You must spend some time in the Bairro Alto area at nighttime. Whether it be for eating, drinking, people watching, or listening to fado, Bairro Alto will certainly entertain you until the wee hours of the night. Commonly, people will still be drinking here until 4 or 5, when the bars shut down.
It is traditional to order a drink in a bar and then take it out onto the streets where everyone conjugates. You might find it a little strange at first, but that it what makes this area so unique.
There are bars for every type of musical preference...you can find some with salsa music and dancing, others with DJs spinning, etc.
I have so many pretty interesting, artistic photos of Bairro Alto at night. It's the perfect place to take a variety of night/street life shots.
If you only have one night to experience the nightlife in Lisbon, make sure and spend it here!
casual.. heck you can get away with wearing the craziest of things here. Leave a Comment Theme: Eating and DrinkingDirections: Bairro Alto neighborhood just north of Baixa-Chiado metro from Restauradores, take the Elevador da Gloria (or walk up hill)

What can i tell you about this place … it is just original, amazing, and different...
Well, when my Spanish friends invited me to go there, I didn’t know what I would find there.
In this place you can find all kind of people and from different nationalities. It is located in Alfama district not far from the Castle.
There is placed the restaurant Restô do Chapitô with a nice bar. It has an astounding view over the town of Lisbon and it offers international meals and a great atmosphere. Usually there are there spectacles of dancing, singing and others.
You will find there the NetJAZZcafe, where you can access to Internet, enjoy Jazz spectacles, cinema, classic music and others things.
When I was there we took the famous Ginginha, a kind of cherry’s liqueur. Very nice :-) Leave a Comment

On my way back from Belem to Lisbon I decided to take a break near the impressive Ponte 25 de Abril. Here I discovered the Doca de Santo Amaro; which is a strip full of all sorts of pubs and restaurants.
Unfortunately, all places are a bit pricey, but the location is just unbeatable as it offers splendid views of the Ponte 25 de Abril and the Cristo Rei Statue on the southern bank of the Tejo.
I headed to the "Celtas & Iberos" an Irish pub and restaurant with local and Irish specialties. Like all places here it has a large wooden outdoor seating area.
I had the "Bife a Portuguesa", a beefsteak fried in olive oil, garlic and laurel with round french fries, smoked ham and fried egg. I washed it down with a few Pints of beer. Their website gives you a very good idea of the location and its views.
Directions:
The Celtas & Iberos Irish Pub is located at the Doca de Santo Amaro Marina, which is situated just unter the Ponte 25 de Abril. Take tram #15 and get off near the bridge. Another option is to take a suburban train from Cais Sodre to Alcantara Mar. The Doca de Santo Amaro is well signposted from there. Leave a Comment

The Docas (docks) are located in Alcântara, underneath the 25 de Abril bridge.
There are many restaurants and bars literally on the docks of the Rio Tejo. There are tables outside to dine and drink at, or you can join the chaos inside the crazy clubs.
Despite being one of the loveliest parts of town with an incredible view, I don't like the Docas so much because it tends to draw in more foreigners than locals. While seated at a table outside, I observed all the passerbyers and maybe 80% of them appeared as tourists.....and maybe a quarter of the women that I saw had fake breasts.
There's just this aura of money and superficiality that I sense from the Docas.
Dress here is definitely more upscale than in Bairro Alto (another reason why I don't like going here). People here tend to dress to impress, whereas I wear a burlap sack. Leave a Comment

Bairro Alto is an old quarter in Lisbon.
It is one of the most crowded places at night, but it cannot be considered to be a mainstream spot, even though you'll find some places.
It is mainly an alternative spot, with lots of different kinds of bars, restaurants, etc..
You can find Fado clubs (Casas de Fado) and Retro-Punk clubs side-by-side, late handicraft shops facing hip-hop bars or street-wear shops.
Must see...
Executive Armani Suit, Leather sado-maso outfit, Flower-power dress, just your underwear,or anything else you can think of Leave a Comment Theme: NightclubAddress: It's a quarter, just ask aroundDirections: Largo do Rato to the North, Largo do Carmo to the East, Cais do Sodré to the South and Santos to the West

This place is really great if you want to discover Lisbon's nightlife. It has bars, nightclubs, cyber cafes, restaurants all open until dawn. It has a very laid back atmosphere and prices are very reasonable compared to other parts of town like docas.
This is not only a nightlife spot you can also come here during the day with your family. you'll also find a mall, concert halls, hotels and expositions (FIL) that vary every week, (http://www.fil.pt/SAPPortal).

Another place to go is to Rua da Bica. It's a very cool street on a cool quarter. It's a very steep street, to go up people usually take this elevator that looks like a tram. I think it's closed by 12am, but the nice bars are just on top of the street and you can more simply get there from chiado area (no tough climbing). The Bicanense cafý, to your left when facing down the street, is the one i personally prefer. Dj music a small bar, but you can always take your drinks outside, and a dancing room.
I don't think you'll ever see in my nightlife tips something other that: whatever! I don't like the kind of place where i have to be like others want me to. I like to be relaxed and confortable. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Rua da Bica

Lisbon has many spots!
You can start your nightlife in Bairro Alto in a bar or 'tasca'. Then, if you would like to go to a club or a disco you can go to Lux.
You have to pay 12€ to entry.
Also near the Tagus river there is Musicais, located in Jardim do Tabaco, it also has live music untill 2am, then the place becomes a disco. Open until 5am (i guess)
In Santos there are the famous "Capelinhas", a distric with a lots of bars and pubs, check out this ones:
Estado Líquido (house and chill out music)
Fluid (house)
Refúgio das Freiras with the best toasts in your life!
Merendeira a place where u can eat, open until 6am, where people after discos go to eat a soup (Caldo Verde) and a typical portuguese bread, DELICIOUS!!!!
Dress code: Dress fashionable, in some places they dont let u wear sneakers.... Leave a Comment

It's one of the oldest neighborhoods in Lisboa. Plenty of restaurants and bars in its narrow and dark streets. There are options to all the preferences.
Avoid to go to Bairro Alto alone as it can be *really* dangerous at night.

This photo shows Praca do Comercio at night. Lisbon felt very safe to me despite what I had read in some guidebooks. Just to be sure, it's always good to avoid walking alone at night, but don't let the lack of sunshine keep you indoors. The streets and monuments are well lighted in the touristy parts of town.
