Cervejaria Ramiro, Lisbon – a must visit

IMG_4300

Earlier in the year, when I was in Lisbon with the fabulous Young Winemakers of Portugal (who, incidentally, have just been written up on the BBC news site), I was taken to the Cervejaria Ramiro (Av. Almirante Reis, nº1 – H1150-007 Lisboa, Phone: +351 21 885 10 24). This is a remarkable place, a must visit, and I can’t believe I didn’t write it up at the time.

It was founded back in 1956 as a beer bar. It has developed a bit since then, and now it’s a beer bar that serves the most amazing seafood and also steak sandwiches, at very good prices. It’s not smart or fancy, but the food is amazing and the atmosphere great. You can’t book: you just join the end of the queue and wait for your table. It is worth the wait.

We ate well, including some fabulous goose barnacles (percebes) and crab. And to drink: you can have wine, but you should really have beer. After all, this place is a cervejaria.
