The review was conducted by the Condé Nast Traveller, which has provided a guide to Europe's most delicious food corners.

For serious flavour hunters, going on a trip is a chance to seek out the next remember-it-forever supper. In Europe, farm-to-fork feasts are drawing a mellowed-out crowd while next-gen bakeries run by ex-Noma chefs are turning out trays of superior sticky cinnamon buns and buttery sourdough croissants. But foodie highlights can also be found in less expected places.

This is our pick of the best getaways and city breaks in Europe that will satisfy the eternally hungry traveller, plus the tables to book when you get there – including the Michelin-starred restaurants to plan your next trip around and the low-key bars where the food is every bit as delicious and there’s not a white tablecloth in sight.

Lisbon, Portugal

Best for: affordable restaurants

Lisbon has a lot going for it at the best of times – but right now, it's firmly on our radar after being named the cheapest European city break for 2023.

A three-course meal here costs an average of £39.01, according to recent research by The Post Office, while a 330ml bottle of beer in a traditional bar costs a measly £2.26 – cheaper than any other city in the top 10. These eateries aren't just wallet-friendly, either. 

Lisbon's best restaurants are firmly putting the Portuguese capital on the foodie map. Traditional food is best found at one of the city’s tascas – these are casual eateries serving very local dishes. But there are also modern restaurants worth checking out, too – Belcanto, for example, was the first restaurant in Lisbon to earn two Michelin stars.
