Join us at Fable Bookshop Cafe for a creative way to spend a Sunday!
We'll have a curated assortment of local, handmade businesses in our pop-up market, ​​​​natural wine flowin', and as-always our selection of books in English and vinyl records.
Our kitchen will also be serving up delicious dishes, and our bar is stocked full of natural wines, craft beer, hard kombuchas and non-alcoholic options too, so arrive thirsty and hungry and come round off your weekend with us!

### Pop-Up Market With Handmade Businesses

We've created a delightful market with some local businesses that have been catching our attention lately.

### ​​​​Natural Wine Discounts

​​​We've selected some of our favorite natural wines from Portuguese producers and we're offering discounts on all of them (including bottles!). We've got all the hits on deck for you to try (rosé, pet nat, orange, white, etc!).
​​​We'll also have plenty of other alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and food, too. Come hungry and thirsty. :)

### ​​Curated Selection of Books in English

​​​What better way to enjoy this cozy weather than to grab a new book ? We've got a fresh batch of books at Fable that we think you'll love.

### ​​​Connect With Our Community!

​​​And hey, it's a party for a reason! We want to bring together our Fable friends because we've noticed that this community is creative, curious, and downright cool. So come hang out, say hi to someone new, and stay awhile. You'll fit right in.
​​​See you on Sunday!

What to expect from this workshop?
Join us for a friendly, two-hour poetry workshop for beginners, writers looking to improve their craft, and curious returners, including those who’ve never shared their works. We’ll explore what poetry is (and isn’t), what makes a poem resonate, and simple dos and don’ts to elevate your writing.
Expect accessible readings, practical craft tips, and guided prompts, with supportive space to draft and share. Bring your favourite tool(s) to take notes, two poems you love (ideally one of yours and one by another poet), and an open mind.

About your hosts:
Giacomo Boffi is a Lisbon-based poet and founder of Home of Poetry (HOP), a platform for international poetry. For him, poetry is far more than writing. His vision is to promote poetry as a tool for connection and belonging. Giacomo organises workshops, hosts events, and supports poets in their writing journey.
His work connects personal episodes to universal paths, exploring themes such as belonging and society, memory and time, the body and eros, faith and doubt. Blending lyric clarity with a documentarian gaze, his poems move between page and performance to seek meaning, mercy, and tenderness.
His work has appeared in Sunday Mornings at the River, Word Up Pages, and Only Poems, among others; he has read at Body Electric, LovingroomConcerts, Ten Art Club, Shoki, and other poetry events in Europe.

Kit Tamblyn is a Lisbon-based poet, teacher and writer, and a co-founder of Queer Poets Lisbon. His work centres on queer history, love and periods of transition, and about the importance of language and knowing your roots. He writes for both page and performance. In the past, Kit has run poetry workshops across the UK and has performed at the London Feminist Conference as well as at slams all over the country.
He was the winner of the English Heritage poetry prize, the Oxford Kafka creative writing prize and a Portico Young Laureate. He is currently working on his first novel.

Need a little nudge to write? Come join our weekly community writing hour at Fable.

Every Tuesday night, we gather in our cozy bookshop cafe for a quiet, focused hour of writing. Whether you're journaling, drafting a novel, penning a love letter, or working on your next blog post, you're welcome here.

We'll write quietly together from 7:30–8:30pm, with an optional sharing circle afterwards for anyone who’d like to read a snippet aloud or connect about their project.

It’s free to join, and no pressure to share. Just come as you are, bring whatever you're working on, and give your creative energy a place to bloom.

A few extras:

• Arrive anytime after 6:30pm for a bite to eat, a glass of natural wine, or to mingle before we begin.
• We kindly ask that all guests order something to help us keep this beloved event going. Your support means the world to us (and our small team).
