Higher prices for coffee, bread and cake. But one of the view cafés where you will feel at home with your Apple Laptop on the desk. Since Lisbon is full with normal coffees, you don't see many modern cappuccino design cafés. In a portuguese café, you will not be able to order the italian cappuccino and you will surprise others by unpacking your laptop.
Although the portuguese cafés have Wifi and you CAN order café galão which is coffee with milk. You will find them everywhere!!
