Atrium Saldanha

A smart, modern facility situated in the heart of Lisbon's business district, the Atrium is perhaps better known as an office complex â€" the business suites occupy the top nine floors of the building. The shopping gallery, located on the first three floors, comprises 78 stores and restaurants. The retail experience is limited â€" this is more a lunchtime drop-in for browsing perfumes, cosmetics etc. and picking up prescriptions from the pharmacy. The real draw is the Food Hall, where several restaurants and cafes do a roaring trade, again especially during lunch hour when executives from the offices above and beyond take their 60 minutes over plates of regional cuisine, fast food burgers or oriental sushi. Afternoon tea is accompanied by live piano music!
