According to Time Out magazine, "Don’t arrive too late at the weekend if you want one of Lisboa’s famous pastel de nata – they often sell out by 2pm. It’s a humble setting, with plenty of banter from staff and slightly fancier pâtisserie than some other Portuguese cake shops. Bica (Portuguese espresso) was good and strong, and they do a nice galão (latte) too."[2]

Yotam Ottolenghi, the Israeli-born cookery writer and chef-patron says that it is one of his favourite shops in London.[3] It has been in Golborne Road since at least the 1990s.[4]
