    There are bad things and good things about every bar, but I'm struggling really hard to come up with anything I dislike about Café Klandestino! It was an almost perfect experience. The atmosphere and aesthetic is killer. Love the colour, boho-street style, the decor, the lighting. Top notch. There's a cool upstairs area if you wanna be a little more private but I recommend staying on the ground floor. You get the whole experience. Both the bartenders are rad and welcoming af, and you can tell they enjoy their jobs. Big kudos to Flavia & Rafael. And who wouldn't in a place that has such a kickass signature menu. The idea of mashing up two disparate cocktails to create a new monster is dope and super creative. As a fan of so many of the ones listed, I was so curious to see how the bar modified them. Brilliant move. They were all amazing. Didn't have one I didn't like. I only wish my liver could have handled getting to try all of them in one night. Two of the best, in our opinions, were Da Killer and Fashion as Fu**. Genuinely fun experience to pick a drink from the menu, mostly because I totally trust these folks to know what they're doing. And they did not break that trust. They could up their bespoke game a little bit and this place would truly be perfection. I cannot wait to be back in Lisboa again, just to return to this bar.

    Amazing cocktails and just as good of a vibe. The owner is super nice and every cocktail make is based on on a different country’s recipes and flavors. Stop by, it’s better tasting and more affordable than all of the other cocktail bars we visited while in Lisbon. Follow me on Instagram at @dankeatsblog for more local restaurant recommendations! I have a full saved highlight of Lisbon and Porto.

    The cocktails are crazy good, but most importantly they are interesting. The way they built the menu, everything makes sense and the concept is just super cool. They explain everything and give very good advice. Just go, for real you won’t regret it. Plus the atmosphere of the bar is very atypical and nice. I repeat, just go and have the best cocktail in your life

    A cool little hidden gem that plays excellent music! They desperately need air conditioning though, it’s like a sauna in there. Cocktails were yummy, best espresso martini I’ve ever had… got one called “corpse reviver” it was okay but a bit small. The service was extremely fast, got the drinks almost instantly & the staff were super friendly & attentive. I got the potatoes with goat cheese, pickles & sausage crumble but without the sausage crumble… it was not so good, I was expecting actual potatoes not crisps/chips… with some cocktail sauce, a little bit of crumbled goat cheese & that mixed pickle (like one slice of gherkin, mostly carrot). I would order a different snack next time. But there will be a next time:) I’m curious to try the cocktails based on foods, it’s a creative concept you’ll see on the first couple of pages on the menu.

    Four cocktail bars during my visit, and this took second place when only considering the drink uniqueness, variety, and price. The service was great, and I felt very welcomed, which always boosts the experience. The drink themes and quality for the price were excellent, and the atmosphere definitely has the dive bar feel, but with great cocktails. Overall, it is a great place to try unique cocktails made by great staff.

    Sehr angenehmes Ambiente. Die Drinks sind auf der Karte gut beschrieben und sind die Preise sind angemessen. Die Mocktails sind, trotz gleichem Aufwand, sehr günstig. Das Personal machte auf Nachfrage auch Drinks ausserhalb der Karte was sehr begrüsst wurde. Ich würde auf der Karte noch explizit erwähnen, dass diese nicht abschliessend ist.

    Delicious and creative cocktails!!! Reasonably priced too! We're visiting, but if I lived in Lisbon I would come here again and again.

    By far the coolest bar in Lisbon with the best bartenders, music, and creative cocktails inspired by traditional Portuguese dishes. Literally every drink we tried from the menu became our new favorite. If you’re looking for a unique local experience in Lisbon this bar is an absolute must!

    A great little place with a delicious cocktail menu paired with chilled vibes, suuuuper friendly staff and awesome music. Like most of the bars around this area it’s not too busy as it’s a little out of the way of the city centre - yet easy enough to get to and from. Highly recommended!

    Such a cool concept to the bar, so different from any other cocktail bar I've been to. They've really got something special here, bar staff were great too. Thanks for a great evening! I wish I could have tried all of the cocktails

    Wide range of really interesting and original cocktails, savoury to sweet. They do fan favourites as well, but their own collection is so strong, start there. Nice chilled Atmos on a Sunday evening. Although it looks like roast beef in the drink on the left it is actually an ice cube 🤣

    Such a cool spot! I love that the cocktail menu is based on a Portuguese dinner menu— you won’t find these drinks anywhere else!!

    Such a great place to go out for drinks and have a good time. Drinks are really delicious and innovative - the bar tenders are awesome. Service is also great. It might get very busy depending on the night - most locals.

