  • 5. Luiz da Rocha

    $

    This Beja institution, which first opened its doors in 1893, serves great coffee and conventuais, sweets made according to recipes from local convents. In a pedestrian-only area just outside the city walls, it's conveniently located next to a few hotels and offers far better breakfasts, including delicious torradas (simple white toast with butter). Don't be surprised if you're the only tourist in the ground-floor dining room; the friendly barman may try his (rusty) English on you.

    A few minutes from Igreja de São Francisco you'll find this pastry shop specializing in regional sweets.

The specialty is pão de rala, a delicious cake combining egg yolks, almonds, sugar, and lemon zest.
