There might be strict meal schedules during the week, but when the weekend comes, it\u2019s a whole different matter.

Some locals like to have a quick espresso.

One <a href=\"\/blog\/custard-tarts-lisbon\/\">custard tart<\/a> might not be enough to fill you up, so most people will also order a <em>torrada<\/em> (butter toast) or a <em>tosta mista<\/em> (ham &amp; cheese toast).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Morning_Snack_10_am_to_11_am\"><\/span>Morning Snack (10 a.m. to 11 a.m.)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you\u2019re hungry and can\u2019t wait for lunch, then it\u2019s time for a morning snack. Portuguese call this their <em>lanche da manh\u00e3<\/em>. The word <em>lanche<\/em> sounds very similar to lunch which can be a bit confusing at first! Basically, this meal is a coffee break, usually paired with a sweet like a <em><a href=\"\/blog\/pasteis-de-nata\/\">pastel de nata<\/a><\/em> or a <em>bolo de arroz<\/em> (rice cake).

These menus usually include a soup, <em>prato do dia <\/em>(dish of the day), dessert, and a coffee. If they\u2019re really in a rush, they\u2019ll order something quick at the counter like a soup and a <em><a href=\"\/blog\/bifana\/\">bifana<\/a><\/em> (pork sandwich).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Afternoon_Snack_4_pm_to_5_pm\"><\/span>Afternoon Snack (4 p.m. to 5 p.m.)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You can get through the day without an afternoon snack, but why would you? Around 4 p.m., Portuguese will head to the caf\u00e9 for another quick bite. Sweet or savory? It\u2019s really up to you. We\u2019re not going to tell you off for having another <em>pastel de nata<\/em>. If you want something savory, however, we recommend trying the <em>past\u00e9is de bacalhau<\/em> (codfish cakes) or the <em>riss\u00f3is de camar\u00e3o<\/em> (shrimp turnovers).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Insider\u2019s tip:<\/strong> If you don\u2019t say <em>lanche da manh\u00e3<\/em>, <em>lanche<\/em> usually refers to this afternoon meal between lunch and dinner.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dinner_Time_in_Portugal_7_pm_to_10_pm\"><\/span>Dinner Time in Portugal (7 p.m. to 10 p.m.)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The best time to have dinner in Portugal is between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. While some restaurants will open at 7 p.m., most of them will still be empty at that time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>There are a few exceptions of course, especially if it\u2019s a famous restaurant like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Restaurant_Review-g189158-d2703366-Reviews-Cervejaria_Ramiro-Lisbon_Lisbon_District_Central_Portugal.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Cervejaria Ramiro<\/a>.

However, keep in mind that most kitchens will close before that.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On Fridays and Saturdays, it\u2019s common to have dinner a bit later, around 10 p.m.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Booking_a_Restaurant_in_Portugal\"><\/span>Booking a Restaurant in Portugal<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It\u2019s easy to book a restaurant in Portugal.
