An amazing Cafe in the heart of magical Sintra 😊 high quality food and respectful staff. It's perfect for brunch or a quick bite. The portions are really large and filling. The place has its own personality! Each corner of it has a different vibe which is very interesting. They also sell stuffs and food and wine as souvenirs. Highly recommended

Gorgeous café close to the train station. I had breakfast here for three days (I was staying at Chalet Saudade) and each day the breakfast was superb! If you’re staying at the hotel you get a continental style breakfast here at the café, and to be honest I really wasn’t expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised by how excellent the breakfast was. You get a really substantial breakfast, which was fresh and delicious. Just want to mention the staff too, who are wonderful. Friendly, welcoming and very attentive. I did hope to come back and eat here during the day, but unfortunately never got the chance as I was never back in time. Next time though…

Enjoy a nice walk around Sintra a variety of shops on the way to get nice souvenirs... the food is traditional and simple here ... nice to pick and nibble on some good variety of starters ... the building. Classic historical architecture venue

Great food. The establishment it's self was a mercado at one time and they have preserved some of the structure inside. The staff is super friendly as well. Vegan d vegetarian options.

Delicious hot pressed sandwich, apple cake was unlike any apple cake we've tried before, maybe a bit too sweet but still very good. We paid around 17€ for the sandwich, cake and two coffee drinks. We had to approach the staff ourselves, otherwise they probably wouldn't have noticed us as the place was quite busy 😅 What a great place right near the train station.

Such a cozy cafe to eat at. Loved the traditional decor and the diversity of the menu. Very nice staff and comfortable space. We ate the croissants, the yogurt parfait, some traditional pastries and some juice of the day. All good food.

The place is very nice and cozy. The staff is very friendly and everybody speaks English. Even though it is very crowded, we got a table in maximum 5 minutes after we arrived. The food is very good! We had the Salmon XL sandwich and the Chicken XL sandwich. Both of them were very good. The apple pie however was impressive. Is not the regular apple pie that one would expect. The base is made from biscuits (similar to cheesecake), in the middle big chunks of apples and on top a creme made of condensed milk and cinnamon. For sure it is something that you need to try if you are lucky and it is not sold out when you arrive. In conclusion, a very nice place with very friendly staff and very good food and coffee! Would recommend to check if around!

This is a must see must eat place. Food amazing, staff is super nice and the place it self is gorgeous. Highly recommended.

We would've liked to give 4,5 stars. Tops: - the food was really delicious; - the overall price is good; - the place is beautiful; - the place is very clean (COVID-19); - outside tables; - dog-friendly (outside); - very big scone and quiche; Tips: - the lady(manager?) was not so friendly in the beginning, she was nicer in the end; - it took quite some time for us to be approached and to order - that is critical in a place like Sintra where you have many places to visit and limited parking time; - the juice of the day was the only expensive thing we saw in the menu;

It is an elegant particular café a few meters from Sintra train station. Nice staff, they speak English. I had two pastries typical of Sintra and a good big cup of cappuccino.

Clearly popular café with queues outside the entrance. Slightly chaotic environment, but it comes with all tourists visiting the place. Unfortunately quite disappointed with the food. Ham and cheese croissants were okay. Yoghurt wasn't all that nice. Scones tasted like they've been baked alongside fish. And raisin apple bread had nice taste but very doughy. Service was quite good and staff were friendly!

(Translated by Google) Excellent service and very pleasant atmosphere! Eat food and cry for more! 5 stars more than deserved. (Original) Excelente serviço e ambiente muito agradável! Comida de comer e chorar por mais! 5 estrelas mais do que merecidas.

Nice coffeeshop in Sintra. Whenever I pass by it is always busy or has a queue. This time i managed to have a spot for coffee and sandwich. Good variety in the menu. The food and coffee were fresh and tasty. The staff is friendly and speak English too.

The best apple pie of my life, seriously! The cream is probably made of kajmak mixed with custard - it's sticky, sweet and amazing!

