Gaya Veggie Market & Coffee Shop
100% vegan €€
Part café, part grocer, out in Lumiar. People come for what they call the best falafel in Lisbon and leave with a bag of things they did not plan to buy.
What to order
- 1 Falafel
- 2 Risotto de cogumelos
- 3 Almôndegas de grão
- 4 Brigadeiros
Insider tip
The brigadeiros are made to a low-glycaemic recipe and still taste like brigadeiros. Closed Sundays and it shuts at four on Saturday, so this is a weekday plan.
The area
Lumiar is northern Lisbon, well past where the trams turn around. Residential, green, and home to a handful of places that serve the neighbourhood rather than the city.
