“this is such a fabulous spot with the best views over the valley! the vegan options are limited but i was so pleased to discover they had soya milk for coffees and a vegan lemon cake. perfect at the end of our walk.”

“Beautiful little stop off for coffee and the most delicious home made cake. The woman behind the bar was lovely.

Way better pricing for tourists. I recommend ?”

“Went there to have a little drink. Ordered a beer and a wine. Wine was from a tetra pack, but still tasty. It cost a total of €2.20, so basically nothing. There is seating and parking spaces. Woman behind the counter was very friendly. Gladly again.”

“Great place for coffee. You will meet mainly local clients here, which gives the place a unique atmosphere. The staff understands English, although sometimes you have to communicate in sign language.”

“Pizzeria Naye is very good! The pizzas are crispy, well topped and delicious. The dough is perfect and the ingredients are very fresh. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is friendly. An absolute insider tip for delicious pizza. Definitely try it!”

“A nice rooftop pool bar at the top of the Saccharum hotel with a stunning view and very friendly, attentive staff. The menu had surprisingly original and elaborate dishes along with simple pool bar classics like pizza and sandwiches. On a hot day, we opted for a variety of cold and hot starters and desserts instead of main meals. The watermelon salad was an absolute highlight, thanks to its surprising texture and savory/salty contrast. I also recommend going upstairs and visiting the beautiful Chef's garden, where apparently all the ingredients of our meal were grown.”

“We had a great time here watching the sunset drinking very boozy cocktails. The owner is very sweet, friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend and would visit ”

“We loved this place. The best burger and chicken wings, hands down. The atmosphere is great too, as it's built around a food truck. Have to check this place out, highly recommend!!”

“Quaint bar, bar owner knorke, people are happy about his smile, picked up our vitamins every day, just stop by, not for spoiled people, great guy, keep it up ✌?”

“Highly recommended place in Madeira. After several tried espetadas we can say that it is one of the best and to highlight the homemade meatballs which are spectacular. Very good attention and service.”

“Amazing value for money.
We got bread and rolls for our hikes from there every morning. We also took the chicken pizza and some other savoury treats with us and everything was tasty.
We treated ourselves to a breakfast of cake one morning as there are soooo many to choose from. The slices are enormous.
Would recommend to have breakfast there every day to try everything. I tried a lot in a week but still feel I am missing out on some things :)”

“My sort of place. Very laid back, stopped for a drink before walking a short distance to watch sunset. Reccomend the ginger and honey tea. Although I didnt eat the boereworst looked good”

“Place with a discreet appearance but with exceptional fish. I ate the mariskos rice, delicious and very abundant, without exaggerating I would say that it was for 6 and not for 2.
I have a beautiful memory of it.”

“Truly awesome place, madeiran snack bar with a modern twist :) From exterior seating to plating everything was very well thought out. The food was awesome too, very nice potato chips and tasty burger with fresh juice :) And all for very fair prices!!”

“Even though I have arrived quite late (around 10 PM) for a little snack, it was not a problem to get some fresh made & really delicious Prego especial with fries & a cool beer :) Perfect finish of the day. Thank you very much, can totally recommend them ??”

“Really chilled place, good for having a cocktail or two and watch the sunset.Just the menu could be improved, there's just pictures of the cocktails with no names, ingredients or prices on it, you'll have to ask the bartender for that”

“A must stop. They don't speak English, if you ask for an English menu they shake their heads. In a few words, they will tell you what, of course, has nothing to do with what you think. Here you really arrive in Madeira. You can eat well for cheap. It is not a place reserved for tourists. But Google is your friend, you can figure out what's going on and they don't care about you. ? Then you'll get something to eat. But you get the feeling of going to a local on Sunday. Don't ask for a cheese sandwich, because cold Gepsonka cold cheese is cold Madeira bread. But they bring it out in 1 minute.”

“Typical Madeira cuisine. Be careful, take a sandwich for two ?. We had a side of fresh tuna salad and ear salad. A delight…. All accompanied by a homemade puncha. I highly recommend this address, one of the best on the island”

“Super lieve vriendelijke uitbater. Vriendelijke ontvangst legt alles super uit en kiest samen met je wat voor wijn je wilt en geeft advies.
Tapasplank was erg goed hebben er zelfs 2 besteld
Een echte aanrader voor een wijntje en tapasplak en prachtig uitzicht”

“Das Restaurant Poncha do Lombo Doutor ist absolut fantastisch! Die Tapas-Platte war einfach himmlisch, jede einzelne Komponente perfekt zubereitet und unglaublich lecker. Das Restaurant ist gut mit dem Auto erreichbar, und man kann direkt vor dem Eingang parken. Ein echter Geheimtipp für Feinschmecker auf Madeira. Absolut empfehlenswert!”

“Its 11:00 pm & all restaurants were closed by the beach! This is a safe haven for late night eaters ! Ate ham & cheese toast & steak special sandwich that hit the spot after a long day of sightseeing. Drinks were delicious. Definitely recommend visiting.”

“Anyone traveling on the Levada nova - this is the ideal rest area. Small authentic bar with friendly service, a great espresso (!!), delicious cake and freshly squeezed orange juice at prices that scream for a hefty tip??.”

“Our lunch at the Lavrador São Vicente restaurant was a real highlight of our stay in São Vicente. We tried the grilled mussels and the fish of the day (sea bass) and were amazed by the quality and taste of the food. The mussels were grilled to perfection and the sea bass was fresh and superbly prepared.

The price-performance ratio is unbeatable. Despite the high quality of the dishes, the prices are more than fair, making this restaurant a must for anyone in São Vicente. The service is also particularly noteworthy: the service was extremely nice and made us feel very welcome.

Overall, we can only warmly recommend the Lavrador São Vicente restaurant. If you are in São Vicente, you definitely shouldn't miss this culinary experience!”

“(Translated by Google) Let's be consistent. There are no different ponchas here, but there are good pitanga and strawberry/lime cocktails that are well worth a detour from the main roads.(Original)Vamos ser coerentes. Não há aqui ponchas diferentes mas há bons coquetails de pitanga e morango/lima que merecem bem um desvio das estradas principais.”

“An address to do in Ribeira Brava, for lunch it's quite generous so be careful not to take too much with a very high recommendation for the "Prégo Spécial" I fell to the ground ”
