'. But we walked on without knowing. A few hours later, walking back to the hotel, we went by where the line was ending and saw/smelled the most amazing croissant bakery. I said, 'We gotta go stand in this line right now!' Hubby, tired, had to find a washroom. So I stood in line, got this huge, hot, crunchy, amazing strawberry jam filled delight and spied him coming back down the street. For a second, I considered zipping out of there to stuff my face with it so I wouldn't have to share. But he saw me - too late. Pro tip:. Everyone get their own croissant or there's bound to be trouble here.

Came by just before 11 on a Monday and beat the line. It does seem to go pretty quick though…read more There's table seating outdoors but they were all occupied so we ate quickly at the counters watching the workers make the tarts. 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!

Such a cute and authentic find up a few steps from the main street near the beach. Barely speaking…read moreEnglish, our server was a friendly young man who tried very hard at communicating and was super pleasant and fun. I ordered razor clams, which I've never had before. They were seasoned so well... olive oil, salt and pepper, and loads of garlic. One of my favorite meals on my Portuguese vacation. I feel proud to support a small local business that clearly serves quality fresh local food.

After a day at the beach we ventured into the small town near Lagoa for dinner. We both ordered…read morevegetable soup to start a staple to a Portuguese meal and throughly enjoyed it. The broth with the mixture of veggies and roots was amazing. I had lamb chops and fries for my entree and the lamb was so tender and juicy I loved every bite. The sea bass and rice were also divine. The fish in Portugal is always so fresh and the citrusy seasoning was delicious. I would definitely recommend stopping in for a lunch or dinner if you're spending a day near the boardwalk or beach.

Dirty chai - tasted like milk with a splash of coffee. Also had no chai flavor at all. Maybe they don't know how to make chai because no one really orders it? Paris - using sourdough for French Toast was interesting. It definitely made it less sweet. It also comes with a side of fruit. If you're looking for breakfast/brunch spot, you can skip this place.

We stopped by here after Alfama for a latte and washroom break before heading off to Baixa…read more The interior of the cafe is a large open space with couches, high tables, and tables for you to choose - perfect for lounging/brunch crowds. There are books that lined the sides of the cafe. The latte is quite a large size (16oz) for EUR2.70. A little high on the cost but it is creamy, foamy and quite nice. We noticed fellow patron's meals are large in portions. Service is decent. The staff were attentive and made sure we were helped. Overall, not a bad place to be if you want a drink, chill, or have brunch.
