Pastelaria Portuguesa — Restaurant in Warwick

A small independent coffee shop specialising in Portuguese cakes etc. I've only had coffee and cake, but I think it does other food as well. The upside is that it's clean, fairly smart and well run. And it has a bit of character that distinguishes it from the ubiquitous coffee chains. I now only come here when I'm getting my car fixed or MOT'd at Halfords which is a few minutes walk away. Prior to that, my wife and I came here a couple of times with our 2 dogs. I think dogs are still allowed, but you'd better check beforehand. The Portuguese cakes make a nice change from the usual English sponge cake, although most of these seem to be based on custard. The most famous is the pastel de nata - fairly small, but much nicer than you might think if you've never tried one. The main downside to the place is that it's quite small (although it does have an upstairs). Definitely...

I love Pastelaria Portuguesa and I do recommend them as the product quality is amazing, just be careful when taking away -- bring a calculator! I've been taking away cakes and they have different prices for eating in and takeaway. The latter being cheaper, every time I go there, they charge me the eat in price! I keep hearing the same excuse that it was a mistake... they are definitely lying as all of the staff members did the same to me. The last 4 times I went there, they did the same thing and I was served by 3 different staff members. So it's not a mistake. I am disappointed that I have to tell them each time that they are charging me extra... every time! They should just increase the prices if they are that desperate instead of trying to rip you off by 20p for each cake you buy to take away. Disappointed. Lovely food, bad staff. And I do check... imagine how...

I really enjoyed eating in this place. The cakes are delicious. However, last time I had a really bad experience.

I was “kindly” asked to leave without even finishing my cake. I stayed there for less than 15 minutes. I didn’t understand what was happening at the beginning. I was talking with someone at the restaurant while I was eating and the waiter came to ask me if I wanted something else. I said it was okay and I said I wanted to finish my cake. He said “I can bring a box” and he did. He packed my food so that I could leave and I left. It was so quickly I didn’t even realized what was happening.

Later, discussing it with the person I was with I noticed that they might have asked me to leave because I was speaking aloud. I would have preferred them to tell me, I am deaf in an ear and I didn’t even notice. I consider it was really rude and I am not planning...
