São Paulo never stops: all those workaholics and 24-hour party people clearly need to go somewhere to satisfy their late night/early morning cravings. Luckily, the Bella Paulista looks after each and every one of them like a loving mother.

Centrally located and always open, the bakery lures its diverse clientele in with cups of coffee and a breakfast buffet heaving with fruit, yogurt, juice and, of course, all kinds of bread. There’s another buffet at dinnertime, which offers a wide variety of soups at a friendly price.

The Bella Paulista also sells those late night essentials—wine, chocolate-walnut brownies… At three in the morning, it’s manna from heaven.
