Best Dishes at Lisboa Patisserie
Pastel de Nata
PastryThe star of Lisboa Patisserie. These are described as 'absolutely perfect — crisp, creamy, and fresh out of the oven'. The caramelized exterior gives way to creamy egg custard inside. They often sell out by 2pm on weekends. Reviews call this the most authentic pastel de nata in London. Two tarts for £1.80.
Rice Cake
PastryReviewers describe the rice cakes as 'particularly good'. These are light, delicate, and made fresh daily. A simple Portuguese classic that showcases the quality of ingredients and technique at Lisboa. Excellent value at around £1 per piece.
Ham and Cheese Roll
SavoryReviewers highlight these as 'particularly good'. A flaky pastry filled with quality ham, sharp cheese, and olives. Substantial enough for a light breakfast or snack. These are sold by the piece at around £1.20 each.
Croissant
PastryClassic French-style croissant made fresh daily. Simple, buttery, and a staple in the morning queue. Plain or with dark chocolate folded inside. At around £1.50, this is one of London's best-value croissants.
Portuguese Coffee (Espresso)
DrinksA proper espresso served small and strong, the way it's drunk in Portugal. The perfect pairing for any pastry. Staff are Portuguese and the coffee tastes like it's been brought straight from Lisbon. Around £1.50-£2.

Arrive early and definitely before 2pm on weekends if you want pastel de nata — they often sell out. Get there by noon on Saturdays to guarantee stock.
You can buy 4-5 pastries for under £10, making this one of the cheapest places to get a proper breakfast in Notting Hill. The quality rivals places 3x the price.
The interior is basic and humble — no seating to speak of. Most people queue, buy, and eat as they walk. It's part of the charm. Get a pastry and a coffee, then find a spot on Golborne Road.
Come on a weekday morning (Mon-Fri before 11am) if you want to avoid crowds and actually have a moment to chat with the staff about what just came out of the oven.
