It's generally clean, service is fine, if not a bit spotty at time, and the food is good enough and comes quickly, though sometimes entire pages of the menu will be unavailable for whatever reason.

This was the third and final gelateria we visited... and it was pretty tasty.

The eggs that they call mexido are delicately scrambled with cream cheese and ohhhh so delicious. I had a cheese cake which was a good finish.

A welcoming and open space at Rua Padre João Manuel 968, capacity for around forty diners divided between indoor and outdoor seating including comfy chairs, it is immediately on entry that guests will notice cases filled with Cakes and Pastries, the menu spelling out choices from Santo Pão's kitchen adding to an already tough decision with everything from Soups and Sandwiches to housemade Pasta. Open from 08h00 until 22h00 Monday through Saturday, doors closing an hour earlier Sunday, it was after minutes of indecision that Cold Brew was selected to pair with savories, the former rare in Brazil but in this case excellent while both Brazilian Cheese Bread and crispy Tapioca folded around creamy Eggs and Herbs were also well made at a fair price. Slowly enjoying the Eggs while browsing complimentary WiFi, and never rushed by English-fluent staff despite a crowd, it was after enjoying a small Cookie provided with the Coffee that sweets were ordered, the "Croissant with Hazelnut Cream" in reality a masterpiece of lamination ladled with warm Nutella while Santo Pão's signature Banana Cake lived up to its billing with soft layers divided by housemade Dulce de Leche.

They offer my favorite hazelnut-crowned Baci chocolates, with unique love notes wrapped inside, in an assortment of packages in any size or shape in either dark or milk chocolate. The shop also sells other Perugina Italian chocolates including 70%, 75%, and 80% pure cacao which are intense and smooth. They have ice cream and Nespresso which you can add some Perugina chocolate which is more like a dessert than a traditional cappuccino. Perugina chocolate is delicious, velvety, and smooth. This boutique is a nice place to stop for chocolate connoisseurs who appreciate quality chocolate and may need an afternoon pick-me-up. The shop is not open on Sunday.

They sell lots of different flavors of chocolate truffles, chocolate bark and some Brazilian treats like pão de mel. This is a great spot for a little afternoon meetup of coffee and sweets or to buy some authentic Brazilian chocolates for visitors when you get burnt out on brigadeiros. As a plus the place is Kosher so you can give the goodies to anyone at the holidays. They also make chocolates in the shape of mini wedding cakes which could be a sweet treat to give to a newly engaged couple.
