General note: you may see it’s mostly food and not sites lol. Portugal is best for eating, chilling, and walking around to see the pretty buildings and nice views. All the museums we went to had a lot of old broken clay pots and models of ships so not much there. 

Lisbon 

Food

The top two are the most important on this list – must go

• Pastéis de Belém for egg tarts, “donuts”, cappuccinos 
• Churrasqueira da Paz for piri piri chicken and steak !!! 
• Cervejaria Ramiro for seafoods
• Academia de Sabores for feijoada (meat and bean stew) 
• Cascais Remo for classic Portuguese food
• If still in season, the oranges are as sweet as candy. Freshly squeezed orange juice at most cafes is great 

Sites

• Castelo de São Jorge and Jardim do Torel for views of the city 
• Jerónimos Monastery
• Oceanário de Lisboa (10/10 aquarium) 

Supermarkets

• Continente Bom Dia (chain store for groceries) 
• Pingo Doce – American size store 

Sintra (can be skipped) 

Food

• overpriced and touristy

Sites

• Quinta da Regaleira (good for a half day activity – very pretty grounds) 

Porto

Food

• Confeitaria do Bolhão for pastries/cafe 
• Sol e Sombra Bifanas for marinated pork sandwich 
• Gazela for cachorrinho (kinda like a sliced hot dog – good snack/quick lunch) 
• Marisqueira Antiga – kinda far out but great seafood
