Salute, Lisbon!
Lisbon city guide and media •
280 places and ideas for things to do
The “Salute” guide to Lisbon will help you explore the city’s unique local aesthetic and its spots — restaurants, cafes, bars, clubs, creative spaces, museums, theaters, and shops.
This is not a “best of” ranking, nor do we aim for full coverage, but here you will find recommendations from locals and expats working in urban journalism, the creative industry, and the nightlife scene. Our selection is guided by the ideology of our project: more small businesses and independent projects, less of the big chains and commercial giants.
