Residential calm east of Anjos and Graça — coworking off the tourist track.
Penha de França is the residential parish east of Anjos and north-east of Graça, on one of Lisbon's quieter hills. The district is mostly mid-20th-century apartment blocks with a handful of older houses surviving on the side streets, and a daily life that runs at a notably calmer pace than the city centre. Coworking presence is small — Impact Hub Lisbon's Penha location anchors the offer — and members are typically remote workers who live nearby or actively want a non-touristy work environment.
The district doesn't appear on most tourist itineraries, which is part of its appeal. Coworking here is calm, well-priced relative to central Lisbon, and Metro-accessible (Olaias station, Red Line, is the closest). Most members are individual professionals, small teams, and remote employees of European companies who don't need a central address.
Light and residential. Members are mostly freelancers, hybrid workers, and small studios. Lunch options are modest — neighbourhood tascas and a few cafés on Rua Morais Soares.
