Opened since 1993, it’s a mandatory stop of Lisbon fado’s circuit, for consecrated artists as potential stars or simply for anyone that feels the need to sing a fado accompanied by the sound of Portuguese guitar.
Recovered from an old tavern, framed by dozens of paintings, posters, clippings and tables and benches that are not enough for everyone that wants to hear a fado. If you want to hear some Fado Vadio (Fado that is sang by non professionals), show up on Mondays and Wednesdays.

Fado vadio in a very typical and unpretentious vibe. It´s more of a snack house that happens to have fado at Saturdays and Sundays afternoon .

The Restaurante is in the heart of Alfama and just a “stone’s throw away” of the renowned Sé de Lisboa (Lisbon Cathedral). Portuguese traditional cooking, the sound of a Portuguese Guitar and the greatest portuguese Fado voices.

Modest family atmosphere and the Fado is of the “vadio” variety, which could be loosely translated as “amateur”, meaning anybody may get up and perform.
The space is small but overall it’s one of the most original Fado experiences in Lisbon. Make sure you book your table, since there are only about 6 of them!

Parreirinha de Alfama is one of the oldest and most famous fado houses and is located in one of the most typical districts of Lisbon (Alfama). Parreirinha is known to maintain the best culinary and fadista tradition in Lisbon.
