Armazém São Thiago is a historic neighbourhood bar in Santa Teresa, cherished for its century-old charm, simple tapas and chilled drinks. Founded in 1919, it began as a local grocery and transformed over the decades into a beloved “boteco”, keeping its wooden counters and vintage atmosphere. Today it’s famed for hearty snacks — like cod-fish fritters and traditional bar fare — and for being a meeting point for locals and visitors alike. Informal, friendly and full of character, Armazém São Thiago is a true slice of old-Rio life.
