About York Bar/ Burger,Bifana,Tapas, Cocktails
A lunch or evening at York Bar lands differently from most places in Alfama — the owners are the show, famously funny and genuinely invested in the table in front of them. The bifana is the thing people keep coming back for, and the sangria and margaritas are mixed with enough care that they get their own mentions. The hot dog and homemade fries round out a short menu that punches above its size. It is a family-run operation, cash only, and the pace is its own — but what arrives is worth the wait.
