Guest Shift with Mário Marques from Who's Wine

We're shaking things up at Good Company Bookstore - literally! Join us as we celebrate the launch of our brand-new cocktail menu with a night of good drinks, great music, and even better company.

Come sip, browse, and dance, as we'll have special live DJ performances from <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bebitprod/" target="_blank">BeBit</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/seen_ashore/" target="_blank">Seen Ashore</a> to set the vibe as our bartenders serve up your new favourite cocktails.

This night also marks the start of our end-of-summer cocktail series - we’ll be serving cocktails every weekend through September, the perfect way to wind down after warm days and long evenings.

Whether you're here to pick up a new novel, unwind with a drink in hand, or try out our fresh Aperol spritz (or all three!) - this is your invitation to experience Good Company Bookstore, with a twist.

<b>More about our DJs for the evening</b>

For the past year, Lisbon-based DJs <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bebitprod/" target="_blank">BeBit</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/seen_ashore/" target="_blank">Seen Ashore</a> have been playing side by side, blending a colourful spectrum of electronic music - from house and funky groove to deeper shades of techno.
