I went in for a late brunch and couldn’t have made a better choice! I ordered an espresso tonic, a glass of kombucha, and the chicken sandwich—everything was fresh, flavorful, and really well-prepared. Despite the place being packed, my order came out in just a few minutes. Great vibe, fast service, and delicious food!

Very good food and quantity for the price, they have specialty coffee with a nice variety - v60, filter and brew if i remember well and the taste was good - one could feel the notes quite well. Would’ve loved if the banana bread wasn’t too crumbly but the portion was quite big.
Ioana D — Google review
One of the best cafes in Madeira, it's as simple as that. The food is outstanding, the service excellent and it's stylish as hell. Finally it's also a bargain. The prices could be a lot higher for what comes out of the kitchen here. One of the menu options I recommend is the beetroot humus on artisan toast, which is served with a superb salad and topped with feta cheese and seeds. Flavours are superb. This cafe is a must visit if you're in Madeira.

Artsy place, yummy food, cozy atmosphere.. What else would you need? On the other side there is a store full of beautiful art pieces, postacards, paintings and many more. Perfect for a comfy brunch 🎨

As I am Vegan I heard good things about this place and usually I am not one to leave a bad review but I was quite disappointed by this place. We went to their other location and it was so amazing but this did not compare. We were sitting near the kitchen so we overheard they made a mistake in our order after we were already waiting for 15 - 20 mins and they didn't even inform us. Overall we waited around 25 minutes for an avo toast and a wrap and they were both pretty average, not much taste to them and not very big portion. The juice was really nice but I would recommend their other location over this one.
Flora S — Google review
★★★☆☆ Nice atmosphere, but a few letdowns Art Food Corner has a lovely and well-designed space with a great vibe, definitely the highlight of the visit. Unfortunately, the coffee was average, around 3-star quality, and by 12 pm they still didn’t have any pastries available. It might have been a delivery issue, but it was a bit disappointing. A promising spot with potential, but the experience didn’t fully deliver this time.

A great cafe in the heart of Funchal. It's a cozy, clean space where you can admire the art while feasting on a beautiful, delicious dish. The avocado toast and the hummus salad plate are two dishes we tried and recommend, as well as the macchiato. Plus, there's an art gallery/shop located in the back you can check out, which is very fun!

At A Queijadaria Gourmet - Fábrica, the experience is a delightful journey into the world of Portuguese pastries. Visitors often indulge in simple yet satisfying toasts topped with cheese or ham, alongside traditional treats like the creamy requeijão-filled Queijada and the iconic Pastel de Nata.
(Translated by Google) The cheesecakes and chocolates are great. Congratulations!! (Original) As queijadas e os chocolates são óptimos. Parabéns !!
Ana C — Google review
We absolutely love these queijadas. The first time we tried them was at the Christmas market in Funchal, and they’re honestly the best you’ll find anywhere on Madeira. They’re handmade, with fantastic quality and care. We’ve come back to Madeira and bought them straight from the factory this time, so we can take some home to England as souvenirs. Well done!

(Translated by Google) I went to get the cheesecakes from the factory after seeing them on the website. They were still warm. I loved all the flavors but my favorites were lemon, passion fruit and pitanga, really delicious. You can taste the regional fruit. I recommend them.

Boutique Lido is a small coffee shop in Funchal that is popular for its Portuguese cakes, ice cream and sandwiches. The cafe has got it all, with good selections of cakes and pastries as well as excellent espresso. The cafe also has lovely people working there, who are known for their Pastel de Nata (custard tart) which are some of the best around. This little gem of Funchal deserves a visit if you're in the area.
This is a lovely place for breakfast and desserts. The outdoor seating is peaceful and the service was quick and friendly. The food was delicious and was a great way to start the day. The orange juice was freshly squeezed and really refreshing and the tea was a large portion. The 'original' breakfast option I felt was great value for money ☀️

Really good coffee place. Highly recommend to get either breakfast, brunch of something sweet with coffee. Staff is very kind and show skill. The cakes are really good and tasty too, and for a great price. You can try the local Madeira cheesecake here! You can sit inside or outside. In the sun or shadow. Area is slightly busy but calm enough. Thank you!

