About

This small, colorful Portuguese café is known for its filling vegan breakfast plate with tofu, roasted vegetables, salad, lentils, and bread, plus a distinctive house-made sunflower-seed veggie pâté sandwich. The vintage, quirky interior and outdoor terrace suit a casual brunch or lunch, though the tight room gets busy and can mean a wait.
