Healthy food

I have been here quite a few times, always good for juices, smoothies, health shots, energy balls. Unfortunately I couldn’t try the bread / sandwiches, as they are with wheat, so I had salads (salads could be with more sauce, they are quite dry). Location is nice and very central.

OTTIMO

Bellissimo locale, arredato con stile e con ampia stanza al piano superiore per gustare i piatti.
Ampia scelta, personale cortese.
Non solo cibo ma anche abbiagliamento.

Fancy place, excellent food

Was there for lunch, the place is really nice. We got panini and smoothies, which were absolutely delicious. A bit expensive, maybe.

Pros: Locations, Variety

Cons: Price

healthy and tasty

I really like this café/concept store (they sell beautiful things like decoration items, natural cosmetics, etc) where you can enjoy fabulous healthy food. It is tasty and their juices are really good too. I had the tundra panini with smoked tofu, pesto, cashew cream, dried tomatoes etc. in a whole wheat bread and it was just perfect!! This place is beautifully decorated and i liked the pictures of vegan athletes upstairs. I noticed they sell a products with bee pollen so they are definitely not vegan but rather into the "plantbased trend". As long as the food keeps this quality, I'll come back!

Pros: lot of fresh juices, very tasty and high quality, lovely items to shop

Cons: bee pollen found in one product, probably more expensive than regular place

Fresh health food café

This café serve delicious salads, smoothie bowls and lattes. The space has an eco/organic feeling and is always buzzing with people. It is really fun to see Eight Health Lounge thriving since day one.

I'm in love with this place. The environment, food/drink options, location, staff... It's an amazing spot to relax, work on your computer and eat something vegan and healthy! And the people there are so sweet!!! :) I recomend it, for sure, but i hope it doesn't get crowded!

Pros: Great smoothies and paninis! Healthy shots are goo

Cons: i'm afraid it will get crowded with time

Lugar lindo

Adorei conhecer o Eight, lugar lindo com muitas opções e variedades!!! Minha tosta Tundra estava saborosa, fiquei muito contente, porém pedi com cogumelo no lugar de tofu defumado e não veio nenhum dos dois. Também foi servido uma pequena quantidade de suco 😕

Healthy with a view

The menu of Eight is varied, fully plant-based, using whole foods. They serve juices, smoothie bowls, salad bowls, sandwiches and toasts, they also have small cookies, raw truffles, etc.

They make their own cashew cheese spread, which is delicious, and use overall very fresh and whole ingredients.

"Eight" is based on eight principles for leading a healthy life inspired by their religious views.

The dining room is quite big, able to host groups, and with a nice view over Praca da Figueira.

Although the food is meant to be “healthy fast food”, the service takes a bit of time.

The shop downstairs carries eco-sustainlable householdproducts.
