Oh, this is it! Early Sunday morning folks buy malassadas by the dozen in big brown paper bags:…read moresugar or sugar & cinnamon. Except for Hawaii, where malassadas (fried dough) are covered with fresh tropical fruit, Goularts is the best I've ever had. And this is a town where folks are loyal to bakeries that have been making them for families for decades. Customers also pick up some 'pops' or 'papo secos' a dry roll for sandwiches or with dinner, and maybe say a few words in Portuguese. But I also came for nata, the egg custard tarts beloved in Brazil, Macau, Jakarta, and Goa, known as pastel de nata. And they did not disappoint, having both the traditional natas with flaky pastry & brûlée tops and at least half a dozen other types including Nutella, caramel, chocolate, passion fruit and more. Heaven! Service was quick and helpful. The ambiance is cute corner bakery catering to parents who bring home breakfast treats for their kids and family. And there's plenty of parking across the street next to the pretty park, which could be a great place to enjoy a fresh baked treat. Enjoy!

It's probably the best small bakery that I've been to in years. Even though it was a little later in the afternoon, there was still a great selection of breads and meals in the freezer. We picked up a chicken pot pie and had it for dinner. Delicious. Very tasty and the price at $11 or so was great for what we got! I also tried a cupcake and it was so good. Very moist and the frosting was to die for. I believe Gail was the one working in the store and she was so friendly. She took the time to give us directions to the downtown and other places around town. I'm going to make it a point to stop back at Gail's Goodies the next time I'm on the Cape even if it's out of my way! I saw way too many things I want to try and I need to pick up another chicken pot pie!

The Painkiller is fantastic, especially if you add caramel. The Epic Vanilla Skooma is dangerously addictive - the flavor profile is incredible, and honestly nobody else in the area comes close. The Buzz is another excellent choice. The food is just as impressive. Their linguica and cheese rolls are leagues above the competition, and I'd put them alongside the very best around. I highly recommend ordering a regular cheese roll leveled up with egg, bacon, and their house-made hot sauce. If you enjoy a Portuguese style hot sauce, this combination is absolutely worth trying - you will not be disappointed. The peanut butter cookie is unreal; I genuinely wish I had the recipe. The baked goods are consistently excellent, and whenever they have a special, just order it. I've rarely been disappointed by anything they've made. I used to live nearby and honestly miss having this place around. Their pizzas deserve recognition too. They're some of my favorite bar style pizzas in the area. If you prefer an ultra thin pizza, you might lean toward Dipper Cafe, but it's hard to beat The Meatball Thing, the Thanksgiving pizza during the holidays, and many of their other specialty pies. The atmosphere adds even more to the experience. They have arcade style games you can play while you wait, and the music is always great. If you're into King Diamond or heavier music, you'll probably hear something you love. If you live nearby or are just passing through the area, don't skip The Nook. For me - and for everyone I've recommended it to - The Nook easily earns the title of best coffee shop in the area.

-ONE PARAGRAPH REVIEW-…read more The Nook has great coffee. The Nook has great food- not entrés but café stuff: sandwich rolls, focaccias, muffins, etc. The Nook has old school, retro vibes. It has rock music vibes. It has creative, inspirational vibes. It has quiet, read-a-book-in-the-nook vibes but also loud Donkey Kong-guitar riff-crunchin' vibes; depending on the time and the day. It's perhaps a tad too small inside, but that's what makes it a nook. Lots of hot and iced coffee options, food is quality over quantity: get their signature cheese or linguica roll as-is or "leveled up" to make it an egg sandwich because it's the best around. And their focaccias are made like a pizza and imo are better than their actual pizza! Ok that's a paragraph!
