Brazil's most-requested flavour combination: shredded chicken folded through soft, tangy melted cheese, sealed in crisp pastel pastry. Rich, gooey and completely addictive.
Frango com queijo is a Brazilian institution – it goes on pizza, in coxinhas and, best of all, inside a pastel. We fold seasoned shredded chicken through generous melted cheese that turns silky in the fryer, turning a simple snack into something genuinely indulgent.
This is the flavour our staff recommend most often to first-time visitors, and the one guests come back for after events downtown. If you have only ever eaten a plain chicken pastel, this is the upgrade – creamy centre, crackling shell, no heat at all, so it works for kids too.
The melted cheese stays smooth and pourable rather than splitting or turning oily when fried, coating the chicken so every bite is creamy rather than dry. Eat it hot, within a minute or two of collecting it, for the best texture contrast.

“We came in during a special event and tried the limited-time flavours like Chicken & Cheese and Cheese & Maple Bacon — incredible. They stayed crispy and not greasy even after a short walk. So much better than the usual fast food.”

“The staff took the time to explain all the pastel flavours and made recommendations for us first-timers. Great vegetarian options too. I'll be back regularly for take-out on workdays in the core.”

Downtown London guest
“The pastéis are crispy and perfectly fried, the fillings are generous and every ingredient tastes fresh. The staff are so friendly — it really feels like a taste of Brazil right in downtown London.”

Seasoned shredded chicken folded with melted cheese, sealed in our signature thin pastel pastry and fried to order until golden and crisp.
Not at all – it is rich and mild, which makes it one of our most popular choices for children and for anyone new to Brazilian food.