Alison R — Google review
A delightful cafe and bakery walking distance from resorts district. Spacious seating inside and outside. Fantastic service. I didn’t try their cakes but they look mouth watering. This place is also open early on Sunday when most other cafes are either closed or open late. A warning though - I was there Sunday morning and this swarm of 15-20 runners came and the place got extremely busy all of a sudden. As is the custom in Portugal - you eat/drink first and pay later. An issue, however, became that now there was a line up to pay when you wanted to leave! And then a customer also came a bit upset that he was waiting for his coffee for 20 mins. And there is only main person who takes the orders and payments. So, if it’s busy, get the payment out of the way when you’re ordering so you can leave whenever you want without delay. Clean washrooms. Ever since I discovered this place, I came everyday during our stay in Funchal. Highly recommended!

Avista Restaurant, located within Les Suites at Cliff Bay, offers a unique dining experience with its Mediterranean and Asian cuisine overseen by chef Benoit Sinthon. The restaurant's century-old house setting provides a charming backdrop for enjoying the diverse menu options, including a la carte dishes designed for sharing and bistro-style tasting menus. With its Michelin-starred quality and stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean, Avista is celebrated as one of Funchal's top dining destinations.
Great food at a great location served by a more then helpfull and friendly staff. Come early for the best seating. We had a vegi and a normal experience with a wine pairing and 2 cocktails. The kitchen has your typical Michelin small dishes with flavors from the island, Portugal and the Mediterranean with some pinches of Asia. All well balanced and we went home stuffed with a smile on our faces.

We came to Avista for lunch and had a lovely experience. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, and the setting is truly stunning with a superb view that makes the meal even more special. Service was attentive and professional, though we did find the warmth and friendliness a little less than what we’ve enjoyed at some other restaurants in Madeira. Overall, a great spot for a quality lunch with an unbeatable view.

Our dinner at Avista Mediterranean was the perfect finale to our Madeira trip! The setting is absolutely breathtaking—perched above the ocean with sunset views that feel straight out of a dream. The food was exceptional, beautifully presented, and full of flavor, perfectly matching the stunning scenery. But what truly made the experience unforgettable was the wonderful staff. They went above and beyond when I accidentally left my purse—with my heart medication inside—at the restaurant. They acted so quickly and kindly to make sure I got it back just in time before my flight. I’m beyond grateful for their care and professionalism. If you’re ever in Funchal, don’t miss Avista—not just for the view and the food, but for the people who make it truly special. 🌅💛

A beautiful position, we enjoyed cocktails before our meal with wonderful views. The food was typical for a Michelin restaurant, tasty but small portions. The ambience was great. We had booked a table for 2 of us at 7pm, our first course came at 8pm and our main course at 9pm. The waiter apologised for the delay but told us there were more affluent customers to be served first. Certainly there were people who had come in after us and were on their dessert before we had our main course. They deducted the cost of 2 glasses of wine for the delay. I appreciate their honesty although I am not sure how they measured affluence. Don't think we will go back, a shame really as a lovely place

Almost the best supermarket on the island. It also deserves to be upgraded to 2 floors. It has almost everything. The only problem is that the shelves are too close to each other which makes it difficult to move around them.

Gosto de fazer compras neste supermercado. Clean, spacious, satisfying selection- especially in the health food section- and helpful staff. Today, a cashier volunteered information on how to take advantage of savings using the machine at the entrance- I had no idea! Muito obrigada! I especially love the seasonal offers on beautiful cast iron pans. I even scored a deal on a piece of furniture. É um prazer.

Padaria Pastelaria Mariazinha is a beloved local bakery and coffee shop where many locals start their mornings after a refreshing run by the water. The place offers delicious Portuguese coffee, with the Chinesa being a popular choice, along with an array of delectable baked goods. Visitors can savor local specialties like the sweet cheese pastry Queijada or indulge in the classic Pastel de Nata.
Delicious breakfast for a small price. In summer 2025 I paid only 9€ for 2 latte, 2 baguettes with egg/ham/cheese/salad and a sweet dessert. You can have lunch here, too. I will definitely try that out and come back.

Bakery
Opan is a popular bakery chain in Madeira, with multiple branches around the city, including one on Avenida Do Mar 16 in Funchal. Despite not being a hidden gem, it offers delicious and affordable pastries that are a must-try while visiting Madeira. The bakery is frequented by locals and tourists alike, serving natural orange juice, sandwiches, coffee, and top-quality pastries at very reasonable prices.
Just discovered this bakery a few meters from the hotel I am staying and it’s awesome. It has a lot of options for breakfast, snacks and coffees and juices. Prices are fair and options are excellent.