A must visit if you come to Sintra. We ordered the soup, sandwiches, pastries and coffee, and everything was delicious. Portions were very generous. The setting, inside a renovated historic building, could not be more charming.

This is such a lovely place. Huge delicious meals and affordable. The location is also very convenient. My only complaint is that the sandwich was too big even for my big appetite haha.

Got a chance to go before they closed for the holidays, so happy I did! It was really a great place for a quick and easy tostada, and they are huge! Also a good place to work from if you don't have Internet at home.

Super friendly staff, delicious lunch, coffee & cake in a fantastic setting. Very quirky cafe set in a historical building.

Just down the street from the train station and away from all the crowds and traffic…you will find this quaint little restaurant right on the street. Friendly staff, you can communicate in English, Español or Portugués. Very fast service and with a kind smile. Very nice atmosphere with soft music playing in the background. We had a vegan salad and a toasted ham and cheese plate. Iced tea and Café Americano. Very well priced. Lots of food and a great flavor. It is worth the stop. Buen provecho!

(Translated by Google) Wonderful place. Perfect for lunch or dinner on the cozy terrace they have. The presentation of the dishes has been excellent, and the quality and taste even more so. I recommend the pumpkin dessert. It is one of the best I have ever tasted. The attention of the staff has been very attentive and friendly. Mandatory stop at the end of the visit to the Sintra Palace. (Original) Maravilloso lugar. Perfecto para comer o cenar en la terracita acogedora que tienen. La presentación de los platos ha sido excelente, y la calidad y sabor más aún. recomiendo el postre de calabaza. Es de los mejores que he probado nunca. La atención del personal ha sido muy atenta y amable. Parada obligatoria al terminar la visita del palacio de Sintra.

(Translated by Google) A delicious tapas bar, the team is always on hand to provide good advice, both in the dishes and in the choice of wine. Small portions (Tapas oblige) But the value for money is very good. (Original) Bar à Tapas délicieux, l'équipe est de bon conseil que ça soit dans les plats ou dans le choix du vin. Petites portions (Tapas oblige) Mais le rapport qualité prix est très bien.

(Translated by Google) Sintra special corner. Hidden and well decorated. The attention of the staff is very good. As for the tapas, care is appreciated in the good preparation, with good execution and taste. The genre may not be the best but the handling of the product and preparation is more than correct. The presentation of the food is special. All of this gives it an impossible 5 star rating. (Unless you are a gastronomic hick). (Original) Rincón especial de Sintra. Escondido y bien decorado. La atención del personal es muy buena. En cuanto a las tapas se aprecia un cuidado en la buena elaboración ,con buena ejecución y gusto. El género puede ser que no sea el mejor pero el manejo del producto y elaboración es más que correcto. La presentación de la comida es especial. Todo esto le da unas 5 estrellas imposibles de bajar. (Salvo que seas un cateto gastronómico).

I love this place, food is absolutely amazing! Highly recommended!

We had an amazing lunch here! Try to get a table on their patio overlooking the old town. We shared 4 small plates in 2 and it was more than enough. I’d encourage anyone to try their delicious octopus à lagareiro and their azeitão cheese with figs and ham!

(Translated by Google) The dishes are good, the quality is there, ideal for an aperitif with friends in a nice setting. With a young child it's a bit tricky. The prices are correct but significantly higher than the general rule (Original) Les plats sont bon, la qualité est la, ideal pour un apero entre potes dans un cadre sympa. Avec un enfant en bas age c'est un peu delicat . Les prix sont correcte mais sensiblement plus élevé qu'en regle general

(Translated by Google) The best food of our trip to Portugal, all great. The cream cheese dessert with powdered oreo cookies, which looks like a pot, amazing! The site is hidden in the upper part of Sintra, xo it is totally worth climbing the slopes x to regain strength there. Recommended 100% (Original) La mejor comida de nuestro viaje a Portugal, todo buenísimo. El postre de crema de queso con galletas oreo en polvo, que parece una maceta, increíble! El sitio está escondido en la parte alta de Sintra, xo merece la pena totalmente subir las cuestas xa reponer fuerzas allí. Recomendable 100%

