Now even more so with the required distancing of tables. However, they also have tables outside in Geraldo Square. It has counter service, meaning you have to go to the counter to select and pay for your food and then take it to your table. If it is something not ready made, such as toast, they will bring that to your table when it is prepared. The young lady who served me was very pleasant, and the toast and croissant were as expected.

I would not like to have employees like them.

The location could not be more convenient than right in the main square of the town so you 'd hope they would capitalize a little bit better. The staff was rushed the two times we were here as it was busy especially considering how off season we were here. Regardless of that, they were polite but short meeting the minimum requirements but not giving off the glad you 're here vibe we get so many other places. We sat down to eat at a table that had not been cleaned from the last guests. The treats were good as we 've come to expect in Portugal but the overall experience was just OK.

It's hard to find a simple croissant or scone type pastry. The coffee is good if you're having espresso, duplo, or Americano. The service is fast and efficient. Except for the Portuguese bank card, they do not accept any credit card. So, make sure you have cash.

They weren’t that fresh at the closing time, we enjoyed eating them anyway. If we had come early, I’m sure they would tasted better and get better ratings. (Traducido por Google) Llegamos unos minutos antes del cierre. Sin embargo, el cajero fue muy amable y nos presentó los postres locales. Probamos Tartelete Amendôa y Fidalgo. No estaban tan frescos a la hora del cierre, disfrutamos comiéndolos de todos modos. Si hubiéramos venido temprano, estoy seguro de que sabrían mejor y obtendrían mejores calificaciones.
