Marquise da Mobler
A brunch spot with a garden that feels like a secret escape. The French toast with poached pear and coconut yogurt is a favorite, moist, balanced, and not overly sweet. If you prefer savory, the Vietnamese pulled pork sandwich or the sweet potato and shrimp tartine are solid choices. It gets busy and some items sell out fast, so coming early is a good idea.

Sea Me Peixaria Moderna
This contemporary restaurant offers a Portuguese / Japanese fusion seafood menu, with a different concept: you need to ask. Yes, similar to a omakase experience, you choose the fish and let them design the dishes around that.

Potato Project
A little piece of Amsterdam in the heart of Lisbon. This little gem specializes in deliciously crispy fries, served with a variety of toppings and sauces that will leave you spoiled for choice.

ISCO - Pão e Vinho
If you love freshly baked bread and pastries that actually taste like they’re made with love, ISCO is the place. Their cardamom buns, pistachio croissants, and sourdough loaves have a serious fan following, and the open bakery setup lets you watch the magic happen. It’s cozy, the staff is friendly, and the smells alone are worth stopping by. Not the cheapest bakery in town, but definitely one of the best.

Mexico City, Mexico

It’s one of the coolest spots in Mexico City, no doubt. It’s not a place to work, but it’s super cool, super comfortable, full of personality, with great coffee and tasty food and at night it turns into a bar, and their espresso martini is spectacular!!

Mexico City, Mexico

I think this place is beautiful!! It’s a very good size — not too small, not too big — and I really liked the coffee and matcha. I also love that they have little things for sale, like home décor and cute trinkets :)

Mexico City, Mexico

Very cute, and it’s awesome that everything is red. They have delicious coffee and matcha!! It feels super artisanal and it’s really comfortable for hanging out and chatting with friends. Not the best for working, but it’s doable.

Mexico City, Mexico

What I like most is that it’s a place perfectly suited for working from home: lots of outlets, individual tables, table service so you don’t have to keep getting up (like in a restaurant). Good music, though a bit loud for taking calls. I love it for breakfast, grabbing a coffee or chai, and settling in for a good while.

Granja M. Viader
