Confeitaria Nacional

Kick off your morning or afternoon stroll in Praça da Figueira at Lisbon's oldest operating bakery, founded in 1829. Step beneath the ornate gilded ceilings to try a fresh Pão de Deus ("Bread of God")—a pillow-soft, sweet brioche bun baked with a rich, toasted coconut crust and dusted with powdered sugar. As you enjoy this traditional breakfast favorite, your guide will introduce the deep-rooted conventual pastry traditions that shaped Portuguese baking history.
