LX Factory: one of the coolest places in Lisbon

After discovering the beauties of Castelo de São Jorge and Palácio da Ajuda, another must-see in Lisbon is the LX Factory in Alcântara neighborhood.

LX Factory was born in 2008! But this industrial property was created in 1846 to house a textile factory called Companhia de Fiação e Tecidos Lisbonense, and later the Companhia Industrial de Portugal e Colônias, Tipografia Comercial de Portugal and Gráfica Mirandela.

The place is a real creative island! It brings together shops, ateliers, art galleries and studios of different segments, as well as bars and restaurants. There is no limit to innovation. The bohemian atmosphere and industrial aesthetics make up the scene. It is impossible to walk without falling in love!

The bookstore “Ler Devagar” is the perfect choice for book lovers. It is recognized by all tour guides as one of the most original in Europe. It has 3 floors of pure culture, in a unique environment!

The irreverent gift shop “Barrio Arte” fascinates you with its original and fun goods. Do not miss the opportunity to purchase one of their innovative design products!

The “Kare Lisboa” goes beyond a shop for decoration and furniture. With pieces in modern and different design, it is a must-have for inspiration.

The “Rutz – Walk in Cork” combines two basic products of the Portuguese economy: footwear and cork. The lightweight material creates comfortable and sophisticated pieces. The store’s proposal is “that women fall in love with the reinvention of cork, introducing color and design in a sexy, young and sophisticated urban footwear!”

Decoration, fashion and a cozy coffee! Wish is a place to dream about! There, you will find small and beautiful treats to take home! When entering the shop, you can enjoy a specialty coffee and enjoy the small Dutch pancakes of Wish slow coffee house!

The Rio Maravilha gastropub honorso two rivers: Rio Tejo in Lisbon, and Rio de Janeiro, a Brazilian city. From Rio Maravilha, we have a unique view of the 25 de Abril Bridge, one of the symbols of Lisbon. With signature cocktails, beers and wines, the restaurant has a menu inspired by the fusion of Portuguese and Brazilian recipes. Enjoy this special place on your next visit to Lx Factory!

Another interesting gastronomic option is the Cantina. This restaurant recreates the old facilities of Gráfica Mirandela, through the use of furniture and equipment of the original cafeteria, which has served countless generations of workers since 1946! Its Portuguese cuisine is based on traditions and the wood-fired oven.

At Lx Factory, everything inspires! The industrial environment remains alive and producing art, crafts and entertainment! Meet this amazing place and enjoy its unique atmosphere!
