Now, I have to admit I've never been to Sol e Pesca before Midnight - that's just the Lisbon way! The "Pink Street"/"Rua Cor-de-Rosa", a pink-painted street in downtown becomes the center of Lisbon nightlife around the call of midnight. Named by the New York Times as one of their favorite streets in Europe, it's acceptable (and encouraged) to grab a cocktail or sangria somewhere and just live the night bar-hopping on this street as you make new friends. The quirky Sol e Pesca looks like a fishing tackle shop but it's the perfect spot for a late drink and some quick tapas as you enjoy the night.

This is one of those places you hope to discover off the beaten path.  A Tabacaria is a former "Store of Luck" - where you'd pick up your daily lottery ticket. Its last owners had been there for decades and when they retired, new owner Mikas happily kept all the beautiful, ornate woodwork but gave the space a new lease of life through cocktail experimentation and tasty tapas. We prefer it in the summer when all the french doors are open onto the street and you can thrive off the energy of the city with some of the best gin cocktails in the city.
