Aussie café with gorgeous stone and wood interior. Nice wine and coffee selection, quite good Aussie breakfast menu all day and Portuguese dinner
Sort of a global-hip, minimalist style coffee shop. But a quiet, beautiful, and pleasant one.
Mid-size boutique with well-selected casual Portuguese designers for women & men.
It really does feel like a neighborhood bar regardless of how far you came. Eclectic crowd of locals and less conspicuous tourists in a small, lovely, secluded praça. Best pre- and post-dinner drinks.
Comfortable, stylish men's knits, jackets, and shirting, often made from interesting locally-produced textiles or yarns. Based in Porto, the design team is right in the store.
Tiny backyard space worth checking on (it's often forgotten). John Lee Hooker drink is excellent. Gets crowded at top times.
Superb underground sake bar with a full food menu. Doesn't get too crowded due to well-spaced tables, though the wait will be horrendous on weekends.
All your marmite and cadburys needs met. Plus excellent meat pies and pasties, thousands of miles from home.
Expensive but meticulously-made denim, flannels, and sweats. Offer jeans repair services. If in doubt, the Stevenson clothing is better than you think.
Tiny European-style espresso bar with room to take your drink outside. Few baristas, so a high average quality. Aims for more Italian style, richer espresso rather than third-wave brighter shots.
Amazing bar, but too famous for its own good. If it's a weekend, go to Mace, Amor y Amargo, or Pouring Ribbons and save this for a weekday. It deserves little wait and full enjoyment.
Overpriced but you won't care. Lots of flair and unusual ingredients, amazing atmosphere. Overhyped but manages to justify itself.
Fantastic bar, though pricey and tough to get in weekend nights. Exotic ingredients, unlike almost any others in NYC or London. Well worth a visit for cocktail enthusiasts.
Coffee bar in the day, sake bar at night. Tiny spot with great food throughout. Follow their call on your sake bottle and pick your preferred glassware then have a great night of conversation.
Good drinks menu, though more limited than most high quality cocktail bars. Tilts towards Japanese ingredients (yuzu, sochu, calpico). Amazing wings and okonami-yaki.
