Kapital

Frommer's Review

Next to the docks of the Tagus, this dance club and bar appeals to one of the widest socioeconomic ranges of Portuguese society. You're likely to find surprisingly elite patrons rubbing elbows with regular folks. Detractors claim that Kapital is for people with money or for rich wannabes; still, it can be a whole lot of fun, especially if you limit your visit to a single night so that the novelty doesn't wear off. On the animated dance floor on the ground level, the music is loud, sometimes experimental, danceable, and up-to-date. The second floor contains a central bar surrounded by rows of comfortable chairs and sofas; the third floor has another dance floor with predominantly 1980s dance music. The cover charge varies widely depending on whether the doorman thinks you're cool, well-dressed, or rich-looking enough. It's open Tuesday to Saturday 11pm until dawn; Tuesday night is least crowded.
