Ambiance calme, décoration sympa et staff très sympathique. Tout a l'air délicieux, surtout les plats. On a goûté les croissants, très bons. Le jus d'orange frais et pressé est bon aussi ! Un spot très sympa !

Must visit! - Edit
Amazing café, all fully VEGAN. Great atmosphere. Very kind and helpful staff. Best coffee of our entire Portugal trip. All the food was very tasteful and well seasoned. We actually came back the day after because we wanted our friends to check the café out as well!! 100% would recommend.

Great fully vegan brunch - Edit
Wonderful little café/bistro offering a large selection of brunch items and pastries. Service is very friendly and tried their hardest to deal with an incredibly busy time. Although the café was very buzzy when we arrived, it was worth the wait. It's well worth a visit in sunny Lisbon.

Nice place - Edit
Overall, I enjoyed my visit to GAL Cafe, which I would rate as 3.5 stars, if I could. There’s a good range of stuff on the menu and most of it is pretty healthy. I had the GAL Tropical salad and quite enjoyed it. One star knocked off for two reasons. Firstly, the service was friendly but very slow - we waited about 40 minutes for our food, which was a bit rubbish. Second reason is, we ordered peppermint tea and they barely put enough water in the tea pot for 2 small cups of tea. I asked for more water and they added just enough for one more tiny cup. That’s not good enough on what is the most profitable thing on the menu.

very tasty food, very nice staff - Edit
highly recommended for breakfast/small lunch. they have cheaper options like tofu scramble with toast, but also some burgers that are a good size meal if you want it to last more than an hour.
Read morethe staff was super super nice.
we went twice in 3 days - worth a visit :)
Pros: food, prices, staff

Hip Vegan! - Edit
After a lengthy visit to the extraordinary St. Anthony's Cathedral, we required refueling; and, as such, ended-up at the highly rated GAL (all-caps), a hipster-type neighborhood restaurant. A couple of thirst-quenching Musa's "P$ycho Pilsner" was first in order. For lunch, I ordered their roasted tempeh on a ciabatta roll, with a cashew cream, salad and pickled carrots and onions. The ciabatta roll was soft and delicious; the roasted tempeh was nice (perhaps a bit on the soft-side for my liking; but still good); sandwich accompaniments were fresh and tasty. Overall, it was a very pleasant lunch that satisfied my hunger pangs. GAL is good food!

Great for a Lite Bite - Edit
This coffee shop is super hipster and serves yummy light bites. The service was awesome and super friendly. If you’re looking for a cool place with indoor and outdoor seating and great music, you’ve found it! The food was really good, especially the Gal Tropical. It had a bunch of flavors that went together really well. The hummus bed the food was served on had a Tahini forward flavor that went really well with the mango and avocado slices.The crispy tofu was coated in Panko that made it exceptionally crispy.

Nice café - Edit
I bought a cookie and a pastel de nata to take away. Very good tastes, though the cookie was very hard - was great dipped in camomile tea later on. Looked like a nice place for a leisurely cup of coffee.

Just ok - Edit
So 🤔 I know that there are some great reviews here with 5 stars … but for a bakery .. just wasn’t really all that great … had the ham and cheese croissant 🥐… croissant was void of fresh taste… and we were there just as it opened… also the cheese and ham were deli slices… if I had gone to a deli then perfect … but this was a bakery cafe … expected a little bit more … BUT… the prices were very respectable

O melhor pequeno almoço vegan em Lisboa! - Edit
Até agora ainda só provei itens de pequeno almoço. Amanhã já vou aventurar-me em mais alguma coisa do menu de almoço mas devo dizer que tudo o que provei até agora foi absolutamente incrível! Os donos são amigáveis e atenciosos e o staff no geral são extremamente proativos e atentos! Este pequeno café, que pode passar despercebido é a minha nova obsessão! Obrigada por existirem, tornam os meus dias muito mais deliciosos! 😋

Delicious breakfast - Edit
We tried the ham and cheese croissant which was so delicious! And also had the espresso chocolate pancakes, they’re very rich chocolatey and the pancakes are so thick and fluffy. Very friendly staff. Cute atmosphere cafe. Great meal all round.
