A Casa Da Isabel - Portimão

Wow amazing coffee in such a unique building super friendly staff and the best pastel de nata I’ve had in Portugal will definitely be back Made our honeymoon

We went past House of Isabel one evening and it looked really nice but it was closing, so we went back one afternoon. The interior of the cafe is really pretty and old school there are a wide variety of traditional pastries and bakes on display. There are a few tables indoors most were taken. There were also a few tables out in front of the shop. Greeted one of the staff she just ignored me but we were served by a younger member of staff. Took a while to decide what to have as it all looked really nice. We finally ordered a few cakes and sat outside where pre-payment was required. Had ordered a decaf coffee but not sure whether it was decaf in the end as didn't sleep very well that evening! When the coffee came, I handed back the sachets of sugar as I didn't need them I noticed there was a torn off section of a packet on the saucer so they might not have cleaned the saucer before serving the coffee on it to me, which is very poor. A couple of the desserts had the egg strands in which were interesting. One was in a rice paper wrap the other was in a cake with nuts (almond or walnut? . We also had a chocolate dessert with biscuity bits in and another tart which had a soft, mushy filling. We liked everything and got a pack of carob and almond cookies to take away as well. These were a bit hard not as crisp as we thought it would be. There also wasn't as much almonds in them as we would like. Overall, it's a nice place to indulge in your sweet tooth and feel like you're stepping back in time.

What a lovely little place! Came across it quite by accident and was lured in by the beautiful floor tiles.... I will seriously be making sure I go back the pastries are beyond words amazing!! Lovely coffee too, in beautiful surroundings, it's very cute and olde worlde honestly, if you're in the area, do yourself a favour and definitely try the Portuguese tarts here... they are the best I've ever tasted... the pastry is so thin, I have no idea how they even manage to put the tarts together. Seriously heavenly <3

A Casa da Isabel é um espaço tradicional e bem decorado.Neste espaço encontramos uma variedade de doces tradicionais algarvios.Posso afirmar que foi lá que consumi o melhor Doce Fino de todos os que já provei.No entanto, como é habitual no Algarve, os produtos são um pouco caros.

Foi convencida que encontraria um D. Rodrigo, morgados tão falados nesta casa...nada...poucos bolos e os que existiam, pelo menos o que comi a trilogia do Algarve notava-se perfeitamente que já tinha uns dias, nada macio e duro. Mais, foi uma porção muito pequena para os €, fiquei desiludida, tudo muito caro só para turismo.Por outro lado, a casa em si é muito fofa, faz lembrar as casas antigas, neste ponto gostei muito. Não vou voltar porque para comer os famosos bolos algarvios tenho um lugar mais barato e de muita qualidade.