    Really amazing cocktails!! They have created a unique menu and we tried 4 different cocktails that were all unreal! The area and seating isn't fancy at all but would highly recommend regardless. Staff were very welcoming, knowledgeable and we received great service.

    The cocktails here are AMAZING. The menu is super interesting and there is a huge selection depending on your taste. All of our cocktails came with a fun garnish too. Definitely go here if you're looking for some incredible drinks before or after dinner.

    We are biiiiig cocktail bar people and this was far and away the best cocktail bar experience we had in Lisbon. The cocktails were tasty, incredibly inventive, and there was plenty of variety in the menu. Nachos weren’t bad either for a late night snack. We had 6 different cocktails on their around the world menu served on a globe and they all were spectacular. Staff was great and gave us a bartender handshake shot on our way out the door and a recommendation to another great Lisbon cocktail spot. Definitely take the time to stop by this place!

    Brilliant cocktail bar with super knowledgeable staff. We were a bit confused by the menu concept at first (being neither young nor trendy) but the barperson explained it really well and helped us loads. Cocktails were amazing. Proper cocktails.

    Great cocktail bar with fancy drinks based on Fight Club theme. Menu rotates. Small and quaint.

  • 5/5 Mario B. 7 months ago on Google
    Unreal cocktails. Hands down the best drinks I've ever had. The best part is how sketchy the entrance is. You wouldn't imagine that a bar of this quality is behind the door that you're meant to walk into. 100% a genuine gem.

  • 5/5 hoanginout 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely incredible concept, but even greater space & staff. Went with a couple friends and when we went it was super packed but got immediately welcomed by every staff even bartender when we waited for a table. Shout out to Kathleen for providing such an great experience! Every drink on the menu was delicious. I even was bold enough to try this meat one and was impressed by how well all the flavors worked together! Looking forward to visiting again next time I'm in Lisboa!

    For someone who has lived in New York, London, and other major cities around the world this little libations hideaway was an incredible surprise. The entrance was deceiving but once you enter into this cocktail oasis the bartenders are eager to provide you with whatever your tastebuds desire. The cocktail menu is designed like a food menu which was an interesting twist but a bit confusing as to what I was going to order but I just informed the bartender of what I enjoy in a cocktail and they made me the most delectable beverage I have ever had! Whiskey genius!!!!

    What am amazing cocktail bar! The drinks are unusual but delicious, service is great with friendly staff and the atmosphere is cool and easy-going.

  • 5/5 Thales Eduardo Oliveira D. 1 year ago on Google
    Literally every time I go to Lisbon I have to stop by and see the crazy cocktails my friend Pedro is creating. Best thing is that’s place is always open so you don’t have an excuse not to be there! This new menu is Lit!

  • 5/5 Ayçin 1 year ago on Google
    It is a very nice bar in Lisbon. They have a menu mainly consisting of classic cocktails from all around the world. They also have little twists on the cocktails. The cocktails we tried were good. The atmosphere is lovely and the staff is friendly. .

    Incredible staff, perfect drinks and great recommendations. Highly recommend the Almond Pie (drink), amazing idea for a cocktail bar menu. Every drink became our favourite!

  • 5/5 Dimi 1 year ago on Google
    Cozy and intimate place with friendly and knowledgeable stuff. Their cocktail card is in the form of a restaurant menu, with cocktails resembling different dishes.

    Worst 2 drinks i have ever put in my mouth and i have been around a lot.. our drinks were served with them taking the last order at the same time.. turns out we had 20min to skull our disgusting drinks for 24€. In the end we were told off by two white dreadlock wearing bartenders that 20min are enough to drink our cocktails and that they see no problem in letting us order our drinks without letting us know when the bar closes.. No words. Pretentious place. Disgusting drinks. Awful service throughout. Edit: answer to owners response Firstly thanks for your response. Secondly we know what we ordered, we expected savoury drinks, still didn’t expect them to be disgusting. Furthermore the checking in didn’t happen, straight up a lie. Regarding the timing of your closure: you let us order and pay and then informed us about the closing times. I find it disturbing that you expect your customers to know your operating hours, why is you staff not able to communicate clearly with people when they walk in late. For future maybe care less about the extra money and be more customer focused. Lastly my description of your employees is fair and accurate. Walking around with this kind of hair as a white person shows a lack of racial awareness as your problematic answer does too. Kind regards. I hope your white fragility now considers this as constructive feedback.
