    Amazing food, service was amazing! We sat outside the cafe, watched the locals moving about, and waited for our meal...we really enjoyed every morsel.

    Nice looking cappucino...

    We like this spot for breakfast, we've been coming here every day for a days :) really nice juice, coffee, croissants and service. I now have had a flamenko cheese omelette which is really tasty. Croissants are really yummy too... Good spot :)

    The food was excellent and great price . The only regret that I didn't discover it a few days before I. Can't wait to visit again . Highly recommended .

    Where do I start?! This place is a MUST brunch in Lisbon!! We stumbled upon it as we were staying in the neighborhood, and arrived about 15 minutes before brunch started at 11am. The waiter let us know that brunch would be starting soon and was highly recommended. We decided to wait and were seated right away on their quaint patio outside. My husband and I shared the mini brick and the brick brunch. We were brought our coffees right away (very impressed they have soy milk & their latte art was on point!) We chose the juice of the day which was a ginger pineapple- refreshing. Then the food started to arrive. First a whole bread basket with butter, jams and "chocolate salami" (not real salami but some kind of chocolatey dessert that looks like marbles like salami and was delish!) Then our plates...OMG. So many types of fresh cheeses, meats, salad, eggs. The presentation is on point and this breakfast was SO filling, delicious, a really exceptional value, and quite the experience. The staff was so friendly and courteous- they all work together and you can tell they enjoy it. Would recommend this place to ANYone visiting Lisbon!

    Walked 16 minutes from my place.. Got my exercise out of the way.  High impact walking up and down.  Ouchy...

    I loved my breakfast! Their quiches are heavenly made with some heavenly made cheeses and spinach inside the Phyllo dough, omg... The other quiche is the shredded pork with carrots, no cheese, melted in my mouth like fine chocolates. I'm not surprised by my reactions since Yelp guided me here with 5 big loud red stars. Hub and i walked to here from our place and it is totally worth every hill I climbed. Our server is taken aback I think because we eat like true Americans and seemed a little bothered by our orders of 2 quiches, 2 orders of omelettes with veggies, bacon and chevre, 2 lattes, 2 americanos and bottled water. Not saying anything vocally but I get his facial expressions. Nice gentleman though... He's quick with our requests and very polite. Impressive I say. I think he's shy, honestly. Anyway, I know I'll be walking tons more in the future and will burn every bit I took. This place is a superstar on Yelp you guys. Nuff said! Happy face...

    Great value on a Sunday brunch. We ordered a "Mini Brick" and a "Brick", which seemed to be the only things on the menu on Sunday late morning. The mini version was just smaller portions and a few more items. It was plenty. There was an abundance of cheeses and the meal included coffee (or other hot drink) and juice (or another cold drink). The chips was delicious and the price for the mini was only €6.8. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

    The "brick" breakfast, so good!

    The menu was perfect for me - simple with only 2 options. The food was delicious! High quality products. I opted for the "brick" breakfast.. make sure you come hungry because it's a lot of food! Amazing value and find.

    Omelette was exceptional with goat cheese. One of the few places where you can actually get real latte.

    Excellent place for brunch. Everything was delicious and very fulfilling.

    Nice place to have a Sunday brunch! It's always full and unfortunately they have a no reservation policy. So remember to go early! :) It stops serving breakfast at 3 pm so that's a pity. Nevertheless they also have other nice dishes that are always changing. I tried the chicken risotto and it was quite good too.

    Perfect latte

    Great cafe with great food. I came here 3 times during my stay in Lisboa. One of the few places that offers different types of milk.

I stumbled upon…read morePica Pau while meandering back to my hotel after realizing that the restaurant I was originally planning to eat lunch at was closed on Thursdays. It was getting a wee bit late for lunch (~1:30 PM), and I was quite hungry, so when I passed by Pica Pau and saw how packed it was, I knew I had to drop by to give it a try. It's absolutely bustling inside; there are several tables inside and outside, and you can generally just seat yourself as long as there's an open slot. There are very few tourists here -- another great sign -- so the menus will all be in Portuguese, and it will be hit or miss as to whether your server can translate for you. However, the menu is pretty simple, so it's easy enough to intuit what they say (or to just use Google Translate) -- the menu is spread across three blackboards, one for daily specials, another for seafood, and the last for other meat dishes. Everything is just twelve euros for lunch, and it also comes with a drink and bread. You genuinely can't go wrong with anything on their menu. My mom and I both ordered from their seafood menu, and the fish is super fresh and grilled to perfection. It has a perfect char on the outside, and is super flaky and tender on the inside; they add a hit of salt and a side of lemon, but the fish honestly doesn't need much else. The fish also comes with a side of boiled veggies and potatoes, which are a great, neutral accompaniment to the fish. I ordered the swordfish, and my mom got the sea bass, but we ended up splitting both of the dishes between us (especially since they both conveniently came with two pieces). Both were phenomenal, but I did enjoy the swordfish a tiny bit more; it was a bit more tender, and they also descaled the swordfish but did not for the seabass, so it was a slightly easier eating experience.

    I have absolutely nothing negative about this restaurant. It is one of the best places I have ever…read morehad the pleasure of having a meal. Our waitress was amazing! She reccomended what and how many plates we should share, paired it with a great bottle of wine, and never let our glasses go empty. We sampled a total of 7 dishes between 4 of us and ate it family style. I can not recommend this amazing local establishment enough. Even if it means rearranging your day or trip to fit in a reservation, you will not be sorry! This will be my new staple on any trip to Lisboa

What makes it special is watching the pastries being handmade right in front of you, which adds a level of freshness and craftsmanship that you can actually taste. The service was super fast and friendly. The pastel de nata came out perfectly, with that delicate flaky crust and warm custard that just hits differently when you know it was made moments ago. The espresso was equally impressive, rich and smooth, and the two together make for a simple but near perfect combination. If you are in the area, this is an easy and very satisfying stop.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The crust was super flaky and the tart was nice and warm out of the oven, but I didn't like the flavor of the custard. I did forget to add cinnamon to the top, but I don't think it would have helped me personally. The woman who stood next to me at the counter had a nearly orgasmic experience next to me, so it's obvious that my taste buds are apparently off. I loved the patience of the server, who got confused when I told her I wanted to eat in but wanted to take water to go. Note to self...Portuguese folks want to have their "to go" as "takeaway." What I also didn't know was that there was no place to sit!! I scooted down the counter just like all the other folks to watch the bakers prep the next gozillion pastries for the day. That was interesting. Then, I didn't know how to bus my dishes. I just left them on the counter like all the other folks and went away. I wouldn't skip going because of my personal taste buds, though. Enjoy it for yourself and let me know if you have a different opinion than I did!
