Casa Das Bifanas - Azeitao

One reason we loved our Lisbon on Wheels Tour Guides Nuno and Victoria is that they took us to local hangouts like this!! They seemed a bit hesitant to expose us to this fantastic local sandwich shop, but we were hungry and ready for an authentic Portuguese taste sensation. Oh my...what an experience! So, this is fast food, Portuguese style. We felt so lucky to be shown the ropes of Bifanas and the homemade soups at this little diner. We stopped on our way back from two Setubal wineries and were ready for a little something more substantial than water crackers:) The Bifanas were actually very tasty. Accompaniments included yellow mustard or Piri-Piri, a spicy pepper sauce. Yum! We also tried a soup made with what appeared to be turnips and kale which was the perfect starter. The sandwich, which was served on crusty bread, featured tender, flavorful, pounded pork cutlets. The pork had most likely been marinated and then slowly cooked until tender. It was herby, garlicky, savory and spicy with the addition of the "Extra Forte" Piri-Piri...unlike any sandwich I've had or may ever have again. Delish! We saw a lot of mountain bikers while on the Setubal peninsula, and I'm sure a Bifanas makes a perfect post-ride as well as post-wine tasting meal. When in Portugal, try the Bifanas!

I really loved this place. We were very hungry and got fully served. Very tasty and good prices.

Wow! We were driving out to Lisbon on the N10and this gorgeous smell hit our noses. We thought so hungry suddenly and so decided we would double back on the, rather brilliantly positioned roundabout not 20 metres from the place. Parked up, went in and were greeted with such funny and friendly staff. I had all the meat on the plate option witu extra cheese and egg and Susa had the prom in a bun. Absolutely lovely and a future pit stop for any traveller midway between the Aarabida and Lisbon. Magic

Great value for money, the amount and quality of the food at the price is fantastic. Efficient staff too.
