20 Pubs and other stuff Pubs BRITISH BAR Address: Rua Bernadino Costa, 52, Downtown Contact: ( ) This Anglo-Portuguese bar close to Cais do Sodré metro station (green line) seems stuck in the 1930s, and literally goes back in time with a famous anticlockwise clock. It has Guinness on tap to satisfy homesick Brits. B'ARTIS Address: Rua do Diario de Noticias, 95-97, Bairro Alto. A cozy bar popular with creative types who enjoy jazz. Wooden furnishings and classic old movie posters give it a decades-old ambience, and its range of snacks and wines is good. 20

21 ESTADO LIQUIDO Adress: Largo de Santos, 5A Contact: (+351) Website: This is one of the coolest discobars in Lisbon, from the interior design to the overall relaxed vibe. Upstairs is a hip sushi bar open until late. PORTAS LARGAS Address: Rua da Atalaia, 105, Bairro Alto Contact: (+351) and people-watching. Wide doors ("portas largas") open into a popular old-fashioned bar with a marble counter, an old cash register, and blue and white tiles creating a rather rustic look. It is traditionally known as a stopover for gays heading to Fragil across the street, but attracts a mixture of casual drinkers and tourists. Despite the spacious interior, many choose to stand by the doorway chatting 21

22 Places to see Praça do Comércio - Commerce Square With the Tagus river on its back, the square once known for Terreiro do Paço da Ribeira, presents itself to the visitor in a square shape, with one of the sides opened.
