Lisbon "Non Touristy" recs

Going to Lisbon a couple weeks and would here and there enjoy some things that are non touristy, i.e something a tourist never really goes to, but you stumbled upon on your trip or when you lived there. Ideally Tram/Metro accessible (Things like neighborhoods where expats, or middle class, or super rich live, supermarkets, target equivalents, parks not in touristy areas, public transit/ferrries, libraries etc)

Our family will be spending three nights in Lisbon in July. We're traveling with kids (10 & 12), so our plan is for a mostly low-key trip filled with lazily exploring the city. But we're also looking for other unique or special experiences we could do as a family that would really make our trip special. [more inside]

Lisbon hotel recommendations

We are staying in Lisbon for two nights in mid-November, travelling with three other couples who prefer boutique-type hotels and our budget is up to 150 euros per night. We've looked at neighbourhoods of Chaido and Baixa, so as to have restaurants and some sites within walking distance but would appreciate your hotel or area recommendations. Thanks!
