Cute cafe with delicious pastel de natas. These were just as good if not better than the ones I tried in Porto on a trip last year. Friendly service and places to sit. A little exxy at $6 each. But worth a try for anyone craving one. Tried the custard tart (original). Crispy light pastry with a gooey custard interior. Tip: Get a sprinkle of cinnamon on top! It enhances the flavour.

3 words…pistachio Portuguese tart! These lil treats were still hot out of the over, the pastry is so perfect and best part they’re not sickly sweet like some places. Visiting again asap!

Ever since I’ve been to Belém in Portugal, I’m on a pastéis de nata hunt back in Australia. So far tried in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and this one in the Southbank is the best. Crispy and flaky pastry that’s its own entirety. The custard is not overly sweetened, which is what I like about, similar to the Belem tarts and tarts in Macau. Tried their goat cheese walnut with honey tart, smooth texture of the custard with delicious goat cheese. Slightly savoury 👍 The Nutella one has the traditional egg custard filling. Not overpowered by the Nutella and the hazelnut gives a nice balance of the crunchiness. 😋 The cafe is decorated with red and white stripe cover and interior that’s very lovely, staff are friendly 😊 Edit: went back to buy more the second day (of course) Tried their chicken and herb, which is like a crunchy little pie, such a creative invention.

Delicious Pastel de Nata in South Brisbane near Fish Lane. At $11.50 for one custard tart and an iced coffee I thought it was a little steep but the tarts are actually quite large and filling - definitely the largest I’ve ever had and I’ve recently returned from Portugal where I tried many. They also threw in a mini tart for me too which was a lovely surprise. The pastry is lovely and crisp, with a large, very tasty filling - more on the eggy/runny custard side than baked, but it was lovely to eat. I came in at 1pm on a Tuesday and the tart was warm and clearly very fresh. The coffee was great too.

I always get great service and a fast, brilliant coffee here. All the food I've tried from here has been good but the Portuguese custard tarts are the best I've ever had. Not much seating but most people get takeaway so it's not a problem. South Brisbane's best kept secret, in my opinion

Worth coming for the tarts alone! Insanely flaky, crispy pastry that shatters into 1,000,000 pieces as you bite into them. We had the goats cheese+honey, chicken, and traditional. All delicious fillings, served still warm. Also, a bit of a bargain at $22 for 4, which was enough for a light brekky for two. Great coffee too.

We stayed in the building next door for a month and visited this café several times with my husband and child. The egg tarts were amazing — my kid loved them! The banana bread and coffee were also great. I especially loved the prosciutto mozzarella toastie — so delicious! I wish I could have had it more than once. It’s a lovely place to sit outside and enjoy a quiet meal. The owner and Korean staff were always so kind and friendly, greeting us every time we passed by 🙂 We couldn’t say goodbye before leaving Brisbane, but I’ll always remember this café. Wishing you lots of happiness and success! 🩵

This is a no-frills café located within the residential building. John is hospitable and friendly; he recommended me the traditional custard tart with cinnamon sprinkles, and it is a champion. I was told they sold their tart to one of the Melbourne’s tea room if I do crave for it in Vic.

Bacon and egg roll with mozzarella cheese, rocket and special sauce which definitely had mustard. So much flavour and a generous size to keep you going all day. Top it off with a latte and it’s a great meal. Staff are friendly, it is mostly take away service but there are a couple of small tables for two on footpath. Add to that some cruisy music playing to dull out the trains. All in all I recommend you experience it for yourself. Check out the menu
