly recommend this place.

    I love the originality of this place. I had the chai latte which was very good. Also had the fritters and smashed which had a very good taste but I felt something was missing to make it less dry. I would definitely come Back to try something else.

    Manteigaria is a charming little shop that delivers one of the most satisfying and authentic pastel…read morede nata experiences you will find in Lisbon. What makes it special is watching the pastries being handmade right in front of you, which adds a level of freshness and craftsmanship that you can actually taste. The service was super fast and friendly. The pastel de nata came out perfectly, with that delicate flaky crust and warm custard that just hits differently when you know it was made moments ago. The espresso was equally impressive, rich and smooth, and the two together make for a simple but near perfect combination. If you are in the area, this is an easy and very satisfying stop.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Oh no. Am I the only one who doesn't like the pastel de nata custard tarts this restaurant is so…read morefamous for? The crust was super flaky and the tart was nice and warm out of the oven, but I didn't like the flavor of the custard. I did forget to add cinnamon to the top, but I don't think it would have helped me personally. The woman who stood next to me at the counter had a nearly orgasmic experience next to me, so it's obvious that my taste buds are apparently off. I loved the patience of the server, who got confused when I told her I wanted to eat in but wanted to take water to go. Note to self...Portuguese folks want to have their "to go" as "takeaway." What I also didn't know was that there was no place to sit!! I scooted down the counter just like all the other folks to watch the bakers prep the next gozillion pastries for the day. That was interesting. Then, I didn't know how to bus my dishes. I just left them on the counter like all the other folks and went away. I wouldn't skip going because of my personal taste buds, though. Enjoy it for yourself and let me know if you have a different opinion than I did!

    This was the best, family run, local restaurant we've encounter on our 3 week honeymoon trip. The…read moreowners, Cristina and Antonio, went above and beyond in serving us. From the moment we were seated, Cristina took her time in welcoming us and explaining every item on the menu. We got extremely lucky in beating the dinner rush and submitting our orders in. The subsequent groups who came in were simply turned away or quoted at least an hr wait. Even with full house, our foods came in a reasonable time. With her recommendation, we went with seafood bake for 2 and BBQ pork in 4 diff cuts (we wanted to try a little bit of everything). The seafood bake was beyond amazing - there were literally 4 diff types of WHOLE fish (cod, salmon, bass?, can't tell the last one), along with dozen of fresh shrimp with shells still on and clams! The pot felt bottomless with seafood. It took us literally an hr just to power through this dish. The seafood bake's sauce was so yummy that my husband started throwing in his side potato to soak up the flavor. Towards the end, he straight up spooned and drank it. The bbq pork was so juicy and flavorful! My husband really enjoyed the bacon cut - fatty yet crispy. The side salad was so refreshing with its light, house made dressing. Honestly, we couldn't be any happier with our dinner! Too bad we were so stuffed that we didn't get to try their desserts. What an incredible meal! Amazing food and heartwarming service - Cristina even took the time to come by our table to check and chat with us during dinner rush - we couldn't ask for more. Price was a steal especially for how much food we got - around 50 Euros. Would definitely return if we ever revisit Lisbon!

    After wandering around -- really and truly -- the streets of Lisbon looking for a restaurant that…read morehad vegetarian options or non-shellfish or cod fish options, we landed at Madragoa Cafe. We were peeking at the menu outside when the owner, Christina, ushered us in and assured us she'd prepare something to our liking. She did not disappoint. We each started with a drink; my colleague had a beer and I had a red wine. We shared a cheese appetizer and olive appetizer. The cheese was very...fragrant?...but seriously delicious and creamy. It was served with a side of honey which we both drizzled on our bread with each (admittedly three total for each of us) serving. For our mains, we had fish. I had the salmon, served with stewed vegetables and salad. He had the cod entree. We were both initiated into the clean-plate club, with very little left for rinsing. For dessert we tried the carob mousse (my favorite!) and the chocolate cake (delicious, but the mousse takes the cake -- no pun intended). The waiter, Antonio, was an absolute gem, and treated us to a digestif following our dessert. Having already had two glasses of wine, I should have passed on the digestif, but when in Lisbon, you do as Antonio tells you. I had the most fantastic evening with Christina and her crew, and upon future visits to Lisbon I will make it a must to visit again.
