When to go to Livraria Lello?

Hi - just wondering if there is a time of day that one recommends going to visit Livraria Lello - I've heard the lines can be lengthy...thanks:)

We visited Livraria Lello in 2016. We went in the early am and it was not crowded. Perhaps someone else has been there more recently?
Fun place to visit!

Hi! After 18:00, all north tourists want to have dinner. They arrive at some restaurants at 5:30 asking for codfish! So, in my opinion, betweem 18:30 - 19:00 it's a very good time to visit. Of course italians and spanish will be there at the queue, but they are a lot less than the others waitting the bookshop opening at 8 or 9 am...
