This place is by far in my top 3 spots for having a yummy breakfast in Beira. You can never go wrong with their freshly baked natas, sandwiches and their many different Portuguese pastries which are readily available! Its a little hidden so its not too wasy to spot but Google maps does the trick. Do make it a point to stop by next time you're in the beautiful "Edge" city of Beira.
