About
Casa Piriquita, founded in 1862 in the picturesque town of Sintra, is a beloved Portuguese bakery that has delighted locals and tourists for over 160 years. Known for its classic Queijadas de Sintra, flaky pastel pillows called Travesseiros, and a wide range of traditional sweets such as Nozes Douradas and Pastéis de Sintra, Casa Piriquita offers a taste of Portuguese pastry heritage. With four shops—two in Sintra, one in Lisbon on Avenida de Roma, and another on the iconic Praça do Comércio—visitors can explore beautifully crafted confections displayed in vibrant storefronts while enjoying the warm, family‑run atmosphere that has defined the brand since its inception.
