While many know us for our coffee, the soul of Copenhagen Coffee Lab in Lisbon resides in the back of our Castilho café. This is our central bakery—the hub where our master bakers work through the night to provide fresh, artisan bread for all our locations across the city.
When you visit us at Castilho, you are at the source. You can smell the cardamom and cinnamon of our "Kanelsnegle" (cinnamon rolls) as they come out of the oven and feel the warmth of a loaf of sourdough that was shaped by hand just hours ago. We follow traditional Scandinavian baking methods, prioritizing slow fermentation, high-quality grains, and no shortcuts.
The Art of the Sourdough Loaf
Our bakers use a living starter and a high-hydration dough to create a loaf with a crunchy crust and a soft, airy crumb. It’s bread as it was meant to be.
Danish Pastry Heritage
We bring a piece of Copenhagen to Lisbon. Our pastries are laminated with care, resulting in buttery, flaky layers that pair perfectly with a sharp espresso.
