6.2.23 Sputnik Craft Beer

Rua Andrade 41A

Location HERE

Allegedly the focal point for the local Russian community - the Cyrillic script, the name, they might be a giveaway. But, so what? It’s still a good place to have a scoop or three.

Just round the corner from Dois Corvos Intendente, and with one or two of their beers, but still plenty of other items, on the board. And one or two unexpected and enterprising offerings: this is the place where I encountered Cantillon Gueuze 2023, and not at a silly price, either (it was bloody excellent, too). Food is nibbly stuff, plus toasted sandwiches.


There is table football, where I’m told one of the regular bar staff will wipe the floor with all comers. Big bottled beer and can offering, too. One minus point - the air currents mean that when a few punters go out front for a smoke, it can drift into the bar.

And not like the whistle in Chattanooga Choo Choo.

One plus point, it’s close to Indian and Nepalese restaurants like the Bhetgat, and Lisbon Sekuwa Corner. Beer and curry enthusiasts will need no prompting to figure out a way to cover both bases here.

6.2 Craft Beer Bars

The craft beer revolution began to wash over Lisbon around a decade ago. Some outlets have, in the meantime, come and gone, but the scene is a good one for locals and visitors alike. You can get decent beer in The Great City - here are outlets I know about and have visited recently. Follow the links! Most outlets keep to their advertised opening hours. HOWEVER one or two may be unable to open on occasion - CHECK beforehand to avoid disappointment.
