It was 1.50 euro for a pastel de nata and it paired beautifully with a meia de leite (flat white). The pastel de nata was more custardy and the crust wasn't as flaky as I imagined, but I really enjoyed it!

I thought that was for sure it until I discovered them in Porto as well. These guys primarily sell one thing, and it's the same everywhere. Clearly they like their formula. Obviously, I had the pasteis de nata. Curiously, at this location specifically, they refuse to sell a single one and instead sell in groups of two. This one was not my favorite. The pastry shell does have a good crispness and flakiness to it, but the problem is the inside is just way too sweet. The custard is just sickly sweet - such that it simply doesn't work with the egg flavor. It seems to be a problem unique to this chain, as I haven't noticed this sweetness anywhere else. Overall, I would look elsewhere for pastel de nata. 5/10

I "ubered" out to Belem from my hotel. There was a small line up but it moved quickly. Cute and quaint place in blue and white. We walked across the street to a park to enjoy them. The pastry was so flaky that it flaked off very easily. The pigeons were aware of this and stood guard for any fallen morsels. The custard was so smooth and creamy and you could see the heat bubbles! I may have to go back for more!

A Lisbon Must-Do for Pastéis, Coffee & a Little Old-World Charm…read more First trip to Lisbon = Pastéis de Belém had to be on the itinerary! I had read up on the famous bakery before our visit and knew that arriving early was key. So we did -- and I'm very glad we did because this place gets busy FAST! There was a little confusion at first about which entrance to use and where to line up for a table, especially with people coming through different doors. Thankfully, we only waited about 5-10 minutes, which really wasn't bad at all. We weren't lucky enough to be seated in the beautiful old section of the café, but we did get to wander through it -- and wow! The historic rooms are incredibly charming, with gorgeous old-world details that make the whole experience feel like a little step back in time. We were seated instead in the much larger, newer dining hall. Our waiter was friendly, although definitely a little stern-ish, and after scanning the QR menu, we took a few minutes to decide what we wanted. Our waitress came by, took our order and quickly disappeared into the sea of tables. And honestly, I get it -- this place was HUSTLING! Of course, we ordered the famous Pastéis de Belém because... well, when in Lisbon! We also added a Torte de Chocolate because apparently one pastry each wasn't going to cut it, plus a couple of lattes. I actually loved that the menu included photos -- sometimes you just need to see the pastry before committing! Our order arrived surprisingly quickly, and the pastéis were delicious. The pastry was flaky, the custard was creamy and they absolutely hit the spot. I had expected them to arrive warm, though, and ours weren't, so I'm not sure how fresh from the oven they were. Still delicious nonetheless. The lattes were hot, tasty and served in pretty little glasses -- always a nice touch. One thing I did notice was that the tables, chairs and menus could have used a little more attention in the cleanliness department. That said, considering the sheer volume of people moving through this place every day, it's easy to understand how quickly things can get a little messy. Before leaving, we took another stroll through the historic portion of the bakery and café, which was definitely worth a look. There's so much character and history tucked into those rooms. And by the time we walked out? The line was already stretching outside! If sitting down isn't your thing, there's also a quick-order counter where you can grab your pastéis and keep exploring Lisbon. So, would I stop here again? Absolutely. Is it a leisurely, quiet café experience? Definitely not. It's busy, bustling and very much a Lisbon institution. But experiencing the history, seeing the beautiful old bakery, sipping a latte and eating one of these iconic Portuguese pastries is part of the fun. Put it on your Lisbon itinerary -- just go early, embrace the crowds, and save room for pastries!

I thought after Pasteis de Belem I wasn't going to get a pastel de nata that good again, but that's…read moreuntil I came here. The one from here was absolutely amazing. The layers of pastry on the outside were super thick - the most amount of layers I've seen on the double-digit ones that I've eaten. This makes the crunch earth-shattering, but still so easy to bite through. The pastry layers cascade down into the center, creating ripples of individual crunches along the way that is so immensely satisfying to consume. But what's truly spectacular is the inside. Upon the first bite, the custardy center oozes out like molten lava. You better make sure you have a plate under this, because the bright yellow goo is as addicting to taste as it is dangerous to your hands or clothing. The flavor is simply perfect - just the right amount of sweetness, citrus, and egginess. It's honestly unbelievable how good and irresistible this is. Comparing it to Pasteis de Belem, I think I would actually put this slightly over. The extra layers and the more liquidy center just do it for me. That's an iconic place, but comparing simply on what I liked better, I think this takes the cake (or tart). Overall, pretty close to the best baked good I've ever had. 9.75/10

So this is a delayed review--going thru my drafts and trying to write the ones I missed a while…read moreback! Came in April 2022 for a light morning snack based on seeing good reviews. Based on the items I ordered, everything was just passable. Maybe I'm not really appreciating the difference in textures between similar pastries in different countries, but even compared to several other bakeries and cafes in Lisbon, this was my least favorite. (Overall outside of pasteis de nata, I found pastries and baked goods in Portugal to be a bit drier, breadier, and sweeter than some other countries.) The chocolate croissant I ordered used melted chocolate sprinkles on top and inside, and the bread was laminated on the outside but kinda dense and dry on the inside, no airy pockets, just bready. The palmier tasted a bit stale, like when a crispy cookie has been sitting out and softened. The croquettes were average. The espresso was pretty normal. I sat outside since it was a nice day, they had a number of tables and patrons dining outside. They seemed to be understaffed bc it took a while for the server to come out and take my order, though the food came pretty quickly once ordered. Inside it's a very old-school feel, very ornate with many mirrors and liquor shelves along the wall. Not sure about prices now though will say in 2022 they were very reasonable.

We stopped by this location near the Jerónimos Monastery and had a really lovely breakfast overall!…read moreThe Cured Salmon Benedict was the absolute star of the show. The eggs were poached absolutely perfectly, and the runny yolk soaked into the beautifully light brioche bun. The flavor profile was excellent; the dollop of herbed cream cheese paired incredibly well with the fresh spinach and the punch of the pickled red onion. My only tiny personal critique is that I wished the salmon itself was just a bit saltier, leaning closer to a traditional lox, but it was still incredibly flavorful and satisfying. For drinks, it was a bit of a mixed experience. I ordered the Iced Pistachio Latte, which unfortunately left me a little underwhelmed. It wasn't a bad drink by any means, but the pistachio flavor just wasn't very prominent. On the plus side, my friend ordered the Iced Tiramisu Latte, and hers was absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. Overall, it's a great spot with high-quality food and a fantastic location.
