Cultura Lounge Bar is a jazz bar in the Santos district of Lisbon, a short walk from Cais do Sodré and Bairro Alto.

If you're looking for a genuine jazz bar in Lisbon, Cultura Lounge Bar is where to spend the evening. Jazz has been part of Cultura's stage from day one — from soulful piano trios to jazz standards played by touring and resident musicians. Located in Santos, just a short walk from Cais do Sodré and Bairro Alto.
A professional stage and high-quality sound system mean every set — whether it's a solo piano set, a jazz & blues band, or a vocalist backed by piano and double bass — is heard exactly as intended.
Comfortable sofas and armchairs make Cultura an ideal place to enjoy dinner, cocktails and live jazz with friends or someone special. Reserving your table in advance is recommended, since seats with the best view of the stage fill up on jazz nights.
Cultura Lounge Bar hosts jazz several times a week, in different formats:
Sets range from intimate solo piano to full bands, and many musicians weave original compositions in among the classics — songs by Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday and Nina Simone appear regularly alongside newer material. The full schedule, with exact dates and times for each jazz night, is in the Agenda section of the website.
