Viking Bar

This gay bar in Lisbon's Cais do Sodre area sits inside what used to be the city's red light district, a neighborhood that's never really gone to bed. You'll find the typical easygoing vibe of Lisbon's LGBTQ+ bars here—a place for a drink, to meet locals, and to just take in the city's gay culture.

What makes it different: the live entertainment, especially a strip show that kicks off at midnight. That alone makes it a popular spot if you're looking for a performance as part of your night out.

Being in Cais do Sodre helps. It means you're already in an area packed with other bars and late-night spots. So if you feel like exploring, or hitting a few places, it’s all right there.

It’s a straightforward gay bar experience in a historic, lively part of the city. You'll find it at Rua Nova do Carvalho 7, right in the thick of Cais do Sodre.
