Wonderful little bakery an easy and safe walk from the local train station. Firstly the inviting smell once inside and friendly service, including English friendly. I had the croque and it was sensational, is this the best I've had 🤔 I'd say a resounding yes! The sourness if the bread is spot on, the ham is the right kind without the strong flavour and paired with the right amount of cheese. The coffee is quite good as well, good standard flavour from Brazilian coffee.
The food and coffee were excellent, and the staff member at the front door was very friendly and polite, creating a welcoming atmosphere. However, the service could be improved, as it felt a bit slow and inattentive despite having enough team members on duty. One suggestion for improvement: when deliveries arrive, particularly flour, it might be better to store it out of sight to avoid creating flour dust while guests are enjoying their meals. Thank you for the experience, and I hope my feedback helps in making this lovely place even better! We'll definitely be back specially to eat the focaccia!
Frequento a Slow faz tempo. Melhor cinamon roll da cidade com certeza. Lá tb é onde compro o pão semente, minha pasta de grão de bico. Mas a Slow funciona não só como um lugar para comprar pães e afins e levar pra casa mas tb sentar e degustar as gostosuras. Funciona desde um café da manhã gostoso ou mesmo almoço. Indico e sou muito fã.
Raquel que atende na loja e maravilhosaaaaa! Indico muito comprar lá. Todo veio embalado Sustentavel. Hj experimento o vinho
