    My favorite coffee shop in Lisbon! The owner is super friendly and cares a lot about his customers. You can pay with card or in cash, there are many vegan and vegetarian options. The coffee is amazing and the food is delicious as well. I only can recommend this place!

    I'm an exchange student and was looking for a small coffee shop for studying and found the perfect place! Coffee and food are great and the service is amazing! A family-owned Café, run by super friendly people who really take take of the customers. Definitely one of the best coffee shops in Lisbon! :)

    The thing that is sweeter then the desert in the place is the people in it, service super friendly Coffee : impeccable Desert: best cheese cake, even better than cedric grolet 🤣 Toast: if you are not a fan of avocado, don’t bother We ordered a latte and croissant for my friend, and cappuccino and cheese cake and tomato avocado toast All total was 21€

    ## How About Coffee? Caffeinating Your Lisbon Experience with Delicious Delights In the heart of Lisbon, where the aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans mingles with the city's vibrant energy, lies How About Coffee? - a café that lives up to its name and beyond. More than just a caffeine pit stop, this charming spot offers a delightful culinary experience that tantalizes the taste buds and warms the soul. **A Feast for the Senses:** * **Salmon Sensation:** My personal highlight was the **exquisite salmon** bathed in a **luscious hollandaise sauce**. The fish was cooked to perfection, flaky and moist, its delicate flavor beautifully complemented by the creamy richness of the sauce. A true culinary masterpiece! * **Acai Allure:** For the health-conscious adventurer, the **acai granola** promises a burst of flavor and energy. The vibrant blend of acai, topped with fresh fruit and crunchy granola, offered a refreshing and satisfying start to the day. * **Avomelicious Awakening:** The **"Avomelo"**, featuring creamy avocado, savory mushrooms, and perfectly fried eggs, was a symphony of textures and tastes. This dish is a must-try for avocado enthusiasts seeking a hearty and flavorful breakfast. **Beyond the Plate:** * **Charming Ambiance:** Stepping into How About Coffee? is like stepping into a warm hug. The cozy atmosphere, with its exposed brick walls and inviting décor, creates a space that feels both modern and comforting. * **Coffee Connoisseur's Paradise:** True to its name, the café boasts a **diverse selection of coffee**, expertly brewed to satisfy every palate. Whether you're a latte lover or an espresso aficionado, you're sure to find your perfect cup. * **Friendly Service:** The staff at How About Coffee? are the icing on the cake. They are attentive, welcoming, and knowledgeable, making you feel right at home from the moment you step in. **In Conclusion:** How About Coffee? is more than just a café; it's an experience. From the delectable dishes to the inviting atmosphere and friendly service, this hidden gem offers a taste of Lisbon that will linger in your memory long after you leave. So, when you're exploring the city and need a caffeine fix or a delicious bite, do yourself a favor and ask, "How About Coffee?" You won't be disappointed!

    Typical breakfast/brunch place that can be found in most European cities. The toasts look fantastic but takes quite a while to make. The coffee has some special taste that is unlike typical Portuguese coffee (it is probably less roasted and thus makes it have a greener taste). The Açai bowl is quite big, but the flavor seems store bought and made me feel like I was eating icecream for breakfast instead of something healthy.

    A wonderful coffee boutique. Coffee was great. Amazing food, made to order. Impeccable service. If you just picked up your rental car and left the airport, or need a pick me up before your flight out, this is where you stop at (8 min away). Must try!

    (Translated by Google) Space so pleasant that it is worth leaving. From the service to the food, from the friendliness to the nice glass at the end of the workday .. It doesn't even seem like we are on one of the busiest avenues in Lisbon (Original) Espaço tão agradável que dá pena ir embora. Do serviço à comida, da simpatia ao belo copo no final do dia de trabalho.. Nem parece que estamos numa das avenidas mais movimentadas de Lisboa

  • 5/5 Kateřina V. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place with amazing specialty coffee. They roast the beans themselves, so for a filtered coffee, I could choose from different beans, which I appreciated. To top it off, the avocado toast was so good!

    Great cozy breakfast spot with nice atmosphere and good tunes. The staff was very friendly and food was fresh.

  • 5/5 Eddie Z. 11 months ago on Google • 24 reviews
    Came here looking for a quick caffeine fix - ended up having one of the best toasts of my life!!! I stumbled across this little place on Google while looking for a coffee shop to get a pick-me-up. Ordered a cold brew which was fantastic! The couple besides us ordered a toast which looked phenomenal, so I couldn’t help but order one for myself. I had an avocado toast with salmon and a poached egg and it absolutely blew me away! The ingredients were so fresh yet so simple. Had I had the stomach for it, I would’ve ordered 3 more. If you are in the area, do not miss out on this place!!

  • 5/5 Nour Z. 1 year ago on Google • 24 reviews
    One of my favorite places in Lisbon. The coffee is the nicest I’ve tried in all of Lisbon. The tea is also very nice. Food is so fresh and everyone is very friendly. Honestly 10/10

  • 5/5 Feyza T. 11 months ago on Google • 18 reviews
    The best coffee we had in Portugal. We tried the flat white and cortada, delicisious coffee. Also their avocado toast with eggs and salmon and their pancakes are delicious.Very friendly staff, too. Definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good coffee and breakfast/lunch.

  • 5/5 Michaela C. 4 months ago on Google • 8 reviews
    We had really good flat white, high quality and tasty. The service was kind, attentive, and made us feel very pleasant. The staff prepared artsy plate for my 2 years old daughter, that was very cute. Highly recommended if you're looking for a real flat white and welcoming atmosphere.

