Night life
A typical night in Lisbon starts in Chiado’s cafes, these places are often used as a meeting point before dinner. After dinner, we suggest visiting the bars in Bairro Alto, open until 2 am. To end the night, we recommend you move down by the river to the docks of Alcantara, home to several bars and clubs.
If you don’t appreciate bars and clubs, you can always spend the evening at a Fado House, scattered in various locations around the city.
