"Learning About Film History Founded in the early 1950s by European film archive pioneer Manoel Ribeiro, this museum's mission is to safeguard film heritage. In the Cupid Room is an exhibit of Magic Lanterns, an apparatus for projecting images onto glass painted in translucent colors. Also there are several collections of sound, lighting, video, decorative objects, and pre-cinema devices. Indie film festivals take place here too. In the bookshop you can find not only film books but also DVDs. And on the same floor, on a nice terrace, you'll find a restaurant."

The Cinemateca Portuguesa offers not only cinema and cinematic history but also a cinematography museum, a wonderful rooftop restaurant, and an exquisitely curated book and antique media shop.

Went to the restaurant here, good food and friendly service. Something went wrong with our booking for 11 but they accommodated us well regardless. Really interesting building, and loads of cool film projection memorabilia everywhere.

We've just had a lovely dining experience in the restaurant/bar upstairs. A hidden jem. Amazing friendly staff. A couple of the young gentlemen spoke very good English and made us feel welcome. We were looking for a menu that could accommodate gluten-free and found it here. The steak meals where just what we were after. One of us had the pork cheeks that just melted in your mouth.

Nice building, the museum exhibit is small but interesting. There's a very nice terrace with great lunch deals, the food was really nice.

This place is a gem! Highly recommend a visit to their cafe bar (with terrace). The staff are super helpful and the food is great. A lovely place to hang out. Apparently, they show films outside in the Summer. One of the most beautiful art cinemas I've been to. They've got a book shop and a quiet library. Lots of English language films. Using proper film rather than digital. I'll be back.

Great ambience, didn’t know what to expect of it. But the food was great! And the movie was so nostalgic (high quality).

Google Maps has incorrect info. There’s very little signposting here and what looks like the main entrance is not. I was redirected to a door that was locked so gave up as it was the third door I tried. Not sure how people are getting in / finding the bookshop or anything here. There were no other visitors when I was here so called it a day as it seemed it wasn’t actually a museum for tourists to visit/the general public.
