It's been a long time that I wanted to write about one of my favorite Lisbon bars. Procopio is the perfect bar to go if all you want to have is a drink and chat with your friends.
The mood of the bar is different, maybe for the lack of natural light, or it's Art Nouveau decoration, the bossa nova music style playing on the background, the super gracious service and the tons of imagery information you collect while having a nice glass of Port Wine or a beer, all along with some hot popcorn. The customers age range is what most surprises me there. You can meet people from twenties to sixties, all having fun.
The bar is located very close to the Amoreira's Garden (check the Amoreira's Garden article), and it's kind of hidden in a very charming and old alley. As you find the bar, you have to ring to be let in, but don't worry, the bar door will be opened and you will be received in the best of ways!
