One of the best places in Lisbon for pastel de nata! Pastel de nata is a classic in Portugal culture! It is a cream filled pastry that is incomparable to other things. Out of all the places I tried in Lisbon, this chain had the best ones by far! The service is extremely quick, but it's a little hard to eat at the physical locations. Warning! It costs a bit extra to take coffee or such to-go so be wary of that! read more

First time trying natas! Love how you can see the process of making them! They were so custardy and gooey - and enjoyed the powdered sugar and cinnamon that you can top them off with yourself. Very good dessert!! Service was quick - small space so more of a grab and go situation! read more

ok the pasteles de nata are AMAZING. The inside was sooo creamy and melted in my mouth and I loved adding in the powdered sugar and cinnamon on top. I loved the crust as well and now it flaked away while eating the pastry. The service was fast and the staff was nice! read more

Doesn't look like much when passing by, but it is in great location. You can't come to Lisbon without trying this pasty. I personally don't think that the cinnamon that is provided is needed. The custard is fluffy and delightful and the flaky outside is greatness. I only can eat two at a time because they are so full of flavor but you don't want to skip this. read more

Yes - the reviews are all true. This is some of the very best pastel de nata you'll have. The place couldn't be any more straight forward than it is: 1. Walk in 2. Order at the register 3. Stay for the quick bite OR take 'em to go. The cafe is narrow, with a long ledge, facing the kitchen/prep station. There are no seats, rather the intent is for you to take a few minutes and enjoy an espresso with your pastel de nata - not to linger. The cool thing is, just on the opposite side of the glass from where the ledge is, you can see the bakers preparing and turning out hundreds of pastel de nata while you enjoy yours. You can also take them to go - across the street is the square which is great for people watching - a fine, outdoor sport. Plain and simple, the pastry was amazing. Everything about it was perfection; texture, flavor etc. Add an espresso into the mix and you're absolutely golden. read more

Not bad, but not my favorite. Luke warm, with a somewhat crispy pastry shell. A bit too heavy handed on the cinnamon within the custard itself in my opinion. read more

You take one bite and have to pause... it's warm, flaky but slightly crispy on the outside and then the filling with some cinnamon & sugar sprinkled on top, incredible! You can stand by the counter to eat & watch them make the pastel de natas. We didn't have to wait! read more

Fairly good pasteis de nata and probably the best ones you can get outside of Belem. The pastry was nice and flaky, the filling was balanced and sweet, and the pastel de nata was served warm. They're especially good covered in cinnamon. They were my third favorite pastel de nata we had in Portugal, but I would still happily come back and eat more of these. This location only has a small counter where you can eat your pastry standing up, and it's kind of annoying having to squeeze around people to find a spot at the counter, which is why they don't get a full 5 stars. Overall, a solid spot to try pasteis de nata in Portugal. read more

We didn't visit the store that supposedly invented the pastry (Pastéis de Nata) in Belem, but this chain of stores is truly unique and offers a superior product than any other places that we got egg tarts from. You've got to try it once when you visit Lisbon or Porto (or any other city where Manteigaria has a store). Who knows, you may develop a desire to have the pastry every day if you try it once! read more

One of the bests in town, worth every dollar. It is a place you just grab them and go. Well packaged to go that ensures they do not move around too much or get broken. Very creamy and is best value for money in the city read more

Highly recommend stopping in for a taste of Portugal. These were the best Pastéis de Nata we had during our time in Lisboa. Hot from the oven, be sure to top it off with generous amounts of cinnamon to balance out some of that sugar. This custard tart is on the sweeter side, is more runny than the Hong Kong style tart but makes a great snack and pairs well with a shot of espresso. At 1.20 EUR each, they were kind of a no brainer. read more

In a recent trip to Lisbon, we made it our mission to find the best pastel de nata. We tried this delicacy in a myriad of locations and reached a unanimous conclusion - Manteigaria comes out on top. They are served warm, and the center is amazingly soft yet not too sweet. They are crunchy but not excessively firm or too chewy. Just perfect! And Manteigaria has multiple outlets throughout the city, in addition to Porto and Paris as well. These are some of the other "pastel de nata" spots we tried: Pastéis de Belém, Pastelaria Alcôa, Castro, Alfama Doce, Confeitaria Nacional, Fábrica da Nata, Fim de Século, among others. In their own way they were all quite good, but Manteigaria was our absolute favorite. read more

Got recommendations from local Portuguesas to come here instead of the other touristy place. Never disappointed. The tart is so creamy and not cutting throat sweet.

