Café Central Portugais offers fast and friendly service with good coffee at an affordable price. The cozy atmosphere is mainly enjoyed by older Portuguese gentlemen who gather to play dominos, watch soccer, and chat. The café is reminiscent of traditional neighborhood tea houses. Visitors can enjoy a variety of Portuguese desserts such as "pastel de nata" and flan, along with coffee like "café com leite". The well-lit space with Portuguese news playing on televisions provides a welcoming environment. Customers can expect a warm reception from staff like Domingos, who may even offer a complimentary glass of Porto. The café feels like an authentic village spot, with many TV screens broadcasting football matches and a terrace that is perfect come spring and summer. The place is known for home cooking and a warm, respectful staff. Popular dishes include the Portuguese Cod and bacalhau grelhado, which can be asked for in advance. Visitors often find the food reminiscent of traditional family recipes, with some dishes tasting just like what a grandmother would make. The atmosphere is lively, with a friendly vibe and great service that makes guests feel at home. Remember to bring cash as the café is cash-only.
