José Maria Robertson (Cinco Lounge, The Royal Cocktail Club) and Daniel Zamith (Bistro 100 Maneiras, Onda Cocktail Room) are two of the creative minds behind The Monarch, a bar that quickly became a must-visit spot in the increasingly bustling Rua da Boavista. Well-known within the Lisbon cocktail scene, Robertson and Zamith, together with Yasmin Ramos, ensure a consistent menu featuring 10 original cocktails with influences from all over the world. Each creation is pure magic.

Insider tip. There’s a safe in the bathroom hall that is now used as a towel rack.
