You can't leave Lisbon without trying a pastel de nata (a Portuguese custard tart)! Manteigaria was our favorite bakery for pastéis de nata (plural).
A short walk from our hotel and possibly the best coffee you've ever had!
Cuisine Types: Seafood, Portuguese, and other International flavors A short walk from our hotel, Peixola reservations are available on their website.
Cuisine Types: classical Portuguese and French They have a great lunch deal! Lunch reservations aren't needed; however, dinner reservations are highly recommended.
Cuisine Types: Indian and Nepalese The Oven is pretty much reservation-only, and pick the earlier time - there are only two times. We made the mistake of picking the later time, and we had to wait a lot (still worth it). Also, they're on the Michelin 2026 Guide.
Recommended as a day trip from Lisbon. You can either take an Uber (40 min) or the train (55 min). It's recommended to get there early in the day, before the crowds, and to avoid Sintra on the weekends. https://visitsintra.travel/en/plus-info/why-sintra
If you're looking to extend your trip, Porto has been highly recommended! It's a coastal city; from Lisbon, it takes about 3 hours by train and 1 hour by plane.
