Crema's Take
“If you're willing to hunt through Chelsea Market for a custard tart that tastes like liquid gold, Joey Bats Natas delivers Portuguese pastéis de nata with a crispy, caramelized shell and impossibly creamy center that justifies the premium price. Beyond the traditional version, their rotating flavors like wild berry and blueberry elevate what could be a simple pastry into something genuinely crave-worthy. Grab one warm, skip the coffee if you need to, and understand why people come back for seconds.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu.