A good bakery, with nice atmosphere and a wide selection of cakes, breads and pastries at a fair price. The taste of the pastries was okay, but I had better ones in other places (I tried the Queijada and the Tarte de Lima, not all the rest) They lose 1 star mainly on communication, they do display all of their prices, available for all to check, but on a paper on the wall, not in front of each pastry and bread. So I checked the paper first, saw their prices were fair (many places not displaying place mean they are trying to rob their customers, but not this place fortunately!) and went to buy what I wanted. Other issue, they do not write what the name of their cakes and pastries, you need to ask or need to describe what you want... They speak good english but still would be much easier to just read the name of what you want, and everybody would have their task easier.

First of all very unwelcoming towards tourists. English communication is not possible, but even worse is that these people’s attitude and body language when you’re trying to communicate is like “not again a tourist, please don’t talk to me, and let this conversation be over very soon”. Second of all I forgot to take a ticket with a number, which you’ve got to take before you wait in line. The outcome was that when it was my turn, they asked me to take a ticket first and wait in line again. Unfortunately I can’t be positve of the food anymore because this was service-wise a very bad experience.

As I see it, not the best bakery in Madeira, it is just ok, not sure if I just had bad luck. Coffee was ok, queijadas didnt taste that great, it felt like it was laying there for days. I think Penha d'Aguia or Pão & Companhia are better options if you want to drink a coffe and have a nice traditional cake.

An excellent bakery in the center of Funchal where my wife and I had breakfast almost every day while staying in an apartment nearby. We would usually start with a natural orange juice, followed by a sandwich, coffee and finally one of the pastries. Everything delicious, and the pastries really top quality. Very affordable prices, a lot of clients all the time, notably locals - always an indication of a good quality.

I’ve had Portuguese egg tarts in many places around the world and three times elsewhere in Madeira, but this is THE BEST egg tart I’ve ever tried! If you’re here for the first time - try their traditional and passion fruit egg tart. They will blow your mind. I did not take a photo of the passion fruit tart, as we almost immediately finished it..

We stayed for dinner because menu looked attractive and we were living just above. They way how everything looked we expected higher than average quality of food and service. Didn't happened. We ordered file of Black Scabbard fish and pasta with shrimps. Fish was testy, but portion was extremely! small. Pasta wasn't the best one. On a positive side - Sangria was good and Tapas quite testy. So, the total experience was average and I would not recommend this restaurant for dinner. There are dozens other choices around.

We came here pretty much every day during the week we stayed in Funchal. Mainly because it was super convenient (Airbnb was 30 seconds away from here) and Google maps ratings were good. I can now confidently say that this place is just great. Very nice selection of pastries (we didn't have a single one that wasn't very good). Solid omelettes and toasts. Good coffee and excellent fresh orange juice. On top of that, very good service and good atmosphere inside. Didn't take too many pictures but definitely recommend this place.

Recommended by a friend to try out the pastel de nata. It was warm and crispy on the inside, creamy for the custard. It was perfectly cooked but too sweet for me. Tried other bakery items.

We stayed in an apartment just upstairs from this bakery for 1 week and went for breakfast and coffee every single day. This place is A-MA-ZING! All the baked goods are delicious and the vibe to eat there is great. Even their salads and cooked omelettes are great also. You can sit right next to where the bakers are making their next batch of croissants or bread-rolls. Would recommend. As I really want this place to succeed, a couple points of improvement. The waitresses try their hardest to get your order to you as quick as possible, however their processes can be inefficient. Sometimes they insist on taking your order at the counter, and then only paying after you have eaten. That means customers line up at the counter twice and can make for a long line at times. They will generally take 1 order at the counter at a time, fulfil that order and deliver to the table before taking the next order. Perhaps if there are a few customers waiting to order they could take all the orders first, have everyone sit, and then fulfil all the orders together. That being said, we were on holidays and were more than happy to wait. We loved this place so much!

The pastries are nice and the coffee is good, but the service needs improvement. When requesting a steak sandwich they will not make it with gluten free bread (even though they stock this bread), not a big deal but slightly strange, the steak sandwich is slightly too salty with too much gristle in the meat. When I asked for a take away cup for my coffee as I had to leave unexpectedly, they charged €0.14 for it. Considering we were a group who eaten, it surprises me to nit pick for a cup, hence this review. The customer service was the worst aspect, not very welcoming, tense, and unaccomodating. Overall the food was good (not amazing) but the service let it down.

The friendly staff adds to the inviting atmosphere, making it an ideal place to start the day with family or friends.
5 star place without a doubt. Food arrives instantly. Excellent value for money, omelette for 2.80 EUR with a choice of bread. Coffees are great and the sweets are also a must try. We came here several times, pastel de nata wasn't the same quality and it's not the best on the island. But the place is an excellent choice for breakfast regardless.

