Brew
The craft beer revolution is here in force: of the ever-changing list of 23 beers Brew has on tap, half a dozen are local. New York–style pizzas, whole or by the slice, accompany.
Baixa has traditionally been better known for sightseeing and shopping than nightlife, but the esplanades that have sprung up around Praça do Comércio in the past couple of years have changed the area’s vibe. There are now plenty of chic cocktail lounges to be found among the traditional ginjinha joints, making it a good starting point for a night's barhopping. There are a couple of late-opening clubs here, too.

Baixa's only full-blown dance club, housed in a former government ministry office, showcases leading electronic music DJs as well as rising talent, with raves most Fridays and Saturdays, and sometimes Thursdays, too. Doors usually open at midnight, with three or four DJs taking revelers through to breakfast.
Drink mead from a ceramic mug, eat flaming chouriço sausage, and pretend you're back in medieval times at this offbeat tavern. There are flickering candles and live folk performances.
