Bakeries in Lisbon
Lisbon is the city of the pastel de nata. The custard tart has become a global export, and its two rival birthplaces — Pastéis de Belém (since 1837) and Manteigaria in Chiado — still draw daily queues. Beyond the nata, Lisbon's broader pastry culture runs deep, with Portuguese bolo-rei, pão-de-ló, and confeitaria traditions that predate almost every other European pastry city.
