Writing this in Mcdonalds Lagos and prejudicing my health.
Although Mcdonalds do not advertise it on the shop floor, they do have free wifi access at present in most Portuguese Mcdonalds. I spoke to the manager and here are the details.
You fire up your machine and open your web browser.

http://www.ptwifi.pt

username: mcdonalds@ptwifi.pt
password: mcdonalds
