Why we recommend it
Talho Capixaba is a bakery, deli and café on Avenida Ataulfo de Paiva in Leblon, with a second shop on Rua Marquês de São Vicente in Gávea. CNN Brasil described the Leblon shop as a popular spot with tables on the pavement.
Bread is the foundation. A 2021 CNN Brasil guide to breakfast in Rio reported that the bakery produced 25 types of bread every day, with its baguette au levain as the signature loaf. The same guide described the Talho Completo breakfast, a generous set that brings together bread, pastries, cheese, cold cuts, honey, jam, butter, two hot drinks, two juices and papaya, designed for sharing. The menu also takes in savoury pastries, sandwiches, filled tapiocas and cakes, so it works for a quick coffee or a full meal.
Beyond the café, the shop is a deli, and the official website promotes its boards and catering for events, which can be ordered for gatherings. Both shops have WhatsApp lines for orders, and in 2021 CNN Brasil reported delivery until 21:00 from Leblon and 22:00 from Gávea, a useful option for anyone staying in an apartment nearby. With 25 breads a day, it is also a good place to pick up a loaf and some deli products for a self-catered meal.
The official website lists the Leblon shop on +55 21 2512-8760 and the Gávea shop on +55 21 2422-1270, and has the current menu. Opening hours are not published there; CNN Brasil's 2021 guide gave 07:00 to 20:00 every day, which suggests it is an early-opening option, but confirm before making a special trip.
Talho Capixaba suits anyone staying in Leblon or Ipanema who wants a dependable breakfast or a stop for bread and coffee during the day. The combination of bakery, deli and café means there is something for both a light snack and a large shared breakfast.
Leblon is also home to Oro, Felipe Bronze's two-Michelin-star restaurant on Avenida General San Martin, and the Leblon branch of Ocyá, so the neighbourhood is a good base for food lovers.
The Gávea shop, on Rua Marquês de São Vicente, offers the same bakery and has its own WhatsApp line for orders, which is useful for visitors staying in that neighbourhood.
