Loved it! One of the highlights of our visit to Lisbon, we went there 3 times in 3 days. Awesome food and variety, awesome vibe. Knocked 1 star because finding a place to sit down is an epic endeavour, consequence of the success of this place.

Old market hall, renovated and filled with all kind of restaurants. It used to be a great place to walk around and have lunch or dinner. When we got back in September 17, it was totally packed. No free tables. Very loud, no relaxed atmosphere. We decided to leave and have lunch somewhere else.

Used to love visiting and bringing visitors to this place. However now it's turned into an overcrowded fight for overpriced food and seating all served with complete disinterest by overworked staff.

Time Out is exactly what we will be doing and moving on to support many of the excellent independent local eateries around this beautiful city.

A food market with many types of shops, food of various types, confectionery, beverages, wines, beers. The market is designed as a closed area with shops around and in the middle of tables around which you can sit and eat. Payment in-store and self-serve. The complex is pleasant and varied.

I wish i could spend here the whole day and try everything! We had dinner at one of the places with seafood (on the left side from the entrance) - and it was very delicious: octopus with rice, grilled fish, shrimps with garlic, oysters.

Amazing! An old market that has been converted into an upscale food court. This is a collection of high end restaurants. Several top chefs from the area have come here to offer very tasty food. Many many choices of cuisine. Good wine and beer choices. There are tables and chairs. But the wait to get a seat is long. We stood and ate, and had very good conversations with a couple from England who also stood and ate and talked. It is a place to be checked out. Don't miss it. Ambience is great.

The options you have in this place are amazing. This is like a food court on steroids. We walked around there twice trying to decide where to go. The pastel were good and so was my meal. I highly recommend this place. We wanted to go back but didn t have time.

Could be anywhere, definitely not a must do - it's a real tourist trap. I didn't see any Portuguese people, paid 20 euros for an OK pizza, struggled to find a seat and felt like I was in London.

Great place to grab many different bites.

Great place to grab many different bites.
The variety is huge and what we tried was delicious.
Unfortunately it is always crowded and hard to find a place to sit.
For small groups won't be a problem, but large ones will have a hard time trying to be together.

I accidentally took a free tram ride from Belem to this market hall. I m really sorry for not paying for the ticket, I thought the card I had at the time was valid. No one caught me, but still, I am guilt ridden over the 1.50 euro I didn t pay the public transportation of Lisbon. Market is overpriced compared to other quality local establishments.

Super nice place and various stands to eat from. The concept is amazing BUT, good luck finding a seat... it took me 10 minutes to find a place, my meal was no longer hot when I got to sit down. They should think of a better system for seats as they don t monitor the number of meals served and the number of seats available... it was frustrating.

An authentic market but with a subtle difference. The left and right hand sides of the market are full of meat, fish, flowers and vegetable stalls full of local people. The large central hall however is surrounded by food counters serving meals from almost every cuisine around the world. Interspersed with the food stalls and dotted about in the centre of the hall are drinks vendors, once again serving everything from vegetable smoothies to gin bars and everything in between. Just grab something to eat and drink and find a seat on one of the huge benches and enjoy.

The concept is brilliant and I suppose that all tourists visit there at least once.
On weekends the place is quite full and it seems that there aren t enough WCs for visitors, which could be a problem. We didn t spend much time there, mainly because the place is a bit too crowded and the music is extremely loud, as if you visited a large night club. With the loud and uncomfortable music in the background, how are visitors supposed to relax and have a good time there? We wonder, who chooses the volume of the music. It may not be healthy for the people who are working in the market hall.

Great choice of drink matched with your choice of food equals a lively place to spend an hour or two. A magnet for tourists and locals alike, slightly pricey over the local bars/restaurants but worth it for the novelty value.

Very artificial place. Not for the taste of local Lisboetas. Suitable for tourists and suburban individuals. Nice trendy chef's restaurant choices. Not a fan of this McDonald's self-service tray concept. Very expensive for the kind of service and food.

All the guild books rave about Time Out, and easy to see why. You could spend a hole evening eating, drinking and people watching. Food and drinks all very well priced and good quality.

A MUST when visiting Lisbon. Be prepared to wait a while and search for a table. Going in a big group is challenging to sit together. Great variety of cuisine and just an amazing buzz of activity all around

I was a bit disappointed. It seemed as a must visit place in Lisbon, and honestly speaking not worth your time. Crowded, so crowded and loud. You can eat the same food in other restaurants in Lisbon but with a nicer atmosphere and actually enjoying every bite of it, without being pushed around and not hearing your partner.

Great food market and totally spoilt for choice!Come slightly before noon to wander around as it can get really packed! We ordered a bunch of stuff to share and I think that s the only way to do it!
Had the beef burger (tasty!), turkey burger (which had a nice flavor but was slightly over cooked), salted fish cod (so tasty!), sea bass tar tar (yum!), francesinha (unsure how it compares to Porto but this was huge and a lil too salty for my liking!) and great Portuguese wines!

Good food market with plenty of options. Nothing in particular to stand out, you could probably find better and cheaper restaurant scattered throughout the city but this is a good option for lunch.

A great modern place to eat and shop. Lots of choices of food and gifts! Fish and fresh food market in the morning in the hall next door.
Sunday to Wednesday from 10 am to 12 pm Saturday from 10am to 02 am

Not worth it. Packed all the time. Food is ok but there are better places to eat nearby. Food markets in other cities are much better. Feels very gentrified and generic rather than local people doing local food. More food court than food market.

Amazing place with so many wonderful choices by local chefs. It operates more like an upscale, clean hipster food court if that makes sense. The only drawback is how overwhelmingly packed it can be and how it can be hard to find seats. As a solo traveler, I found it easier and preferred to sit on the sides on each restaurant with casual table services provided by each resto if you re able to grab a high chair.

This market/food court is great for lunch. So many choices to choose from and all at good prices. There s Chinese, Italian, American, Portuguese cuisine, and ice cream!! Better to come for lunch rather than dinner though because it s really crowded during dinner.
