We enjoyed this experience so much! 2-3 people per batch so everyone had the chance to participate and we had plenty to take home afterwards! Lovely kitchen setting tucked off the Main Street where we got off the tram from the city center.

We joined Miguel’s pastel de nata cooking class as a family, along with a couple of friends, while traveling from abroad. Miguel was fun, didactic, interactive, and very knowledgeable, and we all enjoyed the experience immensely. Even better, the pastel de natas turned out surprisingly great! I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a small, personalized, and well-taught hands-on experience in Portugal.

This pastel de nata baking class was such a highlight of my time in Lisbon. The instructor was incredibly kind, funny, and made the class enjoyable from start to finish. The experience was hands-on, easy to follow, and full of laughs. Best of all, the pastéis de nata we made were absolutely delicious! I’d highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Lisbon who wants a fun, interactive, and tasty experience.

Take it from a Portuguese

Victor_S, Nov 2025

This was my second time taking the pastéis de nata baking class, and it was just as fantastic as the first! The chef was clear, patient, and incredibly interactive, guiding us step-by-step through the process and making it easy and fun to follow along. The best part is enjoying your own fresh, warm pastéis de nata at the end—truly better than anything you can buy in a store or bakery. And I should know, I’m Portuguese! A fun, delicious, and memorable experience every time. Highly recommended

Amazing experience

Fun & Delicious: Pastéis Cooking Class

Kristine_R, Sept 2025

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We took a two-hour cooking class to learn how to make pastéis, and it was such a fun experience! The chef was incredibly personable and made the class easy to follow with clear, step-by-step directions. He created a welcoming atmosphere that made the time fly by. It was the perfect mix of learning, hands-on fun, and of course — delicious results. I would definitely recommend this class for couples, friends, or really anyone interested in Portuguese cuisine. I’d happily go back and do it again myself!

The best way to try pasteis de nata!

Scott_P, Sept 2025

This is a great activity that can be done in a few hours. Miguel is a fantastic teacher and you leave with know-how to make pasteis de nata, but also extras to eat in the days after your class!

Julie_R, Aug 2025

This was great fun. I really don’t have very many culinary skills when it come to making pastry but our host made is fun and easy. Can’t believe how well they turned out. Hoping the recipe can be sent to us so we can practice when we get home.

What a treat!

Andrea_E, May 2025

Over my 10 days in Lisbon area, I tried the custard tarts from the original/famous places. The ones we baked were my favorite of the trip. Chef Miguel knows what he's doing. The class was the perfect amount of time. Thank you for this great experience!

Excellent!

Filomena_F, Mar 2025

He was so personable and told us all the whys behind why you do the steps you do when making the natas. We are confident leaving this class that we can make it ourselves. It was also pouring cats and dogs outside and he offered his umbrella to us so we wouldn’t get soaked.
