Delicious Brazilian comfort food. Wonderful bakery. They have lunch plates during the week. Drive here anytime I visit Charlotte, my Brazilian roommate discovered her home away from home.

A Great place to have that nice afternoon coffee w/ cheese-bread from Brazil that we love so much! Food is great! The Brazilian Flan is something to dye for! It’s so great that every time I can, I take a full one home w/ me!

Amazing bakery! I truly felt like I was back in Brazil. Hands down the best Brazilian bakery I’ve been to in the U.S.! The staff were incredibly friendly and made sure we had a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!

This place is incredible. I ordered 20 Pastéis de Belém for Thanksgiving and they were a hit. I was so grateful that they were open on Thanksgiving morning that I could pick them up. Rui and Maria Lu are the kindest owners. Rui is from Portugal and Maria Lu is from Brazil. I love that they have items from both countries. The Pastéis de Belém that we had was just as good as the ones we had in Portugal. I am shocked by some of these reviews about their rudeness when the owners were two of of the kindest, friendliest people, I had ever met.

Amazing little Brazilian spot, great for coffee, breakfast sandwiches, authentic pasteries, and of course those amazing little cheese bread balls everyone loves at Brazilian steakhouses. The owners are extremely nice and you can tell it's a nice little tight knit community of regulars that come to the shop. Authentic empanadas, coxinha (croquette basically), amazing custard tarts.. give this place a try. It's tucked away in a small shopping center behind stacks pancakes in Matthews. Parking can get a little packed but I've still never had an issues getting a spot.

That’s the best brazilian bakery in USA!! Everything is very fresh and the place is very cozy. Easy parking there. They offer brazilian lunch (very healthy by the way). The price are excellent. And the servers are very friendly and professional. I highly recommend this bakery.

What a nice experience again with Tropical Bakery. I ordered all the Brazilian/portuguese favorites from the bakery and then had some picanha for lunch. The owner and staff were very friendly and just wish we could come here more often. We drive around an hour to get here from Shelby, NC. Can’t wait to get back here again. Life is good today!

Love to come here occasionally for a delicious and inexpensive Brazilian lunch . The staff is always cheerful and helpful with any questions I may have. I don't have a lot of experience trying Brazilian food but their dishes all seem familiar and their deserts are excellent. They share a very busy parking lot but if you come closer to the restaurant they have a few spots that are reserved just for them.

I took my kids to get some Brazilian snacks, coxinha, pastels and brigadeiro. Food was perfect, the employees were kind and friendly. The restaurant was clean, they had Brazilian shows playing on the tv. Lots of families with their kids eating there. I forgot my purse there. I went back later after I realized I didn’t have it to see if I forgot it there.They had set my purse aside and returned it to me, everything was in it. I had a little anxiety attack when I noticed I had left my purse somewhere in Charlotte. I am so thankful for the honesty of the employees that held on to my purse. Thank you so much for the amazing food, good atmosphere and for your honesty!
