Lisboa Pastelaria

The concept is simple: inspired by the seven-hilled city – the owners knew that Dublin deserved a taste of the hidden gems found in Portugal’s capital, so they decided to make it happen. Customers can stop by the new spot tomorrow on their first day of trade, Tuesday 29^th of November from 12pm onwards, where they will receive a free pastel de nata, one of five hundred that the pastelaria is giving away all day, in celebration of the new opening. The world-famous Lisbon traditional pastéis de natas consist of a crispy puff pastry enclosing a gooey vanilla custardy centre. They will be baked on-site in the new Dublin deli every day, using the best traditional recipe.

Lisboa, situated on 7 Andrew Street Dublin 2, will be providing an offering of the best in Portuguese street food. Other flavours of the pastéis de natas include chocolate, raspberry, blueberry. Speciality coffee will have vegan options available too.

A foodie fan favourite is set to be the ‘Francesinha’, hailing originally from Porto, dubbed “the hangover cure of the century” the meat-feast layers ham, sausage, chorizo and steak, covered entirely with melted cheese and topped with a secret tomato and beer sauce. In Lisboa on Andrew Street, you’ll also find the Bifana, a Portuguese staple: a sourdough bread hosting thin layers of pork marinated and simmered in a peppery tomato sauce. And of course, the lunch time favourite, Frango Piri Piri chicken roll with tomato and lettuce and a spicy mayo finish. The pastelaria will also be serving up a range of delicious pastries like Queques (filled muffins in a range of flavours), Bolas de Berlim (large donuts filled with custard, raspberry jam and whipped cream), Biscoitos (giant cookies) and gateaux slices. These alongside sausage rolls (vegan options available), savoury pastries and croissants.
