A rare non-Delta specialty counter off Avenida da Liberdade, pouring single origins across espresso, V60 and flat white, with an owner who'll walk you through the differences.

A Lisbon counter that skips Delta for single origins across every brew method.

Single originsPour-over

What we love

  • Single origins served across espresso, V60 and flat white, not just one method
  • A deliberate break from Delta, the ubiquitous Portuguese chain coffee found in most Lisbon cafes
  • Owner walks customers through flavour differences between coffees, down to how to stir an espresso before the first sip
  • Distinct tasting notes called out by name rather than generic praise

Simpli Coffee Avenida★★ Specialty

A pour-over one reviewer called some of the best they've ever had, poured from beans this Avenida da Liberdade shop roasts itself.

94°★★ Specialty

A filter menu that names its single-origin lots and runs several hand-brew methods, with staff willing to dial in acidity to how you actually like it.

Fábrica Specialty Coffee & Roastery★★ Specialty

Fábrica Coffee Roasters' Avenida da Liberdade counter pulls a light roast with real tasting notes, lime and caramel among them. The baristas talk flavour instead of platitudes.
