LxFactory - by Andrew Nguyen on Google





Description
Lx Factory is a repurposed factory complex in an industrial area, at the border between central and western Lisbon. It consists of a wide range of artistic and cultural shops, food stores, bars, and restaurants. The exterior has been left untouched so that it exudes a raw and gritty vibe, but the indoor areas are surprising and welcoming.
Access & Transport
The complex is in the Alcantara neighbourhood of Lisbon, a short walk from the 'Calvario' tram stop (18) and the Alcantara-Mar train station. There are some parking spaces inside.
Instructions & Recommendations
Shopping is best during the day and F&B in the evening
Environmental & Social
Repurposing of an existing factory with economic rejuvenation of the neighbourhood. Thumbs up
Conclusion
Lx Factory follows a trend of making areas that had hitherto fallen in disuse into fashionable venues. It brings to Lisbon a creative and edgy side with a broad range of stores and F&B options. An excellent option for an evening out or simply check out unusual stores.
Key positive
Range of food choices
Repurposing of a factory rather than build anew
Key negative
None
Suitability
Suitable for all ages but best for the younger adult crowd. Most shops (but not all) should be accessible for visitors with reduced mobility
