Central Pastelaria is a bakery-cafe on Rua Esperança, just across the street from the Igreja de…read moreNossa Senjorha do Carmo, one of the local churches in town. You'll also notice the familiar red & white Olá umbrellas in the small plaza; the kiosk there also serves food from the pastelaria. They also serve gelato, and they're open until midnight on some nights. You can also order tap beers and liquors at the kiosk, including several types of the locally-known Aguardente, a distilled spirit made from ?old? wine. I almost died getting half a glass down, but I'm sure it's a personal taste thing. We came here a couple times and although it wasn't our favorite pastelaria or hangout spot, we enjoyed a late evening refreshment at the outdoor tables in the plaza. It's highly recommended by locals so you may find it more remarkable than we did in summer 2017.
