About this tip
Mercado de Campo de Ourique has served its neighborhood since 1934, and fresh fish and vegetable stalls still work beside the food hall added in 2013. The hall serves anything from traditional Portuguese plates to Japanese, with wine by the glass, and people eat there at any time of day. Take tram 25 or 28 to the last stop, or get off one stop earlier by the Santo Condestável church, directly across from the entrance.
