Great location and ambience, quality service and delicious food! I went there many times as I was staying really close, and never had a bad (or even average) experience! Not cheap, yes, and very tourist-like, but you get what you pay for. The one right...beside (Benard) cannot even be compared.More

Very good coffee at such a beautiful place. One of the oldest coffee house here. Highly recommend! :)

Coming from Vienna, a city that is famous for its traditional cafes, it's sort of a must to visit alike cafes in other cities. I do highly recommend having your coffee (or food) inside, because only this way you will feel the special atmosphere of...the place. When sitting outside, the relatively high price level is not justified.More

Very few, nowadays, are the places where you could feel you are sharing room with universal history. “A Brasileira” is one of this. Coffe and poetry, original architecture and intelligent newspapers. The presence of Fernando Pessoa, his modernism, his books. You can find tasteful food,...genius coffee, collection of poems written by Pessoa at those tables. A great service, competent in food, beverages and poetry. A must.More

Stopped by for an afternoon cofee and a pastel de nata, I was not disappointed!! The pastel de nata was one of the best I've ever had and the environment was really well designed.

Went for lunch. Sat outside. Slow service, mediocre food, and astronomically overpriced! Add to that some nearby busker making so much noise, it was impossible to think straight. First visit = last visit.

We ordered 2 mixed fruit smoothies. €7.50 per glass. We were given 2 glasses of melon-flavoured lukewarm water. Very disappointing. We complained to the waiter. Ordered fresh orange juice which turned out to be dilluted with water. So no more Brasileira for us.

The restaurant inside looks really nice, but due to COVID and as it was really hot, we decided to sit outside. The custard tart was OK, nothing impressive and they charge €6 for a glass of orange juice (!!) My friends and I were there...as the location is convenient but whilst sitting outside, the waiter stayed next to us looking really annoyed for being there, which of course made us feel unwelcome.More
