01 · In a sentence

Arriba in Cascais, open JulyDecember.

Arriba stands apart as Cascais's only waterfront restaurant venue offering direct ocean views without the sterility of typical resort ballrooms.

Housed in Edifício Arriba on Estrada Guincho, this working restaurant transforms into an intimate wedding space that serves your guests restaurant-quality cuisine rather than catering platters.

The venue's 4.5-star Google rating reflects its reputation for delivering both exceptional food and authentic Portuguese coastal hospitality.

Amazing venue with incredible views! Wish the AC was stronger. But unless you are in a heatwave you won’t mind.
