Forcado offers a wide range of pastéis de nata, including classics such as lemon, coffee, chocolate and speculoos, as well as raspberry, mojito, caramel and port cookie with vanilla cream. A range of cakes are made the old-fashioned way, just like in 1960s Portugal, to be enjoyed with their terrible hot chocolate! A gluten-free selection is also available. The store is spacious, uncluttered and bright... all signs of the Braz de Oliveira family's continuing success. The patriarch, Joaquim, is still here, looking good at 73.
