I was generally satisfied. For starters, the portions are quite big but very americanised; a bit over the top, as you can see with our Nutella pancakes with cookies on top, not bad, just a lot. Although it might look like your next-door hipster cafe, not everything that shines is gold. In reality, it's a bit lacklustre. At first glance, the atmosphere is very nice, but upon further inspection, you will start noticing the ridiculous amount of "motivational" words on the walls. Overall, it is very okay food and good service, but I have a feeling that in the next couple of years, the cheap furniture and slightly overpriced, not very high-quality food will catch up with them!

Very good prices. Very good red velvet croissant; it's not the "French" croissant, more like a brioche. You can sit inside, a bit noisy and not a lot of plugs to work, but it must be nice to hang out with friends.

A fantastic place with great food - i felt bad that I didn't have time to try more actually. The staff were amazing and they really made the place great. The decor was beautiful too. My colleague has an amazing latte but my cappucino was too bitter (maybe roasted too much?). My colleague also purchased the same after and was able to compare, confirming my suspicions. It was presented lovely but a bad coffee for some people can really ruin your morning, hence the 4 stars. I hope this can be improved because the value for money here is amazing.

Great breakfast and brunch cafe. We had a short wait for a table on Sunday at 2pm, but once seated, the service was quick and efficient. Food was freshly prepared and attractive. We shared the "Brunch for 2" and were very pleased. Portions were larger than expected and we brought most of the bread home with us. The menu was large and included small and large options; healthy and indulgent options. We will definitely return.

It’s overhyped. The coffee is better than in typical European places but worse than in Specialty Coffee Shops. The food is kinda okay. The tables are located semi-underground, so no proper daylight here

Great food. I have the Choupana bagel, red velvet croissant and a custard tart. Everything was delicious, the interior is fresh and clean and the staff were super helpful! 😀

I had a good experience at this coffee place for breakfast and brunch. The coffee was well-made and enjoyable, offering a pleasant flavor. The menu had a decent variety of options, and the portion sizes were really good. I found the prices to be reasonable for what was served. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere is lively. If you're looking for a reliable spot to grab a decent coffee and brunch, this place is definitely worth considering - especially since it's close to the metro.

We came to this cafe as it was mentioned as one of the best croissants in the city. I had one of the worst croissants I have ever eaten here. There are no layers to it, its just one thick layer dough. Staff were friendly and quick so complaint there.

(They have red velvet croissants!) Nice bakery/restaurant next to the Saldanha metro station on the yellow line. Location wise it’s quite nice for a breakfast/lunch stop in between or before touristic activities. We went for the lunch menus (9€) with soup, orange juice, coffee (espresso), 1X “pasta de nata” and then you have options, we got one with an avocado/egg sandwich and another one with yogurt (that comes with 2 toppings). We also tried the red velvet croissant (the only place in Lisbon that we found for this!). Photos with everything that we ordered plus the menu from today 16.11.2022 attached. The host speaks English, so it’s not a problem to order and get around. They are also very nice, helpful and the food came rather fast! The overall service is nice. I also like the interior design, very simple/classic and also very clean. Overall a very nice experience while in Lisbon, I highly recommend it A+.

We went for the brunch on Sunday morning, there was a short waiting time to get a table. We ordered the Choupana lovers brunch, the variety was so good! It was hard to finish all of it. Also, the waitress was attentive and so nice.

Large place with lots of seats inside and outside. The breakfast food was fairly good, and the croissants were tasty. My only advice is to not get one of the special croissants to yourself if you don’t absolutely need a huge sugar high. They are more like huge, full desserts and not a sweet treat to enjoy over a morning coffee.

Cute place... but not sure what the hype is about! Very confusing to enter, with two lines and people standing at the door with no indication of which is for takeout or dine-in. We were ushered to a takeout counter where we saw many croissant options (including some that were empty but still had a label up). We ordered the last red velvet croissant and two iced Americanos - 1 small and 1 large. The red velvet “croissant” was delicious but it is absolutely not a croissant. The dough is soft and chewy, not flaky as a croissant should be. Delicious pastry but merely in the shape of a croissant! We waited another few minutes for our Americanos - which were hot instead of iced, and the “small” Americano we ordered was actually a cold Espresso... Then we were given a plastic card to take to another counter to pay... All in all, mediocre coffee and good sweets but not entirely worth the confusion/wait...

