If you're into the vintage side, the actual antiques and old tins are the draw, not the espresso. Go on a weekday afternoon when it's quieter and skip the weekend crowds. Prices felt steep for what you get.

honestly the coffee there is fine but not the reason to go. i went on a tuesday morning and it was mostly people filming reels. if u want actual good coffee in SP try the places around Vila Madalena instead, cheaper too. expect to pay around R$18-25 for a flat white at these trendy spots now. Vintage is more of a vibe stop than a coffee destination imo

Fair take, though I'd say the pastries are the real reason to bother. Just don't go expecting a quiet cup.

The pastries are good but I'd put the pão de queijo at Padaria Santa Efigênia above them, and it's a third of the price.

yeah the pastries carry it, the cinnamon roll especially. just budget for it, a coffee and pastry there runs close to R$50 now which adds up fast. go before 10am if you actually want a seat.

Where to find Novo Sabor in Sao Paulo 2026?

I'm visiting Sao Paulo next month and a friend keeps telling me to try Novo Sabor. Where exactly is it and do I need to book ahead? Any idea what a meal there runs these days?

Worth knowing it's a buffet by weight at lunch (por quilo), so you pay for what you take and it's easy to eat light. At dinner it flips to a la carte and the bill climbs fast. Check the unit's hours on Google before you go, some close between lunch and dinner.

yeah the por quilo thing trips people up, watch the scale at the end though, they weigh the plate with leftovers and all. also many units charge by weight only until 3pm or so, after that it's full a la carte

Most units close 2 to 4 on weekdays, so plan around that.

if ur friend means the per-kilo buffet style place, go at lunch on a weekday, it's cheaper and less chaotic. dinner is a la carte and runs higher. check if they take reserva on the app before u trek across town, some units only do walk-in.

good call on checking the app first, some units only take reserva by phone and the line is brutal at peak

the moema spot on alameda dos maracatins is the one i'd aim for, easier to get a table and the feijoada at lunch is the move. go before 1pm or you're waiting. cash and pix get you a small discount at some units
