Whatever the occasion, beer is often the drink of choice to celebrate, whether with friends or even family. With that in mind, we’ve created a list of the best breweries in Lisbon, where we’ve highlighted our favorite places in the city to drink a cold “loira”.
In many of these places you’ll also be able to find craft beers, as well as snacks on the terraces, for example while you watch the next game of your favorite soccer club.
Let’s go? We’ll buy the first round!
Quimera Brewpub
To say that Lisbon has a bar inside a 1740 tunnel is enough to make you want to go there. But that’s not all! Quimera Pub combines the best of both worlds: good beer and good music in an inspiring atmosphere.
Quimera Pub, which has the concept of a brewpub, has an enviable menu of craft beers and sandwiches inspired by New York’s famous delis .
Address: Rua Prior do Crato 6 (Alcântara)
Crafty Corner
An unmissable destination for those who love craft beers, at Crafty Corner you’ll also find a very cozy historical atmosphere, where we highlight all the industrial and retro-style décor, as well as the medieval architectural elements.
It’s located in one of Lisbon’s most typical neighborhoods, Alfama, which makes the experience even more immersive and interesting.
Address: Rua de São João da Praça 93-95 (Alfama)
Browers Beato
The country’s newest brewery is in Beato and has one of the largest counters we’ve ever seen, where you can enjoy a snack and, of course, order the various beers available.
Browers Beato is the brand’s first brewery in the country, and brings to Lisbon a counter measuring around 30 meters, where there will be plenty of room for the various snacks on the menu and for the wide variety of the house’s 15 craft beers and another seven from national and international brands.
Address: Rua da Manutenção 71, Edifício E (Beato)
Dois Corvos
Dois Corvos describes itself as a “family-run, independent brewery” and its craft beers are distributed in Portugal and abroad, accumulating more than three dozen awards and distinctions.
Dois Corvos’ tap room was the first of its kind in Portugal and it is here that the beer continues to be served fresh and creamy, straight from the source.
Address: Rua Capitão Leitão 94 (Marvila); Rua dos Anjos 16B (Intendente)
The Purist
Located in Chiado, very close to Largo de Camões, O Purista is first and foremost a barbershop, but why not take the opportunity to drink a cold Lagunitas IPA while you get your style done?
At Purista you’ll find more than just a haircut or a shave. It’s one of the trendiest and hippest spots in modern Lisbon, where you can enjoy a drink after work, read the latest news of the day or even play a game of snooker.

LX Brewery
LX Brewery was the first brewery to open in Lisbon (previously under the name Sant’Ana), near Estefânia.
It’s not just a brewery, it’s also a store where you can buy ingredients and materials for craft beer production, as well as a bar.
The bar is open every Friday and Saturday from 6pm to 2am. You can go there to eat and drink, try one or more of the house beers and give your opinion.
The idea is for the bar to serve as a stage for new experiences. It has five fixed flavors, which are always available, and custom flavors made to order for some customers.
Address: Rua do Funchal 5 (Estefânia)
Musa de Marvila
The history of the Musa brand began shortly before 2014, but between trips and startups it wasn ‘t until 2016 that the first craft beer appeared, the great Mick Lager. Ring a bell? That’s right, Musa goes hand in hand with music.
