In Ovar
Nestled in the heart of Évora, Pastelaria Casinha do Pão de Ló is more than just a bakery; it’s a genuine slice of Portuguese tradition. For over eighty years, this unassuming little establishment has been perfecting the art of the pão de ló, a light and airy sponge cake that’s become a beloved symbol of the Alentejo region. It’s a place where time seems to slow down, and the aroma of freshly baked pastries fills the air.
What makes Casinha do Pão de Ló truly special is the simplicity and dedication of its bakers. They use only the finest, locally sourced ingredients – eggs, sugar, and a touch of lemon – to create a cake that’s incredibly delicate and surprisingly flavourful. Don’t just take our word for it; locals and visitors alike consistently rave about its melt-in-your-mouth texture and subtle sweetness. Alongside the pão de ló, they offer a selection of other traditional treats, including pastéis de nata and bolo de arroz, perfect for a mid-morning pequeno-almoço or an afternoon indulgence.
It’s easily accessible by autocarro from Évora’s main bus station, or a pleasant fifteen-minute walk from the historic centre. They welcome visitors throughout the day, offering a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. Come and experience a little piece of Portuguese heritage – and perhaps take a pão de ló home with you!
