Café Luso is a fado house with a restaurant. With its plant in the effervescent Bairro Alto, it is located in the old wineries and stables of Palácio Brito Freire, which resisted the earthquake of 1755.

The Fado sessions begin at 8:00 p.m. and runs until 2:00 a.m. with intermissions, ideal for reestablishing the conversation and moving in space.
The performances of Fado take place in the noble area of the enclosure, to the center of the room; The curtains are closed, the light is low, it acts in an environment of proximity and recollection that involves musicians and clients.
Fado:
Fado, a musical form found in nineteenth-century Lisbon, plunges into the most and less expressible sentiments of us Portuguese.
It has become a fatality, so they express and define ourselves through love, the lack of love, the loss of a love and missing. The Fado submits everything and everyone, it deals with the way they deal with all this, resulting in a perennial portrait.
– Fado singers: Elsa Laboreiro (artistic director), Yola Dinis, Catarina Rosa, Filipe Acácio and Cristiano de Sousa (+ weekly guests)
– Instrumentalists: António Neto (viola), António Cardoso (Portuguese guitar) and Jorge Carreiro (double bass).