Really like the place to enjoy amazing pastry and read a book. I´ve realized they are always quiet busy but they manage to help you soon. They put your orders in a smart card and when you are done you can go and pay at the cash register. The croissant was absolutely delicious.

Very good place to have breakfast.

A very cozy coffee shop if you're looking for a nice place to have breakfast, brunch or an afternoon snack, depending on the time of the day you go to it can be packed or not. Pretty nice spot to study as well for an hour or 2. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious!

Food was delicous and tasty! Very popular place so there was a long line for a table but service was great and the food and pastries were so good. Definitely worth it.

Went for breakfast, and the croissants were so good, especially the Nutella ones. The freshly squeezed orange juice really topped it off. The service was great as well! Will be back for sure, so good!

It’s a nice place to go for brunch but it’s overpriced as per the food. Drinks are not recommended.

A good quality, stylish caffé with affordable prices. I've been a customer of Choupana Caffé for quite some time now. My first visit was back in 2020 (shortly before Covid) in this very same location i'm writing this review. All my other experiences with them have been in their other establishment with the same name in Parque das Nações. Right out of the gate, they're completely different. The one located in Parque das Nações is smaller and less busy, and you get served almost instantly. This one is super busy and crowded (the fact that it was sunday, afternoon obviously didn't help), and i had to wait 10 minutes do get a table, and 10 more minutes to get a croissant and a cappuccino brought to me. The caffé functions more like a restaurant than a typical caffé because you ask for a table first, then ask for the food and you pay afterwards. Because of this it can get a bit confusing for newcomers, specially on busy days. When you arrive, you usually have 2 rows: 1) The first one leads to the counter that faces the entrance and it's for take out orders. 2) The second one (usually leading down the stairs to the left) is where you must go to if you want to ask for a table. Afterwards, you are taken to a designated table and are given a menu. The payment is done in the first counter that's facing the entrance door. The food is great. The red velvet croissant is probably their best signature 'dish' and, quite honestly, it's hard to find an alternative that's equally as good in the city (not to say there isn't any!). The cappuccino was well presented and tasted good (nothing to lose your mind over). I'm gonna give 4 stars for the quality of the service and the fact that they can make offer a quality service for a still affordable price tag. The long waiting time made me consider give 3 stars, but since it was sunday afternoon, i guess it should be expected. The staff was very nice and friendly. A must stop for most visitors.

Nice cafe to have breakfast or brunch. They have affordable menu options with orange juice and coffee included. The service was fast and friendly. The only disappointing point that they have the menu only in Portuguese. However, google translate helped and we could find what we wanted. I will definitely come here again.

We loved the breakfast and the pastries here. We did come back a second day as we wanted to try other items on the menu. If we stayed long we would have gone again lol! That's how good their food was.

The food was just okay, nothing amazing. Croissants were not soft, waffle didn't have much flavor, neither the coffee. It's not bas but it's not great. The place is cute but some old furniture is falling apart and chairs are super uncomfortable!! not ideal if you want to stay and chat with friends. The service was excellent.

A lot of choices. If u have difficulty in selecting, be careful🤭. The bagel was soft and not a stone, good! The french toast was also delicious. Next time really will try the croissants…. (Many selection again!!)

They do have a nice breakfast menu. Food is delicious and the portions are so great for a really good price. We visited twice and both times the waiter was just so nice!

A very nice coffee spot with a variety of snacks & filled croissants! We were staying nearby and we were visiting it very early in the morning! The staff was very friendly also!

The food is so good that I want to try them all! There is a nice variety and the bakery/pastries are really good too. I definitely recommend their pancakes and crossaints!

If you love cakes, then you will just love this place. Friendly staff, who allowed me to practise my bad Portuguese, very clean surroundings, and a wide choice of croissants, cakes, and other items. My red velvet croissant was to die for, along with a Pasteis de Nata (not photoed as I’d eaten it by the time I remembered!). Pop in for a visit and enjoy!

I had the red velvet croissant. It was quite bit and very tasty. Many yummy sweet choices!

Nice place for lunch and brunch, plenty of choice. Tasty but not a real French croissant. They have a nice terrace. Fast and friendly staff while busy.

Best place in Lisbon to have a healthy and good Breakfast. It's quite busy there but it's worth the wait. The hard working personnel were professionals but in my opinion could use less workload and more coleagues to do the work.

The staff is so nice and kind!! Perfect for a breakfast. Prices are also good and croissants are huge and delicious
