For years the neglected child of central Lisbon, Intendente is enjoying a lively rebirth. Known for its rough edges, shady economic activities and its multicultural ambience, it's now embracing grit in a positive way. The neighborhood includes one of the city's biggest estates of late 19th century Portuguese-style architecture. Gentrification is well underway, but it is balanced with a thriving activist and cooperative scene. This unique national movement was reborn after the depression because the country's youth didn't give in under tough circumstances.
A gritty, interested place to grab a bite or mount your own bike
Counterculture and chill
The best burger of the neighborhood comes from the hands of the luso-french Josephine. But I'm not even sure that's the best they serve, since the steak is so incredible too. And this is only lunch, but check out their breakfast and snack menus throughout the day. It's the the go to place for a quick meal and a cold one at the end of the day when the atmosphere becomes that of a cosy pub.
