Fábrica Coffee Roasters

Bairro Alto, Chiado & Cais do Sodré


The second location of Lisbon's best third-wave coffee house isn't as cosy as the original Baixa haunt, but this Moldavian-owned caffeine staple is a welcome addition on gourmet-centric Rua das Flores. Proprietarily-roasted single-origin arabica beans from Brazil, Ethiopia and Colombia are the rule and the espresso is exquisite.
