Cale Confeitaria Com Tradicao I

We haven't been here for a while, and have enjoyed lunch here in the past. As we were in Caldas for the afternoon we stopped for coffee and cake. The cakes, which were as good as ever, were simply delicious, and very generous portions also......

We haven't been in the café for a while. We just wanted a light snack as we were going to a Christmas dinner in the evening. We ordered ham and cheese toasty, ham sandwich, coffee with milk, black coffee, a bottle of sparkling water and two rich creamy slices of gateaux, all for €9,50. The place was really busy, mainly locals. This is a wonderful spot for people watching. Good choice of light lunches besides cakes and ice creams.

We have had coffee and pastries there and some okay crepes au chocolat. The service was very helpful, English speaking which makes life here much easier and very friendly. We managed to get a table at the out side and loved to sit and watch. Good quality and nice setting, we can recommend this place.

Nice cakes, average meals,..but sometimes theres alot of waiting for something not as good as could be. Very polite attendants.

Lovely café on a corner in the central shopping area of Caldas da Rainha. Very popular with lunchtime diners as they do a good looking salad 4 ingredients plus a dressing for 4 euros 50. We visited for coffee and pastries as they were so good worthy of a top pastry chef yet costing just over a euro. The coffee was the best we'd tried yet in Portugal, as we like ours quite strong with a dash of hot milk the equivalent of a decent Antipodean flat white. We found this here, it was called an abatinado pingado and cost a mere 70 cents. Friendly staff, plus an outdoor seating area fantastic place which we revisited. Oh and they do great ice cream too, in several flavours. Highly recommended.