MY OH MY, MANTEIGARIA TAKES THE CAKE FOR THE BEST PASTEL DE NATA! Even if the original ones are at Pasteis De Belem, whatever Manteigaria is doing is even better! These are truly the best pastel de nata (Portuguese custard tarts) you will ever have --hands down. The custard filling is so velvety, creamy, and gooey while the pastry tart was flaky and crispy. This is how they should all taste, wow. Even though I was stuffed from dinner, I couldn't help devouring a couple of these. The shop is small and only makes one pastry, which is all you ever need in life. You know a place does something the best when that is the only item they sell. Even if you see a line, don't be intimidated as it goes by quickly. Each pastel de nata is €1.10, which is usually sold by one, two, or six packs. I love that if you get it as takeaway, they pack it into these cute tubular boxes. This also made for a great gift, which I bought a dozen back as souvenirs. Tip: Consume same day (of course), but if you plan to preserve them overnight, put it in the fridge or else the pastry becomes soggy. read more

It may not be the original, but it is a DANG good pastel de nata. Although you are paying a premium for their pastries, they come out fresh and beautiful -- they definitely do taste better warm. As with other places, you can get a 6-pack to go if you want to impress your friends back home. The pastry itself is incredibly flaky on the outside, with the inside being the right balance of sweet and medium-heavy without feeling like you're being too indulgent. I must have come 5 times in a 2 week visit. read more

** late review post - experience was Nov 2018** I came. I saw. I tasted. I can say it was packed with a nice little line out the door and service was very quick. For me, it was okay...I can't say I loved it...definitely not enough to justify the 15-20 min walk from my hotel to find this particular place to try it. We passed by several pastry shops to find this one and the desserts all look the same. Our hotel provided this dessert to us as a welcome gift. They pretty much tasted the same as the ones from this shop. The pastries themselves are a good treat. If you are staying nearby will be passing by anyway, I say definitely try it at least once. read more

The pastéis de nata here are absolutely fantastic - crisp, creamy, and fresh out of the oven. You can really taste the difference! A must-try when in Lisbon! We loved it as much as we loved the Pasteis de Belem. read more

Manteigaria serves some of the best pastel de nata that I've had in Portugal! It is the only thing they make and so, as I walked in, I was taken aback by the smell of sweet custard. They make it all by hand and in shop so you can watch them as they pump out these delicious treats. When there's only one item that they specialize in and sell, you know it's good. A bonus is that they open until midnight for a tasty snack at night! They ring a bell when a fresh batch comes out so make sure to head towards the sound if you hear it! It tastes so much better warm. The Portuguese tart has an extremely flakey and buttery crust that is also very crispy. The custard filling is very smooth and definitely a bit on the sweeter side. It had more of a caramelized flavor than the eggy flavor that I'm used to in the Chinese style egg tarts. They also have cinnamon or powdered sugar on the side to add to your tart if you want but it's definitely not needed! This spot is definitely a must try. It's the perfect size to leave you satisfied but it's also incredibly affordable (at only 1.10 euros) so even if you want another one, you can probably find the change to get it! read more

I came in here to grab a pastel de nata. I'd say it was pretty standard relative to the other pastries I've tried in the area. The caramelization on top was perfect, and the pastry had the perfect balance of crunchy and soft. I was happy to see that they had powdered sugar and cinnamon available to top off the pastries - that really elevated the flavor. Can't complain, I recommend! read more
