COMOBA, Lisbon - Bairro Alto, Bica & Cais do Sodré - Menu, Prices & Restaurant Reviews

Is this a juice / smoothie bar?

Yes

Unsure

Details. matter. Comobå is located near the beautiful Tejo River in Lisbon’s city centre. Once an old pharmacy, we decided to revive its century-old arches and polish the original flagstone floors to honour its traditional architecture. The coffee shop opened its doors in 2018, focusing on honesty, craftsmanship, local production and real food. Our specialty coffee is fair trade and organic and our artisanal matcha tea is sourced directly from Japan. We use organic, seasonal produce from local farmers and fishermen, and all our ceramics are handmade in the Algarve region of Portugal. Our food and drinks are made from original, natural ingredients. We use no refined sugar and no processed products of any kind.

There's no place like COMOBA in Lisbon. As you enter you'll be welcomed by a chill and cozy environment and, most importantly a smiley and friendly team that always make you feel at home. Regarding there food, you will get the freshest ingredients always with a smile and a zest of love. Don't forget to indulge in their delicious coffee and homemade nut milk. For me, COMOBA isn't in the business of selling people food but in the business of nourishing them and make them happy!!

We’ve been to Comoba for a late breakfast and it’s been just really great. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The coffee was super good! Plus they have alternatives to dairy milk, such as Oatly. We had the burrito and the chia porridge - both very yummy and filling dishes. Would definitely go back! Highly recommended :)

Thank you for the feedback and the great review. The Burrito and Chia porridge are classics, we are happy you enjoyed your breakfast with us. Looking forward to welcome you again soon!

First day I went into Comoba with my family of 4, I was seeking specialty coffee and had no issues. Next day I went in on my own, I was on my second flat white after having the avo toast which was alright. Anyway with my second flattie nearly finished I was checking maps on my phone. I was approached several times to seek if I needed anything else. However I found this interference as a "Aren't you leaving already" kind of approach, your coffee is nearly finished so buy something else or go, not nice.

Thank you for your feedback! We regret that you did not have a great experience second time around. We want our customers to feel well taken care of, with a waiter by your side to help with whatever needed. However, if this approach caused the impression that you were not welcome to stay, we sincerely apologise. You are obviously welcome to stay for as long as you like! We hope to see you again soon to make up for that last experience with us.

Unfortunately this place is all aesthetic & no effort been put into the food, the menu sucks. To be polite, didn’t have food on the menu which sucks even more. You’re a restaurant and you have one job. Supply food 😅 It makes sense why it was sold out though the whole menu sucked. No one goes to a cafe to pay almost 4 euros for crisps American term chips, is this a joke. You guys really think you’re in Lisbon or NY Secondly the salad has 0 flavour, I didn’t see any lemon or even a pinch of salt seasoned on the avocado. How sonhou ruin salad? Just make a dressing and add the toppings. Glasses are cheap, the glad of green juice they made tasted like water, this may be petty but I was just tired of the whole experience at this point. When I say petty and the glasses being cheap I picked up the glass from my table it slipped from my hand, maybe 2cms of the table and the whole glass broke. You could at least get some proper glasses, staff weren’t rude but there was clearly attitude there. Your customers will give you attitude if you’re asked to pay 10 euros for a salad, or 10 Euros for porridge 😂😂 10 euros for porridge, I honestly do not understand how you guys got to your price point on the menus but it’s horrendous, this coming from someone who doesn’t care to pay any amount for good food. Try the restaurants in around you and you will see the levels you has set is just not up to par. What you have done with the space is really really cute and looks nice. But that’s where it starts and ends the whole experience after that was utter garbage. I paid 20 euros for straight trash. This is only constructive criticism but you need to higher a new person to create your menu and a chef, creating a cute plate doesn’t mean delicious food. And before the chef says I wonder how well he cook, let’s just say I’m verified as a chef I hope you’re not offended and take this as a way to be much better. Because truly it sucked today, was so excited to come and try the spot and was just incredible disappointed! All the best and hope you do better in the future

Apparently they now have “seating rules”. For instance one is not allowed to sit at a table with a bench if one is reading on one’s iPad. Of course, the rule is not advertised anywhere; I don’t think it’s not enforced. But I do think that this is a terrible (and increasingly common in Lisbon) way of patronising one’s patrons. Apart from that, food is mediocre but passable, they’re were out of desserts in late afternoon. Service is passable. I will not return.

Tge food is healthy and delicious. We ate matcha pancakes and the burrito and the portions are quite big. We also drank iced chai latte and caramel lattes and all were delicious. The chai latte was not too sweet and reminded me of the masala tea I drank in UAE. I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys healthy, delicious food and is looking for the place to have breakfast or brunch at. We will again have breakfast there tomorrow! :))

The food, service, and overall vibe of this place would have gotten 5 stars, but it is unbearable HOT inside. I am not sure how the staff, who were incredible manage to maintain such high levels of hospitality with the heat they are forced to endure all day. I would have stayed all day to work but had to leave because it was like a sauna inside.

The space is ample and simple and it´s very inviting!! BUT it´s really uncomfortable to sit in those low hard wooden stools, they are made for you to have a quick something and leave. The banana bread was awful, it´s one of my favorite things to eat in the morning, this one was like rubber or gum texture. When i told the server about this he said that was the way they did it. The Cappucino was good.

Few tables occupied. We ordered coffee, juice, veggy sandwich and toast. They bring out the coffees and juices. 30 minutes later they tell us that sandwiches are only served at noon. For the toast to come out you still have to wait another 10 minutes. Everything is delicious, but the pace is unbearable. If you don't have an hour to have breakfast, it's better to choose another place

Comoba Lisboa Cafe, Lisbon: One of the most beautiful cafes I have seen. It’s so clean, minimalist and the white purity is broken up by the foliage of tropical green Monstera plants. It’s so well contrasted with the Portuguese blue. It feels so good to be here. Even the toilet is so well designed. This is an interior designer’s dream café. #eatstylishtravelstylish

First place I've seen in Lisbon that does peanut butter on toast. Maybe I wasn't looking hard enough but PB seems rare here. The tasty toast and a coffee for €6 pretty good deal. They're also big on "mashed" avocado. Table service and staff are friendly, with excellent English. Place was a little cold with the door kept open though.

The location is impressive, but the rest was a bit disappointing. The staff was friendly, however the food and drinks didn't convince us at all. A fancy place to visit - but nothing for my taste. The prices are also completely exorbitant.
