Espiga presents itself as a cultural space inserted in the Bombarda Shopping Center. This is a place where anything can happen: dance, travel presentations, weddings and festivals.
Espiga, which means “Space of Imagination, Taste and Arts”, is a constantly changing space that is intended to be dynamic, cultural and with good snacks. The creation of Espiga was a result of a collective team brainstorming, that eventually ended up with the creation of this unique store.
Espiga has a gallery, a travel bookstore and, over time and due to its expansion needs, opened a store – Bazar do Espiga.

After inheriting her father-in-law’s business, Tabacaria Aviz’s current manager, Maria José Viriato, took advantage of her experience and decided to implement some changes. It started by offering other types of articles and products, besides the usual publications, and extended its opening hours. At this time, in addition to its normal opening hours during the week, it is also open from 10 pm to 4 am on weekends. This differentiating time opened the tobacconist to a new audience. In addition to a place where people will buy their newspapers and magazines and tobacco, they have started to serve another type of audience that uses the tobacco shop almost as a convenience store.
