Our Story

Welcome to Café Nova Vida Bakery

Where every pastry tells a story and every bite is a celebration of Portuguese tradition. Our journey began with a deep love for sharing the rich culinary heritage of Portugal with the Chatham-Kent community. For over 20 years, we’ve been proud to serve our guests through our sister ventures—Churrascaria Steakhouse & Grill and Four Diamond Catering—building a legacy rooted in flavor, hospitality, and family. Café Nova Vida Bakery was born from that same spirit. Inspired by our passion and guided by our commitment to quality, we’ve created a warm and inviting space where tradition meets taste. Here, you'll discover pastries, fresh-baked breads, and authentic flavors that bring a little piece of Portugal to your everyday moments.
