6.2.32 Ground Burger (Santa Apolónia)

Avenida Infante Dom Henrique 9

Location HERE.

Open daily from 1200 hours until midnight.

The newest outlet for Ground Burger, opened in October 2024, is across the main drag outside Santa Apolónia station, among a line of refurbished warehouses on the Tejo waterfront.


Food menu offerings are very similar to the São Sebastião site. But the tap list has 20 choices - twice as many. And the style used to display them to punters gives away the link between this chain and BREW. Chiado, which isn’t such a bad thing, given the latter is a good place to stop off for a beer.

For those worried about having to cross that main road, DON’T. There is a subway giving access to the Metro, and you can use that. Escalators at the station side, but unfortunately, only steps at the warehouses side.

As with the S. Sebastião site, it’s not bargain basement cheap, but with the same very-good-to-excellent service, it’s good value for money. More seating at this outlet, with one caution: the toilets are upstairs. Which means steps.

Not as busy as at S. Sebastião, but as this outlet has only been open for a few months, expect that to change. Likely to be busier during the summer months, given its waterfront location, the views, and short walk closeness to the cruise liner terminal.

Metro and heavy rail services at Santa Apolónia; Buses 13B, 706, 712, 728, 734, 735, 759, 781, 782 and 794.
