The food is always fresh, full of flavour and clearly made with care. One highlight is the pastel de nata cake, absolutely divine and not to be missed, Whether you’re popping in for a quick bite or a coffee and a cake, it’s consistently a great experience. Definitely one of the best spots in town.

Really good food. Good pricing. Welcoming staff. The chicken sandwich was amazing. The after dinner Poncha is a treat. The cherry dessert and the coconut cake are really good.

I love this hidden gem! If you are looking for homemade cakes or a taste of Portugal - this is the place to visit. The owners are amazing - always welcoming and friendly. I had the 'Madeira Special', which is a pork sandwich. They make everything fresh and honestly this is the best sandwich I have ever eaten in King's Lynn. Definitely worth a visit, especially if you want to support local businesses and good quality food and drinks.

Amazing meal this afternoon at picapau! Very friendly welcoming atmosphere went through the menu with us to make sure we each got something we would love, lovely outdoor and indoor seating I got the tuna salad which had been got fresh from the market that morning, it was absolutely delicious perfectly cooked with beautiful flavours, my partner got the octopus which was equally as stunning The coffee is also really good matched my pallette perfectly, we got a cake to go as we were too stuffed but they looked too good!

One of our favourite places to eat & certainly the one we visit the most. Don't be fooled by it looking like a cafe. They serve amazing food and the owners are so friendly. They often do special dishes at weekends as well. It feels like you are in a lovely cafe abroad somewhere when you are there.

A cute small cafe, homely and inviting. A taste of Portugal that can’t be missed. This morning we went for a coffee and pastéis de nata (those little custard tarts) and both were delicious. Authentic, fair prices and even the tv and music make you feel like you went away for half an hour! Not sure what the wonderful smell was but whatever they were preparing for lunch was definitely tempting. Home cooked at the bar! Definitely a must try and great coffee, worth supporting a local business instead of the usual chains too!

This place is amazing. And the lady, Crisrina is super lovely. Being portuguese I was really happy to find this place, because I was working in town for several weeks and it felt good to have some food that transported me home.