High prices and medium quality. Pastel de nata quote blend, cakes and capuccino too sweet. Higher prices with lower quality than average than other pastry.

Great shop opens bright and early at 7am so we stopped by before we headed out for our hike. You get all kinds of baked goods, Sandwiches & pastries along with deserts. It’s a nice neighborhood sit down spot or you can grab and go.

Very nice pastry/bread shop! We went there for lunch which was very good and quite cheap! The staff was friendly and spoke English well. The pastries itself also looked delicious, couldn't stop myself from ordering one or two for later.

We can't imagine our morning without a cup of coffee. Luckily we stayed not far from this pastry shop. And we could enjoy the fresh cakes and strong coffee our mornings. There were an experienced and attentive staff. Perfect place to visit with your family or friends.

We did not stayed at the hotel. We only used the bakery and coffee. We ate multiple times here, sandwiches are good, pastry is very good, coffee is not for our taste, but is expected because is not an speciality coffee. Waiter was really nice and with a good english.

Excellent cup of coffee for a traditional price (below 2 euro). Amazing pastry to choose from and on top of it all, a comfortable terras with a few seats with sea view. Service was given with a smile and a joke. We had a refill after our first coffee;)

It's a great place to grab a sweet snack. Pastry is good and I highly recommend the "filled plamiers" Space is well decorated and clean. It gets three stars because the staff is not the best, looks like they really are making an effort and are not friendly.

I'm very sorry to give a low score, as we had really high expectations. We visited one day to buy some bread and pastries, which were absolutely amazing. Another day we came for breakfast, which didn't go great at all. Espresso is good, but cappuccino is very disappointing. Loads of milk that doesn't even remotely have any coffee taste. The ham and cheese toast was the worst. It had zero butter, which made it terribly dry. We had to cut off the crust. We also ordered waffles with strawberry jam, whipped cream and ich cream and got a waffle without the jam, which was pretty dry.  When i asked about it, the simply told me they didn't have any jam or fruit. After we insisted, I got some Nutella instead .

Good bakery, however croissants looks a bit dry (not like traditional very moist yellow croissants). I got paõ de Deus and it was delicious and huge :)

This is an absolute must visit!!! The pastries are to die for, the coffee was excellent too, the location, personnel, the building was just lovely. And to top that off, the price was great too! We had two dopios and a few desserts for under 10€ for two people. Highly recommend

The bakery is known for its delicious pasteis de nata and fresh sandwiches. Despite its small size, the bakery has garnered praise for its friendly staff and great coffee offerings.
Immaculately morning stop! As a bakery enthusiast they are always a first stop abroad and this one is the best of the best. High quality pastries, quick service. The nata was amazing and would be my top rec! Everything priced well. 2 nata, 1 croissant and 1 spinach pocket were only €5.

Great spot for coffee and pasta del nata. Amble down Santa Maria then arrive upon this small cafe with a few tables outside. Watch the world go by

Coffee in the UK is mostly disappointing. Rubbish chain places which are expensive and serve huge measures, or milky, syrupy stuff for people that don't like coffee. Southern Europe does coffee properly. Espresso, or short coffees, black or white. That's it. No flat whites, lattes, or frappacinos. This place is great, and all the bread and pastries look amazing.
Alex B — Google review
Small local pastry shop with a big set of pastries and home made breads. It is placed quite centrally. The shop is quite small but it offers lovely local flavours. I suggest to come here since you can find friendly people working in this place. We had 2 pasteis de nata and 2 cappuccino for 3,30 euro. I liked it so much and come back for sure!

Super tasty, not a fancy bakery or anything. But! Good coffee, a nice waiter and a great idea if pickniking by the ocean is something you enjoy doing. We recommend the Madeira style cheesecake as well as the rice cake that looks like a brioche :D

Absolutely delicious pastries, very friendly staff with good knowledge of English who will answer all your questions - and the prices are so cheap! All the locals seem to come here, thank you for amazing pastries and cappuccinos!
Amin A — Google review
Freshly baked deliciousness and great coffee. Came here several mornings for breakfast. Many locals come in the morning for a Bica (espresso) and a chat - you'll get a lovely cultural experience. We used to go at 7am before our day out on hikes. This is when the bakery is freshly stocked but apparently it's open 24/7. You can choose from a selection of sweet pastries, rolls, bread, pasteis de nata (amazing!) And they will also make a fresh sandwich for you. A must go - super friendly staff too. Very reasonably priced too!
