Taberna e Mercearia Sebastião

Ribatejo


This 19th-century grocer's shop has had a sympathetic modern refit and now presents a cool, characterful, intimate space. You can eat well here – good three-pepper steak, octopus à lagareiro (with olive oil, garlic and potatoes) and it's a fine spot for a snack or a glass of wine.
