Popped in for a little drink with my husband on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Alcoholic drinks were solid, very well made & hit the spot! Service was attentive & friendly. Laid back atmosphere. Will be back when we have more time to enjoy more drinks & tapas. But so happy they are back & with an even better offering!

Solid sandwich! Got the Saint Miguel, not too saucy & good portion for 10$ :)
Also good music & atmosphere!

What a fantastic sandwich. The bread, crispy, floury & timeless. The steak & blue cheese enhanced by some house sauce that is obviously a well kept secret. Reasonably priced. Go try it!

Just as cosy as the old Shaika's. It has a bigger menu. Different but amazing sandwiches on Portuguese extremely fresh buns, a little crispy on the outside.
The marinated pork sandwich was so delicious. We also had The Sherbrooke, ham, goat cheese & avocado, so good. We shared a grilled veggie plate & it was very tasty. We will definitely be going back to try their desserts they looked so fresh, especially the Natas😋
I'm so happy it has reopened.

We went this morning with our dog to grab some brunch & sit on the terrace. The food was all amazing; we loved the Portuguese bread & the americano coffee! Its very good quality for very reasonable prices, & still has a lot of the same charm it used to!

I had the most delicious Harvard sandwich, it comes with a side of salad! The inside & outdoor terrace is lovely! You feel very welcomed when you walk in.