Best breakfast in Sinatra! I had the vegan panini - lettuce, lemony chickpea spread, avocado and tomatoes. Such a delicious sandwich in a very generous size. I also had freshly squeezed orange juice! I had to skip lunch...lol The staff was super friendly too. The next day, Monday morning, the place is closed to the public and servers only guests from Chalet Saudade so I had toasts with the chickpea spread, avocado and tomatoes - delicious! Go there if you are in Sintra!

(Translated by Google) We never tire of tapas! Especially these! Tomato, cold meats, everything is good! (Original) On ne se lasse jamais des tapas ! Surtout celles-ci ! Tomate, charcuterie, tout est bon !

The restaurant is very nice. The salad is fresh. I ordered decaf iced latte but it doesn't taste right. The restaurant is very busy

Smiley and wonderful service. Comfy ambience, a wide spread of pastries/cakes. XL latte with double shots was just what I needed for a cold midday. The huge scones were simply the best I've had, crispy/crusty on the outside and soft on the inside. Great place for a breakfast before you make your way to Pena Palace.

Excellent food - the veggie soup was a joy for my palate and simple apple-raisin bread with butter amazed me with its simplicity. The service is also extremely nice and well-behaved. Atmosphere is just right.

Grabbed the suadade coffee and a chocolate croissant. Both were delicious. The suadade coffee is way sweeter than expected (which I really like) but it may not be for everyone. Aside from that, everything was excellent and I highly recommend.

We had a tasty breakfast here. The food and service were both good, and the cafe has a lovely feel about it. There weren't many places open early in the area and so we were happy this was. Being a popular cafe, it wasn't too busy when we were there, and the price was reasonable.

This is a nice spot for breakfast. The building is fascinating, like a labyrinth, with little nooks and corners. Had a nice cheese and ham toasted croissant and tea for breakfast.

One of the best places to have a brunch in Sintra. My favorite are the omega 3 sandwich with salmon and of course the scones.

A good place for a quick meal. The panini is well toasted and the cheese nicely melted. The raisin and apple toast with peanut butter was enjoyable. Smooth peanut butter that is not too thick in the mouth. I thing special to report for the cappuccino. The same for the nata. But espresso milkshake was really good. It’s not the thick ice cream style. Easy to drink and very good. I would recommend it. The service was good as well.

Very cozy environment, the food was very tasty, specially the scones, which had a perfect texture and melted in your mouth! The service was fast and friendly. Definitely a place to check out, specially if you need to go to the train station!

Really good and huge toasts! Were very tasty. The salads were also great, we ordered 2 different ones, both very well served and fresh. The space is very pleasant and the staff is mostly friendly. Good location in the center of the village 👌

Wonderful breakfast recommended by our local host. We enjoyed our breakfast so much that we went back the next day. Great location, service and delicious pastries and sandwiches.

It tasted so good, we asked them for a different sandwich and they made it without being negative about it. And the staff were also very sweet

A cosy restaurant with the best toasted sandwich I have ever had in Portugal. It is very suitable for tourist who wish to have a rest after the visit to castles. The cafe itself is probably a heritage with archaelogical findings. The sandwich is in huge portion sonI would recommend one set share by 2 people.

(Translated by Google) Quality in cooking. Excellent flavors. Small snacks. (Original) Qualidade na confecção. Excelente sabores. Petiscos de pequenas dimensões.

(Translated by Google) If you visit Sintra, you have to stop by Tascantiga to eat. Very good Portuguese food and delicious desserts. (Original) Si visitas Sintra, tienes que pasar por Tascantiga a comer. Comida portuguesa muy buena y postres deliciosos.

