Café Luso since 1927 – Portugal’s oldest Fado house! Some places don’t just tell the story of Fado, they are part of it.
Lisbon Tourism MemberFounded in 1927, Café Luso is a living Fado museum. It is the oldest Fado house in Portugal and has accompanied major milestones in the history of this musical genre, an Intangible Heritage of Humanity since 2011.
It's in the heart of Lisbon's Bairro Alto that you'll find the Café Luso restaurant, a former 18th century wine cellar and stables that withstood the devastating earthquake of 1755. This historic setting is the backdrop for the thrilling melodies of fado.
Café Luso is more than just a fado restaurant; it's a museum that breathes the fado tradition. On the walls echo the voices of countless fado legends, creating a moving and inspiring atmosphere. It was there, for example, that the first Fado disc was recorded live by Amália Rodrigues.
