From the outside, you might think this is just one more of the hundreds of patisseries that Lisbon has, yet you are wrong. It is one of the best kept secrets of Príncipe Real.
Located near the garden, it is a corner patisserie, where looking through the window you can see the most perfect wholewheat muffins, astonishing cream tarts (”Pastel de Nata”) as well as amazing warm brioche sandwich filled with cheese and ham (”Merenda”).
Also Doce Real makes its own bread, so if you are up for it, just ask for a simple bread with cheese and an orange juice.
We can’t write a lot more about this place: just go there and then you will agree with me: words aren’t enough to describe how good everything really is. This really is where all the portuguese delicatessens do meet for you to find out.
Vee’s favorites: Try the merenda and ask them to warm it up and ask for “Vigor” Milk (bottled chocolate milk). Best combination possible!
