Apéro - Benfica

Cosy pleasant place to have a chilled drink and some sophisticated snacks with friends after work or before dinner. A very well know concept in France, l'aperitif, who was graciously brought to Lisbon by the gracious owners of Apero.

Apero @aperoemlisboa) is the new place in Campo de Ourique where you can go to have your afternoon drink and grab a snack before dinner or, if you’re really into it, enjoy a tapas meal. The place holds like 20 people seated in its cozy chairs, the music matches the ambiance of the place and everything is very clean at sight. We were welcomed by one of the owners, a Portuguese actor that we believe is new in this “game”, who friendly presented us the menu. We tried the champagne B.J. Barbier Tradition @champagne_bjbarbier_landragin) that was the special selection of the week and went for an assortment of snacks from the sweet potato chips, sausage board, azeitão cheese with nuts and honey and also the toasted bread, that we gently nicknamed “toasted croutons”. Everything very well presented and matching our expectations. Along with the champagne, we also tried for the first time a glass of Aperol a sweet mellow and fresh drink, perfect for these summer days. We really enjoyed the concept of this new trendy spot, perfect to hit after a long journey of work or simply to relax before the night comes in.Our rating 4/5
