Versailles

Like its namesake, patisserie and tea house Versailles has an opulent and ornately decorated atmosphere. A Lisbon landmark in Bairro do Rigo since 1922, Versailles continues to serve baked delicacies and hot drinks to humble crowds daily. Visitors can marvel at art nouveau elements, vintage chandeliers, and ornamented ceilings and walls. Early arrivals are rewarded with warm breakfast pastries such as pastéis de nata or flaky melt-in-the-mouth croissants. Lunchtime is a more savory experience, with hearty servings of honest Portuguese grub.
