"Nice cafe with amazing croissant sandwiches and Galão! The pastel de nata are a bit sweet for my taste, but the dough is so crunchy and the filling has a nice hint of lemon in it. The man (maybe owner?) Is super friendly and attempts to teach Portugish to whole Hamburg :P"

"Over the years this has become one if my favourite spots in Winterhude: Portuguese Cafe/bar that serves snacks (toasted sandwiches) and typical Portuguese sweets, as well as good coffee, beer, wine, etc. Super friendly staff and family run, plus a nice spot on a sunny day. Also show football."

"My favorite Portuguese cafe in Hamburg. The nata is delicious and comparable to the nata I had in Portugal. If you want to get nata, it is better to arrive there in the morning. All other foods are also very good. I also sometimes go there in the evening to watch the Champions League. There are several TVs, so I can easily watch the match from different seats."
