Lots of locals here, and a generally decent vibe. I didn't get to try much of the pastries but the ones I did were great.

Compared to other cafeterias/diners, these folks have a fairly large space, so there should always be room. Bathrooms: Didn't try them, but I'm sure they have them.

Their Portuguese croissants are very popular and I've seen them create batch after batch. I visited and had to try one of their croissants. I also ordered a puff pastry cone filled with a lemon filling. The croissant was soft with a sticky glaze on top.

It's covered in confectioner's sugar and filled with a creamy, lemon filling that was quite refreshing. I was blown away by the price. It was only €0.75 for each pastry. For that price, I'll have 10!