(Translated by Google) Very very nice treatment !! You feel at home !! To repeat (Original) Trato muy muy agradable!! Te sientes como en casa!! Para repetir

(Translated by Google) Excellent restaurant ... Good food, great location, very friendly service (Original) Excelente restaurante... Boa comida, excelente local, atendimento muito simpático

(Translated by Google) Very good food. Affordable prices. Very friendly staff Great atmosphere I recommend (Original) Comida muito boa. Preços acessiveis. Staff muito simpático Ótimo ambiente Recomendo

(Translated by Google) Food very well prepared, top presentation, wonderful dessert, however super high prices for the doses presented. Limited wine list. Which makes me a little sorry, as it could be a regular chance to consider a snack with friends. Aimed at the tourist. (Original) Comida muito bem confeccionada, apresentação top, sobremesa maravilhosa, no entanto preços super elevados para as doses apresentadas. Carta vinhos limitada. O que me deixa alguma pena, pois poderia ser uma hipótese regular a ter em conta para um petisco com os amigos. Vocacionado para o turista.

Beautiful place, location and food. Not only beautiful but delicious too. Staff is super friendly and the place has lots of local food variety

(Translated by Google) We ordered green broth which was delicious! The tapas are very good, the octopus and the pork were very tasty! The waiter was also very personable. I recommend (Original) Pedimos caldo verde que estava delicioso! As tapas são muito boas, o polvo e a carne de porco estavam muito gostosos! O garçom também foi muito gentil. Recomendo

(Translated by Google) Great (Original) Excelente

(Translated by Google) Big disappointment - the welcome is warm and the servers are friendly but that does not make up for the poor quality of the meal and the excessive prices everything was disappointing: "house potatoes" correct but uninteresting, "specialties" based on cod and sausage really not great, chips not pleasant in the mouth (!) ... a little better for the grilled chorizo there are probably better in Sintra (Original) Grosse déception - l'accueil est chaleureux et les serveurs sont sympathiques mais ça ne rattrape pas la piètre qualité du repas et les prix excessifs tout était décevant : "potatoes maison" correctes mais sans intérêt, "spécialités" à base de morue et de saucisse vraiment pas terribles, chips pas agréables en bouche (!)... un peu mieux pour le chorizo grillé il y a probablement mieux à Sintra

(Translated by Google) Very nice setting, the food is good by cons in terms of quantity / price there is a jump. Very expensive for what is on the plate. € 11 for a charcuterie / cheese platter with 3 cheeses 2 sausages and 2 pieces of ham without bread, it's expensive to pay. 7.5 € for 6 shrimps .. But otherwise we still ate very well. (Original) Cadre très sympa, la nourriture est bonne par contre en terme de quantité /prix il y a un bond. Très chère pour ce qu’il y a dans l’assiette . 11€ pour un plateau de charcuterie/fromage avec 3 fromages 2 saucissons et 2 bout de jambon sans pain c’est chère payé. 7,5€ pour 6 crevettes.. Mais sinon on a quand même très bien mangé.

I highly recommend eating in this restaurant. The staff is really friendly and the place is very simple but very nicely decorated, it created a very home like atmosphere. We stopped here after visiting Pena castle. Definitely try the cheese with ham, it’s the right amount of melted state, ready to be spread on a crispy bread. Everything we tried was extremely delicious, octopus, the shrimps with garlic and of course chorizo. They have a large variety of wine so definitely try at least, they will be able to advise which wine goes well with what you ordered. The prices are acceptable, not too expensive, especially when the quality and taste of the dishes is so good.

Just one street further on from the main cluster of restaurants and almost like it's in a different town altogether because of it, Tascantiga has lovely staff, big portions of their tapas and a fabulous patio. Full of quirky touches (the bathrooms are great!) this place is worth climbing just a little further. Super place!

The place is quite nice and it's excellent for a lunch after visit the Pena Palace and the Castle. The food is very, very good and the waiters are welcoming. I definitely recommend this place, is probably one of the best you can find in Sintra. Don't miss the desserts, they are fantastic! The prices are quite low and fair for what you get.

