I was traveling from the states to Floripa when I found Café Cultura! The staff was very accommodating and one person even spoke english fluently - how grateful I was because I do not speak Portuguese. He was able to make suggestions on what to eat and also provided nice conversation. I was working remotely for the week I was visiting Brazil and luckily Café Cultura had great WiFi and ample outlets to keep my devices charged! Now that I'm back in the states, I'll be missing the staff as well as the delicious food - the avocado / smoke salmon toast was delicious as well as a big portion (probably could be split between two people!) . Also, I tried the tapioca crepe, which was nice and never tried before as it's not found in the states. Also, tried the eggs benedict which was delicious! The cafe latte's and cappuccinos were perfect!! Before leaving, I bought a few bags of their coffee! Great experience and next time I'm visiting Floripa I'll be visiting this location again! ...

The pie that I ordered, I asked to take it home so I could warm it up myself.
The idea of this place is good. The location is nice. It’s comfortable and has lots of tables. It’s a little drafty but so are most places on the island. The servers are super nice. Fernanda is very charming and helpful and Beatrice as well. They are the best part of...
Read moreI had a "brunch" here on Sunday, March 17 at 11:00 a.m., and the food was mediocre/average, the coffee with vegetable milk was acidic (feels old), and after complaining, the barista (who does not speak Portuguese) did not provide much assistance and was unconcerned about the complaint. The order took a while to arrive. Took more than an hour.
On the other hand, the waiter who delivered the meal to the tables was really kind and competent. He was clearly overburdened with work, and he was serving multiple tables at once. Give this person a raise. He was able to provide more customer service than any of the other folks working behind the counter.
The "Pao de queijo" also was disappointing.
The infrastructure is...
