What a fun place to pop into. It's a typical candy store, probably overpriced for tourists…read more Although I do like that it's priced based on size of the "pill bottle" and not weight. A little odd that you use plastic gloves to select the candy and put them in the bottle. It was odd to try to fit as much in as possible with different sized candy. It's a good souvenir or gift to to make for someone else. They have sticker messages that act as "directions"....very fun

Looking to buy some souvenirs, we decided to visit this chocolate boutique…read more The girl working here greeted us right away even though she was assisting another customer. As soon as she was finished she gave all her attention to us. Talk about first class service, she took the time to show us everything in the store and to answer any questions we had. The packaging is beautiful. My son is a huge dark chocolate lover so I let him choose whatever he wanted. I dropped some serious cash here $$$. Lol. I actually have a section in my fridge where it is all dedicated to nothing but chocolates. I hope my family and friends will enjoy these delectable sweet morsels.

I like chocolate. I like chocolate shops…read more I saw this place across the street after a long day of sightseeing and we had to stop in. In addition to having single-origin chocolate from Ecuador, they've got some other bars. Since it was late and we were tired, we purchased a sampling and verified that they'd be open the next day. We tried the chocolate and decided to go back and get more to give as gifts -- the kids are also appreciators of craft chocolate. I bought a bag of candied ginger, coated in dark chocolate. It may sound weird, but it is amazing! My wife liked a bar that had orange filling. The combination of dark chocolate and orange is definitely a favorite in our house. The chocolate is not too sweet and the São Tomé bar I purchased reminds me a bit of coffee -- so a mocha flavor just from the beans, sugar and vanilla.

The gelato is pretty solid. My coffee and chocolate combination delivered on the sweetness and had…read moreoverall decent flavor, though neither flavor was particularly intense. For me it was served at the perfect temperature: Not too cold to hold, just on the edge of melting, delivering half-melted bites of gelato all the way throughout the cup. I did notice visible ice crystals and also ice on the palate, which is an unfortunate sign of non-ideal freezing: Either it was flash frozen or it's been in the case for too long. It is unfortunate that all the flavors are sealed away in lidded containers. That's no way to browse for gelato: the color and temptation is all sealed away behind identical-looking containers. I made do by reading the menu, which is written in English and Portuguese. It was also clear as day, from the forced smile and workmanlike manner of the sole behind-the-counter staffer, that he was totally over his job. That vibe drags everything down a little.

Loved the neon signs and 1950s theme of this gelato shop! Employee was patient and kind as we chose…read moreour flavors. Since they are stored in metal tubs - it's a good sign the gelato is good! The gelato was soft, but very tasty, it just melted a bit quicker. In a medium cup, I got marabunta (chocolate chip), mango, & chocolate! All 3 were great flavors! Overall would come back here!

delicious pastel de nata, affordable coffee. always consistently good for a quick treatread more

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!