Their sandwiches are great. The staff seemed a bit stressed out, which is understandable since the place was packed. They moved a table out of one of the rooms and seated us in the hallway, which didn't feel very nice. The coffee and freshly squeezed juice were great. If we had gotten there outside peak hours I'm sure we would have had a much better experience.

Highly recommended! Friendly staff and cozy place with tasty food. We came here in the late afternoon after a long walk in the castles, and the place helped cheering you back up for sure :)

Service is non existent, and eating the squid was like trying to eat a tennis ball. I would had told them if they had bothered to visit my table even once. The octopus was quite good though.

The greatest finding to have a meal! Tuna sandwich is more like a burger and it brings a fresh steak of tuna. So delicious!

Super delicious food for a reasonable price. The waiter was extraordinaryly friendly and helpful. Definitely would go again.

Best service I ever had

Totally tasty and a cute cozy place. Definitely a must go when you love portuguese tapas. By the way - you get the best coffee here!!!

I think Tascantiga was the best culinary experience for me in Portugal and I travelled from north to south. Their octopus salad is to die for, just as their mushroom gratin with goat cheese. I was fighting with my boyfriend for every bite. Highly recommended!

This place is highly recommended. Good quality and delicious food. Probably the best deserts I have ever tried.

(Translated by Google) The cuisine is mediocre, octopus badly seasoned, soup bland. Mediocre. FOR TOURISTS. Small portions and not especially cheap, this is normal in a place like Sintra, but you can cook better. (Original) La cocina es mediocre, pulpo mal aliñado, sopa sosa. Mediocre. PARA TURISTAS. Raciones pequeñas y no especialmente baratas, esto es normal en un sitio como Sintra, pero se.puede cocinar mejor.

(Translated by Google) Not really central but, in any case, 1 minute from the central building. After all the tour, especially if you are traveling on tuk tuk, let yourself be dropped off here because both the place and the cuisine really deserve. Low prices and very special dishes that do not take away the taste but rather enhance it. A real stroke of luck to have happened there (Original) Non proprio centralissimo ma, comunque, a 1 minuto dal palazzo centrale. Dopo tutto il giro, soprattutto se viaggiate sui tuk tuk, fatevi lasciare qui davanti perchè sia il posto che la cucina meritano davvero. Prezzi bassi e impiattamenti molto particolari che non tolgono il gusto ma anzi lo valorizzano. Un vero colpo di fortuna esserci capitati

Love this place. Have been here for a 2nd time - one year after the first visit. Try the dessert - awesome

(Translated by Google) I really liked the atmosphere and the food (Original) Gostei muito do ambiente e da comida

(Translated by Google) Very good, fresh, simple and quality products. The servers are super nice! I highly recommend, to unwind after descending from the castle! :) (Original) Très bon, des produits frais, simples et de qualité. Les serveurs sont super agréables ! Je recommande fortement, pour décompresser après la descente du château ! :)

(Translated by Google) Incredible cod salad (Original) Salada de bacalhau incrível

Cod donuts is a must try! Very cute place to sit outside and gaspacho was the best one what I’ve ever had! ❤️👌

(Translated by Google) Nice place with a terrace outside, with the bathrooms decorated with hanging clothes. The azeitao cheese with ham was very good, the oily lagareiro octopus and somewhat hard but the flavor was good, farinheira with egg was good, an intense flavor. Very average pork ribs, fried without more history. The cheesecake with very good black crisp. (Original) Local bonito con terraza en el exterior, con los baños decorados con ropa tendida. El queso azeitao con jamón muy bueno, el pulpo lagareiro aceitoso y algo duro pero de sabor estaba bien, farinheira con huevo estaba buena, un sabor intenso. Las costillas de cerdo muy normalitas, fritas sin más historia. La cheesecake con crujiente negro muy buena.
