Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the coxinha and other Brazilian staples as the draw, with several calling out the cocada, pao de queijo, and feijoada as standouts, and one Brazilian diner describing the coxinha and cocada as "life changing." Close behind, the coffee draws consistent praise, alongside cakes like the lemon cake, coconut cheesecake, and carrot cake, and dishes such as chicken Caesar panini, avocado toast, and the chicken soup of the day. Value comes up repeatedly, with diners citing set lunches around twelve pounds and cheap drinks. Service is described as friendly and fast by most, though one reviewer noted things slowed once the cafe got busy and suggested printing bills in advance or getting coffees out sooner, and another mentioned staff not communicating fluently in English. Several return regularly, with one describing stopping back on the same day after an initial visit for lunch.

“Excellent Café to Relax and Enjoy Your Coffee & Lovely Staff☕️ 😀 ❤️”
- Paul J Deason
“Really good breakfast and lunch options. My sons got the full Scottish breakfast, I got eggs Benedict with salmon and the spouse went for carrot soup. All were done delightfully. Plus we were given bread rolls to take away.”
- Pedro Sobral
“I visited yesterday while taking care of some business meetings on my phone, and I decided to stop for a coffee and try one of Brazil’s most famous snacks: the traditional Chicken Coxinha. Everything was absolutely delicious! The coffee was excellent, the coxinha was fresh, crispy, and full of flavour. The quality of the food and drinks really stood out. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout my visit. Service was fast, professional, and of a very high standard. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxing, making it a perfect place to enjoy great food, coffee, and even get some work done. In my opinion, this is the best Brazilian restaurant and coffee shop in Scotland. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Brazilian food and outstanding service. Thank you for such a wonderful experience! ⭐🇧🇷☕🥟”
