Rūmu

Rumu - Review - Chiado - Lisbon - The Infatuation

"You’ve just wrapped up dinner in Chiado, maybe riding the high off that last cocktail you didn’t need. Keep the energy going at Rumu, a semi-secret bar hidden in what looks like an abandoned shopping mall from the 1980s. There’s a mirrored hallway, a bouncer who only takes cash at the door (credit cards are OK inside), and usually a 20-minute wait. Inside is pulsing with electronic beats, and a tightly packed with people sweating on the dancefloor and looking up to the multiple holes in the ceiling. Grab a sake cocktail, find your corner, and let the night unfold until 4am, when they close." - Rita Geraldes
