We create simple products and traditional dishes where taste and the pleasure of eating are a cultural act. From these flavours, Chef Duarte Batista and his team make this science, from the Galega and Cordovil olive oil, to the cork oak meat, from the Guadalupe bread to the aromas that grow spontaneously in the torrid plains of the Alentejo...

Because this cuisine requires love, imagination and art, it is with excitement and great pleasure that we prepare this table so that with your friends, affinities and sympathies you can have a memorable meal.

Dear customer, please inform us of any allergies or dietary needs that we should take into account before preparing your order.

Claustro Lounge

Many historians point to the Espinheiro cloister as one of the first examples of Renaissance architecture in Évora, which reached its peak in the 30's, coinciding with the presence of King João III in the city for five consecutive years (from 1532 to 1537). Enjoy a light and relaxed meal in the iconic Claustros space.

Cisterna Wine Bar

Among the magic of the arcades where monks kept rainwater for centuries afterwards, we present the drink of the gods. The national and international nectars distributed in this space will revive those who started the fermentation of grape juice.
