Why it's worth checking out

Tuga Pastries is a bakery in Coogee, Sydney, centred on Portuguese-style baking and its signature pastel de nata. The website describes these as crisp, layered pastries with a smooth custard centre, made by hand and pressed daily. Alongside the tarts, the range includes pastries, cakes, bread, savoury baking, boxes and seasonal products.

The business has a family history reaching back to Portugal. Tuga’s pastry recipes were brought to Australia by Gus Ferreria and his family, who opened their first Portuguese cake shop in Bondi Beach in 1994. The website says Gus’s son Diogo continued the business in 2016, with the nata still made by hand according to the family’s village recipe.

Tuga’s website lists bakery and café locations in Clovelly and Alexandria, and refers to eating in, cakes ordered for occasions and weekend specials. Customer feedback also mentions viennoiserie, savoury danish and pies, making it a practical stop for more than just a sweet pastry. It suits a solo coffee-and-pastry visit, a relaxed catch-up or picking up a box to share. Tuga Pastries holds a 4.5 Google rating from 370 reviews.