  • 5/5 michele c. 1 month ago on Google • 6 reviews New
    It's a small enough place, but what matters is coffee! Only two types of beans for filter, but very tasty. Espresso is high quality! The outdoor seating area is a nice touch.

  • 5/5 Kyle R. 1 year ago on Google • 4 reviews
    How About Coffee is cozy, friendly and absolutely delicious. Since discovering HAC my family and I have been back almost every day. The food is fresh and perfect. Try the Fisheese and pancakes! The coffee is perfectly roasted and they are meticulous about the right brewing method to taste all the flavors of the coffee. Best coffee in Lisboa. On top of it all. The staff is friendly and kind. One of my favorite spots!!!

  • 5/5 Reile H. 1 month ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    Amazing coffee and delicious food. Staff is very friendly! I even got a coffee for free because I had to wait a little longer for my toast. Wonderful experience during my travels in Lisbon.

    We had great coffee served directly by the owners. We tried some freshly brewed coffee and the Chicken toast and they were delicious. We’ll definitely come back to try the sweets!

  • 4/5 Paulo A. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) City and objectively for local customers. Good service, good products, pleasant place despite the terrace being right next to the road. Just some carelessness in cleaning the space. Perhaps because of some fault of the clients who see empty tables and sit down, but it happens because the number of staff is small and they are unable to manage the space and compel accountability. (Original) Citadino e objectivamente para clientes locais. Bom serviço, bons produtos, local aprazível apesar de a esplanada estar mesmo junto a estrada. Apenas algum descuido na higienização do espaço. Talvez por alguma culpa dos clientes que vêem mesas desocupadas e sentam—se, mas acontece porque a quantidade do pessoal é pouca é não consegue gerir o espaço é obrigar à responsabilização.

  • 5/5 Anthony C. 1 year ago on Google
    The best latte of my life! Rented an Airbnb nearby and Google showed me this gem around the corner. Did not expect to find the best latte of my life here. Everything is done slowly, carefully, with love. The owner Tiago is so easy to talk to and gave us great tips like where to find the best bread in Lisbon (Monka). We will surely be coming back. Highly highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Nanda B. 1 year ago on Google
    The very best coffee and the real deal. In this place it’s about the coffee. The owner loves and lives his product. His wife creates with lots of love a beautiful sandwich that tastes delicious. It’s really as the saying goes: ca vaut un detour!

  • 5/5 Ankie 1 year ago on Google
    We visited this coffee boutique today. Great place, nice coffees and tasteful breakfast (we had pancakes and yoghurt), we love this place. Hard working people who want to give you a good time!

  • 5/5 Manuel Tiago P. 1 year ago on Google
    Hands down best specialty coffee shop in Lisbon, with all the ingredients you'd look for: lovely espresso and many choices of origins and methods for filter coffee, very kind and attentive staff, and a cozy space, frequently attended by a very diverse and interesting crowd. Definitely would recommend a visit!

  • 5/5 Andrey P. 1 year ago on Google
    Quality coffee. Very small and cozy place. Wonderful personnel. My "flat white with cinnamon roll" was just right to start the day.

  • 5/5 Helenka A. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful place, the coffee is amazing!! I’ve never tried such a good cappuccino with oat milk in my life. Will always return 😊

  • 5/5 Kyle M. 1 year ago on Google
    Was doing laundry across the street and saw this place. I already got coffee to break some bills but was hungry. Ordered some toasts which took a bit long. I wasn’t expecting this presentation or how good it was. The people inside were super nice and spoke good English. Highly recommend coming here for some food.

  • 5/5 Ailú h. 1 year ago on Google
    Best Coffee in town 😊 Totally recommend their Oat Latte and the healthy Brownies. You can sit inside or outside. The people who work here are really attentive and dedicated. 🙏

    Very nice coffee with the best staff you could wish for. However the location is pretty far from everything else, so couldn’t give them a full 5 star review. Would also be nice if you could add any syrup to your coffee, like vanilla and caramel.

  • 5/5 nordicgirl_ 10 months ago on Google
    Amazing little cafe! Best coffee I’ve ever had! And the breakfast (pancakes, avocado bread) was amazing too!! We‘ll definitely come back again! And very kind staff!!

  • 5/5 Tristan 7 months ago on Google

    Amazing coffee shop, with very reasonably priced food. The staff are extremely friendly and accommodating, spent half an hour giving us a list of recommendations to try for our holiday. Also gifted me a tasty cookie on my birthday! Highly recommend (the cold brew & overnight oats were my personal favourite)

  • 5/5 Siobhan M. 8 months ago on Google
    A great hidden secret of a coffee shop! We sadly found it at the end of our holiday otherwise we would have been every day! The staff are so helpful and friendly, the coffee is delicious and the food was great. The place had a lovely atmosphere that made you want to stay.

  • 5/5 Pavlo L. 8 months ago on Google
    Coffee shop How about coffee offers delicious specialty coffee and a lot of tasty pastries and desserts. There is also coffee in drip bags that are great to take on trips or while going outside. Minimalistic interior design and pleasant staff create a cozy atmosphere. The coffee shop has an inner courtyard, free wifi and moderate prices. Here you can simply take a break, work or have some meeting. If you like a cozy atmosphere and delicious coffee, then How about coffee is the place for you.

    From expresso to filter Chemex to aeropress, with coffee beans from all over the world. Batista is a super nice guy and knows his coffee well. Cakes are realy good and you have vegan options, too.

    Wonderful place! The coffee was great, food as well, definately had the best avocado dish ever (came back for it two days in a row:) The cook even agreed upon sharing some tips&tricks on his recipe! The staff is very friendly and caring. Felt more like a place to meet friends, than just stop for great brunch:) Greetings from Lithuania!
