About Taberna Lebre
Taberna Lebre is a compact gastropub in central Ericeira that has built a devoted following around its signature pregos—juicy steak sandwiches on freshly baked bread with crispy potato wedges. The menu, though short and focused, ranges beyond the classic prego to include braised pork sandwiches (Sandes da Avó), creative vegetarian options like eggplant and goat cheese, and tuna sandwiches praised for their freshness. Reviewers consistently highlight the quality of ingredients—tender beef, citric-forward sauces, paprika-spiced fries—and the speed of service, making it ideal for a satisfying lunch or casual dinner without the formality of a full restaurant. The space is intimate, with a handful of outdoor seats spilling into Ericeira's charming narrow streets. Craft beers and wine round out the offering, and prices sit at the lower end of the local dining spectrum, reinforcing its reputation as a no-fuss, flavour-forward neighbourhood gem.
In the last 90 days, Taberna Lebre has drawn 5 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.
