    Order standing at the counter (a bica if you like espresso and a galão if a latte is more your thing). Also, we recommend the custard tarts and codfish croquettes (pastéis de bacalhau).

    Nice place to sit and to order a coffee. Since it is mentioned in every guide it is always crowded. Don't forget to take some pictures inside the cafe and one with statue of poet Fernando Pessoa.

    As others suggested - order standing at the bar. A bica (=espresso) or a pingado (bica with little milk) and a pastel de nata will only set you back 1,70 €. Beautiful place.

    One of the oldest cafes in Lisbon. Great option for brunch. Sit outside to people watch. Fresh pastel de natas too.

    If you are going to just have a coffee or light snack in the cafe portion, realize that standing at the counter is cheaper than sitting, which is cheaper than sitting outside!

    Get a double espresso, a couple of pasteis de nata, and a couple of hours for people-watching.

    Extravagant cafe in a Bohemian district, opened in 1905 with an Art Deco interior & pavement tables.

    Get a Galao or espresso and people watch from outside on the patio! Great little historic spot to sit and relax with tasty coffee.

    Careful which seat you choose. Along the sidewalk you’ll be harassed by beggars. Sit next to this statue and you’ll have a constant stream of tourists taking pictures.

    Take an espresso at the espresso bar, it's only €0.70 and is a lovely historic place to enjoy it.

    Was a disappointment after being highly recommended. The staff are rude and were shouting at me for taking a few photos. The coffee was less than average. The cream pie was very good though.

    Excellent coffee! Try the pasteis de nata. They are better than in many other places in Lisbon.

    No miss coffee stop in Chiado. Normal food and a bit overpriced but it is mandatory to have a "bica" (small coffee) outside next to the statue of Fernando Pessoa :)

    Fernando Pessoa used to come here. The coffee and the chocolate are really great, but the waiter was arrogant. Thus, I confirmed the fame of this place, both for the coffee and service.

    It's cosy, coffee is better than in other places, if you sit inside or by the counter it's cheaper.
