Statue paying tribute to one of Portugal's greatest literary genius.

Loved the statue of Pessoa, I’m a big fan of his work and this statue is a great stop in the city to pay tribute to a magnificent artist.

Just take a photo and avoid the bar , more expensive than Paris ! (Whereas Lisbonne is twice cheap than Paris)
F. Nobels
Beautiful statue of Fernando Pessoa. You can sit next to the statue to take a picture.
Camellia Yang
The most underrated writer in history.

All coffee-d out, we went for one here to simply add to the culture of the trip. It’s a historical landmark (a bronze, eater depiction of Portuguese writer and literary figure Fernando Pessoa (steps away from the oldest physical bookstore I may add).

It is a great place in crossover with contemporary and heritage decor. The foods and services are good although it is bit cosy. It is worth and not disappointed experience anyway.

Their Pastéis de nata was yummy. They have other desserts options as well. Their Latte is basic. Dont attempt to order any other coffee.

Wonderful experience at this famous cafe. Excellent coffee and pastries to be savoured. Kick back and watch the world go by. Don't forget to have a look inside, it's so ornate and old world beautiful. Check out the pastry display cases which are incredible. I'm going back here...

We came as a group of three on a Monday afternoon due to a recommendation of a friend. Our cappuccino and coffees americano were really great. Rarely have I had such excellent coffee!
Be aware of possible waiting time for a table outdoor. Still, it's worth waiting the 15 minutes.

This sculpture stands in tribute to Fernando Pessoa, a Portuguese poet and writer considered one of the most significant literary figures of the Portuguese language.

The monument is a larger than life bronze sculpture of Pessoa depicted seated having his regular morning coffee on this same street. There's an extra seat as part of the sculpture for the great many tourists and locals who like to have their selfie taken with the writer.
