The eggs that they call mexido are delicately scrambled with cream cheese and ohhhh so delicious. I had a cheese cake which was a good finish. They also do pão na chapa with ciabatta bread versus the usual French bread found in São Paulo. This place should be on your list for breakfast for sure!!!!! I returned to SP in April 2018 and sure enough I was back at Ste Pão. I love this place!

A welcoming and open space at Rua Padre João Manuel 968, capacity for around forty diners divided between indoor and outdoor seating including comfy chairs, it is immediately on entry that guests will notice cases filled with Cakes and Pastries, the menu spelling out choices from Santo Pão's kitchen adding to an already tough decision with everything from Soups and Sandwiches to housemade Pasta. Open from 08h00 until 22h00 Monday through Saturday, doors closing an hour earlier Sunday, it was after minutes of indecision that Cold Brew was selected to pair with savories, the former rare in Brazil but in this case excellent while both Brazilian Cheese Bread and crispy Tapioca folded around creamy Eggs and Herbs were also well made at a fair price. Slowly enjoying the Eggs while browsing complimentary WiFi, and never rushed by English-fluent staff despite a crowd, it was after enjoying a small Cookie provided with the Coffee that sweets were ordered, the "Croissant with Hazelnut Cream" in reality a masterpiece of lamination ladled with warm Nutella while Santo Pão's signature Banana Cake lived up to its billing with soft layers divided by housemade Dulce de Leche.

Everything in the glass case is executed with precise care--the crusts are perfectly golden, the interiors are airy and light, and the flavors are wonderfully rich without feeling heavy. The space has a warm, inviting charm that makes it an easy spot to drop into for coffee and a fresh pastry. Combined with friendly, efficient service, it's clear that every detail here is handled with real dedication and care. A fantastic local spot worth returning to again and again.

A recipient of numerous awards ever since opening, the space at Rua Pedroso Alvarenga 655 coming first and still bustling every day beginning at 07h00, it is immediately upon entering the corner door that guests are greeted by sights and smells, the dining room in back at first hidden by Bar and racks full of Pastries. Offering table service as well as grab n' go options, the latter favored by many on Monday, it was seated at the communal high-top that choices were made, a young man with good English skills warning that five items were "too much" but eventually accepting reassurance that anything not finished would be taken to go. Aware of Mr. Baker's Beans, a local award winner with the linger of buttered Toast perfect for breakfast, it was alongside a Double Espresso that dining began with an Almond Croissant, the use of infused Cream rather than ground Nuts not ideal but better than Frangipane while a follow-up of Corn Cake was simple and delicious with high moisture that saw it eat almost like Pudding. Said to use one of the oldest know starters in Brazil for their Sourdough, an items sold by the Loaf or sliced with an array of Spreads, one could not help but smile at the decadence of thickly slathered Caramel, while both Banana Cake and a Chocolate Cookie with Nuts also fared well at an all-in price of just 42 Real (around $10USD.)

    I was on the hunt for coffee when I was staying in Vila Madalena and walked here one day. I had…read morejust arrived right before it started to down pour. I almost walked past the entrance from the street. They have a few different areas one could find a seat - every place had a covered ceiling so when it rains most every spot can be filled up. Lots of plants. I sat in the tiny room with the A/C with windows that faced the street - right behind the coffee bar. It kind of felt like I was inside a treehouse - it was nice to be there when it was raining outside. It was really peaceful I wish I had brought a book or my journal with me that day. When you walk inside through the glass doors, turn to your right and walk towards the coffee bar that looks like you're in a kitchen workspace. This is normal as this is where you will place your order. After you order, you can find your seat and it will be brought out to you. The entire space gives a semi-modernized artsy atmosphere. There is a larger space with sofa, accent chairs and tables near a bookshelf filled with different bags of coffee you could purchase as well as various coffee tools and accessories. They have more indoor/outdoor seating down the corridor you walk down when you first turn in from the street as well. Since I love espressos, I had to try the espresso tasting where they give you one small cup and one larger cup of espresso - both brewed the same way, just presented differently. Stir the smaller cup fast with the spoon and slower with the bigger cup. When you taste them, you will notice a difference as one will be more bitter and the other will have that fuller taste. I preferred the smaller cup as it had more of that dark espresso flavor. The staff are super friendly. There was someone there who helped me decide what to order and explained to me how to drink it when he had brought it out. It was also helpful that he knew a little bit of English. I wish I had came here more than just one time and I regret not buying a couple bags of coffee as the packaging is what drew me to the merch, but I was already overflowing with items in my suitcase.

    Fun little coffee shop that is worth a visit if you are in the area…read more It is a good spot for bringing a laptop and doing some work. The food is nothing special, but the coffee is worth going for.
