The Coffee★★ Specialty

Climb one of Alfama's steepest alleyways to find this one, a coffee shop built for people who care about what's in the cup, not just the view.

The Folks★★ Specialty
R. das Pedras Negras 7

The hand-brew filter here gets singled out as beautifully balanced, and the espresso runs on flavour-forward single origins, a coffee programme with more craft behind it than the brunch queue outside would suggest.

The Folks★★ Specialty
R. São Tomé 27

One of six Lisbon outposts of The Folks, ranked among the World's 100 Best Coffee Shops for a second year running, pouring single origins from Colombia, Ethiopia, Costa Rica and Brazil with tasting notes on every cup.
