Fabulous! Great variety of authentic Portugal flavours and pastries, truly delicious. I am visiting this restaurant for the third time and I always find this place filled with people having laughter and joy. Such a nice vibe I have at this place. The lady who owns the restaurant is main reason for keeping this place lively. Such a nice woman, manages everything by her own bootstraps. Reasons to visit this restaurant: Great place, fabulous food, heartfelt service, free WIFI if you need to spend time alone and of-course ample slots to park your vehicle. At last, may be opportunity to handshake with some light minded senior audience.

Lovely friendly little cafe with great service. Really good quality sausages and bacon at a very reasonable price. I don't normally leave reviews but work all around the UK and it's nice when you find somewhere that does a great all day breakfast.

For the first time, I visit this cafe, and from the first sign impressed with the atmosphere and decoration. The cappuccino is with big creme but like in every Portugal cafe, there has only white sugar. There serve English breakfast as well and Portuguese dishes. It is nice place to spend the cafe or breakfast with friends.

What a fantastic team we had look after us. Kevin our waiter was amazing. So polite and friendly and couldn’t have made us feel more welcome. We were celebrating a wedding anniversary and Kevin could t do enough to make sure we felt special on the day. Thank you Kevin. We will be back.

Came in here after craving a francesinha after my recent visit to Porto. I didn’t catch the owner’s name, but she was so welcoming and lovely. I had the francesinha and my boyfriend had squid. We were both extremely impressed with the portion sizes, taste and price. It was like being back in Portugal! Such a lovely little place where the food is cooked fresh for you and the staff have a genuine and native passion for their food and service. We will definitely be returning. Thank you so much!
