Casa Piriquita travel guide

I went to PIRIQUITA twice while touring SINTRA😂 One for eating at place and second one is to go! Please don’t forget to get the ticket for waiting!! I lost my 2min for waiting because I didn’t know that😅 you can find Ticket next to door and it’s self cutting:-) I and my wife loved original Travesseiro and Broas with sweet potato paste among many kinds. Travesseiro has The original, Nutella and apple. Pls visit after touring SINTRA! Because you will be hungry!Dokyeom Kim (Derek)

Absolutely amazing! The flavours were indescribable. Despite how busy it was, the service was fast and efficient. Highly recommend if you want to try authentic, homemade pastries. Our tour guide recommended this place to us, and it did not disappoint!sara nazer

Loved every single pastry that the salesman picked out for me after i asked for his recommended selection ! I highly recommend this authentic bakery !! everything they sell is absolutely worth trying. The pastries are fresh, full of flavor, and you can really taste the tradition in every bite. What really stood out was the guy working there , he was helping so many tourists all by himself, even making the coffee too !! Honestly, I don’t understand how a place that busy and successful doesn’t have at least one more staff member to help him out on the takeaway section . It would definitely make the waiting time shorter. Unless, of course, keeping the line long is part of their strategy 😉 and honestly, with pastries that good, it might just be working! 😄Daan

Our stop here was my highlight of Sinatra! The pastries were out of this world! Every. Single. One. You can’t go wrong ordering here. We walked in and had to grab a ticket from the old school red machine. It did take some time to get served but that was fine by us as it gave us time to decide what we wanted. Our order consisted of: 2 travesseiros (traditional, almond- what they are known for), two queijadas da sapa(I think is what they are called- they are the other traditional pastry!), almond cake, and one chocolate truffle. All of them were phenomenal. I really enjoyed the travesseiro. This is a must stop when in the city. The best of the best in my opinion.Kenzie Winther

This is a place you don’t wanna miss out on your visit to Sintra. Situated in the bylanes of the historic centre, this place is heaven on earth. Travesserio pastry, their signature filled with Almond cream was exceptional. Thats what they are known for, they have options of apple and Nutella too. Their quiejadas, basically a cheese and cinnamon, well known in Sintra was also quite goodVinay Gajria
