GKJuly 10, 2018It really is the best fado place in the city. It’s cheap but good. Arrive 30 min earlier! Don’t let the football look make you misjudge the place.

ElifMay 15, 2016Cute little fado place, could be the perfect choice for Bairo Alto (try Alfama for more traditional). Flaming salsiccia is a must at the end of the night 🔥
Álvaro YusteApril 25, 2013Henrique is a pretty old man that gives you a souvenir. Don't be afraid about it. Nice place and Fados put the creeps. Be respectful with the show and don't talk if you don't understand the lyrics.
Yana TMarch 9, 2015Small place with great vibe and amazing fado. On crowded evening be prepared that you have to order snack to get the table, otherwise they'll ask you to stay at bar
Nuri JeonMay 5, 2014Awesome place for Fado. Just watch out French. They will take your seat with all the immature excuse if you are setting on a better place to watch Fado than they are
Damian BayonaJuly 17, 2019Small, intimate setting with authentic Fado musicians. €10 minimum per person. Doors remain closed during performances which last about 15 mins.
Anna KaminovaJanuary 17, 2017Most amazing singers were the visitors. Would come back but next time without food.
Tonatiuh RomeroJuly 17, 2014On Mondays and Wednesdays, they don’t charge admission or have a minimum drink requirement. You can just have a drink, some dinner or a snack
Mindy YapOctober 19, 2018Waitress was extremely rude. Food was pretty disgusting (comparatively to the very decent fare you generally get in Lisbon). Come here PURELY for the fado.
JDecember 24, 2015The only place I go for fado, friendly vibe, good singers (amateur + professional) and not the crazy prices found in most other places. Gets crowded so arrive some time before the show starts at 9.
Javier RodriguezSeptember 12, 2017Small bar with live Fado every Monday night. 15 minute sets starting around 8:30 -9:00 pm
IstanbulliSeptember 6, 2012Cute bar, on fado nites(mondays and wednesdays) you don't have to eat but can only have drink..das bier für eur 1,5 :)- Thijs WelmanNovember 28, 2013The live Fado is wonderful. Nice setting, but be sure to be on time: it's a small place.
Lunar HAugust 26, 2014You need to reserve a table in advance. Or stand at the cramped bar and drink by yourself.
Adelya HershkovichApril 7, 2019Haven’t had such a bad experience in along time Nothing to do with real fado Tiny place packed, smelly WC drinks awful snacks even worse Don’t let queue outside to fool you Avoid by all costs!- Tasos KtsApril 9, 2018The food was not good. Was expensive comparing to what you get. The staff is not polite. Only fado music worth in that place.
- BivitriMarch 21, 2017Authentic small place with nice fado shows of 15 min with 15min breaks. Delicious sangria! Book in advance or wait outside ~30 min to get in and luckily find a table
SOctober 1, 2015Good for Fado. Don't come hungry though, the food is just average and expensive. Annoyed waitresses- Christian W.June 20, 2013One of the cutest pubs I've ever been. Make sure to go there on Mondays and Wednesdays to listen to some original portuguese music (fado) for free. cheap beer and good food! try the codfish and ham!
Anna NguyenJune 17, 2018Terrible service, the staff is horrible rude and unacceptable, we do not recommend :(
Pavlo PrykhodkoNovember 7, 2018poor choise, they don't even serve you a water, poor stupid bastrards
Pieter PeachMay 24, 2012Figure out what time you need to go to hear some Fado. We were there 11:30pm on a Wednesday.
Wafa SAugust 13, 2012Wonderful bar with great service. Fado is for you just by sitting and ordering whatever you want, among lisboete fans of it. A must do far from the traditional expensive casas de fado.- Anna NguyenJune 17, 2018Terrible service, the staff is horrible rude and unacceptable, we do not recommend :(
HarryApril 7, 2015Packed and reservation needed on free Fado Monday's. Clearly authentic Fado does not exist, so this seems to be the best you can get. Worth for a few hours though.
Samuel HermosoAugust 17, 2014Fados sin gastar mucho. Recomendable reservar mesa. Las de la ventana, para no estar cuellirroto. Paciencia, que al llegar no te hacen ni caso. Suele haber un viejete muy majo aplaudiendo como loco.
Fernando FonsecaFebruary 13, 2017Exelente ambiente , bosn petiscos , bom vinho e obviamente uma excelente fado .. O melhor fado de Lisboa- Wafa SAugust 13, 2012Bar super sympa, service chaleureux avec le sourire. Fado juste avec conso au bar avec clientèle lisboete. à faire absolument!
Caroline GrimmJuly 10, 2015Melhor lugar para o verdadeiro fado vadio. Chegue cedo, ou terá que esperar um intervalo para poder entrar.
Caroline RibeiroJanuary 21, 2015Fado vadio cativante. Vá com disposição: pequeno, fica lotado, principalmente de turistas (isso reflete nos preços). Mesmo assim, vale a visita.
Bob FerrazJanuary 17, 2015Ótimo lugar para ouvir um bom fado, beber e fazer amizade com pessoas de todo o mundo.
FausTino Habas Sin JamónMay 4, 2014Sitio con mucho encanto y buen fado, fuera de los sitios típicos de guiris y frecuentado por portugueses, lo que es buena señal.
Elena SonciniFebruary 9, 2018De bons musiciens et chanteurs/chanteuses de Fado, ambiance chaleureuse !
Fernanda GoriSeptember 23, 2013Uma delicia e o fado é sempre ótimo... A unica pena é que ainda é permitido fumar aqui dentro...
