Great little spot to chill out in. I had hot roast chicken ciabatta with a Sagres beer followed by a espresso and pastel del nata. The food quality was great along with the authentic potugese atmosphere inside. I will definatley be returning.

A plate of happiness in every visit. Chilled little cafe that sells excellent fruit and vegetables, great coffee and can even get a glass of wine but I like the breakfasts and a tea :)

This little fruit and veg shop that also serves lunch and coffee is my daily highlight of the day. The owner Tino is incredibly friendly and the rest of the staff is nice too. I love going there every morning for my daily cappuccino and pastry. They cook nice take away food and they sell a large variety of fruits and vegetables, without plastic packaging!! You can also find nice chocolate boxes if you need to buy a preset or for yourself.

Very cosy small cafe, coffee is good and there’s a decent breakfast and lunch menu with fair prices. Full English is good and so is the steak and egg sandwiches, also enjoyed a portuguese bitoque cooked as it would be at home Good portion sizes and nice portuguese bolos de arroz and donuts filled with Nutella! Service is good
