Canela Bakery Reviews
The owner was super nice and friendly ...saw the ad off the highway and the pastries looked good we stopped in he gave us a free one and greeted me with smilesThe pastries was so good !!

We fell in love with Pastel de nata when we went to London and tried Cafe de Neda. After returning from the trip, we were on the hunt to find something similar here in the states. Canela bakery comes closest to London's place. Pro: Flaky crust and silky fillingNot too sweetNot eggy at all (unlike Teixeira's bakery)PriceCon:From the outside, the place looks like a bodega and doesn't look like a bakery. I think a little remodeling on the inside would make this place better.
