    melhor pizza e café We had chicken pizza , a margarita pizza. One of the best 2 pizza. The dough was super soft and cheese was excellent. Don't miss

    Eggs Benedict, Nutella & strawberry waffle, and Nutella Cappuccino.

    Came here for brunch. Very nice ambiance. Wifi says it's free, but you need wifi or cell service in order to get a code to sign up for it, so not really helpful. I had the Eggs Benedict, which comes on top of a sourdough bread slice. My son had a waffle with Nutella and strawberries. Both were very delicious. I also had a Nutella cappuccino, which came with a layer of Nutella on the inside and overflowing across the top of the cup. My son loved licking all of the Nutella off the cup. Would definitely recommend trying it out if you're in Rio.

    Something like an American Deli transported to Copacabana, The Bakers serves a comprehensive menu of Soups, Salads and Sandwiches in addition to Sweets and Breads, though prices trend a bit higher than other similar shops nearby. Established in 1994 by Europeans, and still operated independently by the same family across four location including Centro and Ipanema, it is form 09h00 daily that guests will find The Bakers ready for service, entry to Rua Santa Clara 86 finding air full of the smell of Yeast as options span across cases and counters to the right. Offering a full menu in addition to globally inspired confections, the sizable seating area carefully watched over by a middle-aged man who otherwise busied himself with arranging shelves of packaged goods, it was after perusing options that a six-piece order was requested, Corn Cake in the local style of Pudding undeniably the best tasted in Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo while a round of Manioc and Coconut was also delicious and plenty moist. Less impressed by Pastel de Nata, doughy Crust and overcooked Custard both a far cry from Brazil's Portuguese bakeries, The Bakers' packaged Dulce de Leche Biscuit was enjoyable albeit less-so than the Milhojas while a Croissant overstuffed with Nutella was rich but unexceptional thanks to a lack of proofing that results in compromised lamination.

    This was an adorable little find in the middle of Rio. The place was not a far walk from Copacabana Beach and suited a very nice interior. The pastries were incredible and the food/drinks were very nice. I got the Caprese Waffle as I had never seen anything like it! While a little dry, the taste was very savory and definitely worth a try. The inside was very quiet and a nice break for my group from the busy streets of Rio. Service was very nice as well!

    Stopped here for a quick espresso and pastry before heading to the World Cup Fan Fest. Walking in you can see that it appears to cater to the tourists a bit, but that certainly doesn't change the quality of service and food. You will be quickly approached by a waitress that will take your order and ask you to take a seat. Be sure though before placing your order to take your time and look at the three cases of pastries and desserts because making a choice is going to be tough. I went for a pastry that had fresh bananas in it and a few even on top. Super delish! This place is definitely worth a stop when in Rio. The service was quick and very pleasant. Many of the employees do also speak English, which is very helpful as well. The only thing I would do differently next time is get something to go!

    This place is cute and located a few blocks from cops cabana beach. They sell panettone (Italian brioche) and breakfast/lunch. Our waitress was just the best, she offered to relocate us because we were near the A/C and getting frozen by the minute. We ordered the salmon/cheese sandwich and a quiche lorraine, both quite tasty. I would recommend to try eat to get a good breakfast.

    Breakfast/Brunch place that I use to go to (moved away from that area and have not been back recently). A large variety of cakes and pastries and good breakfast sets. Coffee is OK. I do like their croissant :) They do sell biscuits / cookies there too and the one I tried (love letters half coated in chocolate) is good! Had their ham and cheese waffles one and it was good, a wee bit too much cheese but I'm not complaining!

    Excellent place for delicious cakes and coffee. My wife has a sweet tooth and she can't help going there.

    Boni's Gourmet - Bread with coffee inside counter

    We absolutely love this place. The night of our Arrival Day we decided to take a walk to explore…read morethe area and to look for places where we would be able to have breakfast or lunch and other meals. We stumbled upon Bonisand there were so many different options to choose from. They have everything from different types of breads natural juices, roasted chicken, sandwiches, cold cut, and all types of baked goods. That same evening I needed something to eat and they had some type of bread with the cheese inside it was sort of like a stromboli looking thing to give you an idea of what it look like. I got that with a small roasted chicken and my friend orderd a coffee. The chicken was flavorful, well-cooked and just the right amount to share between us the cheese bread, although they heated it in the microwave it wasn't bad at all. The next day we went back for breakfast and they didn't have the same bread that they had the day before however, the girls helped us pick another type of bread with cheese that would be similar to the one that I had the day before. The coffee at this place is also spectacular. Something about the coffee, I guess it's the way they grind the beans for each cup makes the taste so amazing. We wound up going back to this place every morning for breakfast we pretty much had the same thing bread with cheese and coffee. On our last morning I decided to have a mango juice and they don't sell a small but it's just one size I got it anyway. It was really good, fresh and delicious. The service here was just amazing all of the girls were so helpful even though we didn't speak the language and they didn't speak English or Spanish we were able to communicate because they were so helpful. We used a lot of gestures and a lot of pointing at things that we wanted and it was funny and they never seem to get frustrated with us which was great. There was so many good baked options that looked delicious and one day we asked if we could sample a coconut looking dessert and right away they said no problem and gave us a piece to try. They even wanted to give us more than what we were asking for but we declined because we only wanted a taste. By the time we were Rio we felt like this was our local cafe in our neighborhood. We said bye to all the girls. We also made sure we tipped well every time we went. Oh and btw, they have tables where you can sit outside. It was always crowded every time we went.
