Grandma Berta's House is much more than a store. It's a house full of craft products and 100% portuguese, combined with a cafetaria servisse to remind the snacks served at home of our grandparents. Grandma Berta's House appears as a tribute to Grandma Berta that existed in our family. In her backyard it was usual to see painted clay pots of red with white polka dots, painted by her husband Eduardo (the "bald" Grandfather). The furniture that makes up our space come from another grandmother, Isabel. And the walls?! Ah... the walls are dressed up in family photographs tha tell real stories passed at the old times. Here you find a little bit of the best products made in our country. Crafts, soaps, ceramics, needlework, stationery, cans, biscuits and more... Behind the counter you'll find us... granddaughter Ana and Andreia great-granddaughter. We want you to feel at home, revisit memories, traditions and flavors of other times. Welcome to Casa da Avó Berta!
