Besides the ambiance and great service, there is also freshly prepared delicious food for a fair price. I had a delicious tomato soup and a huge tuna steak with a pan full of salad. My boyfriend had the traditional fish soup and mixed fish skewer with a pan of boiled potatoes. With a glass (or three glasses) of red wine, the perfect meal and the perfect evening! Thank you!“

“Ponchinhas with slightly spicy fried corn... Plus the wings/ shell... EPA.... Five qualities of poncha... Fire... But the beer on top of the cake is the girl who makes the poncha, makes the corn fries the fanquinho.. and still manages to be a public relations person that makes many people jealous.. because she is both beautiful and humble, she smiles at the poor as well as at the poor.. congratulations on her, it's worth it. Worth visiting!!! The soul of the business!“

Freshly made, moist, light, tasty, just wonderful. 2 x coffees 2 chunks of banana cake €7 bargain! OK so the back to the levada is up a steep hill but hey, I do it evety day for a slab of that cake !“

“We had dinner on the terrace (the food gets cold quickly). We ordered a bolo do caco (typical Po an with garlic and parsley) and for mains a secret with very good flavor, and also an espetada de limbo (not the best I've ever had, but it was good). They do not come with garnish or potatoes. The staff is nice and it is next to the beach. We came out to about €35 in total.“

“Avoiding the typical bars and restaurants for tourists, we found this wonderful pub, very tasty food and very attentive and friendly staff, the best place in Madeira that I visited.

Parking: 20 approximately

Kid-friendliness: Yeah“

“When travelling in different parts of the world I try to visit places that have been suggested beforehand or places where there are a lot of local people. This bar was from the latter category. Upon entering it was full of local men having loud discussions. Here I ate the most surprising sandwich with dried tuna marinated in olive oil, onion and vinegar. I thought that the taste of tuna could not surprise me anymore, but it did. Eating only local Maderian dishes this sandwich is in the first place“

“It is located on the street but very quiet with limited sea views. We went there because we wanted to eat hamburgers. Because in almost every other shop you are only served one patty xD. They were just sandwiches but they tasted really good, the bread was nice and fluffy, the sauce was delicious, the salad was good and the patty was also very good. I had a vegetarian burger. The fries were homemade and deliciously seasoned and almost no ketchup was needed. There is also an incredibly large selection of drinks, as is clear at Peters Wine & Beer, even some varieties from Germany, but also many variations of Poncha, a typical drink on Madeira made from rum, honey, lime juice and other fruit juices if you want. The owner is actually very nice, but also a bit peculiar, he quickly starts talking and then forgets to take the orders. If you're a little more reserved, it can be a little uncomfortable, but he'll notice even if you don't want that.

Vegetarian options: There isn't much to choose from, but this vegetarian burger was very tasty. It's really difficult to find more than one or two vegetarian dishes in Madeira.“

“Had a variety of dishes here over 3 evenings, all were excellent but the peppered steak was top of the pile, best we have had and we have had a fair few!Everything about this restaurant is excellent food, drinks, the place itself has a lovely feeling and let us not forget the staff from the chef to all the waiting staff 'thank you so very much' for a fantastic 3 visits.“

“Very tasty Portuguese food.
Great price/performance ratio. The world's best homemade fries. Be careful, you have to like garlic.
Inexpensive drinks and well-functioning service. Simple ambience, but there's a lot more to it than meets the eye. We will be back.“

“No matter how many times i go to Praça Velha is always amazing. The atmosphere is great, the Chef does great food and the kitchen is managed so well that ot comes out in good time and spot on. Dino, the owner is also an great host, always chating and making you comfortable and of course all the staff are allways nice and happy.. recommended for sure. Any time i go to Madeira i visit Praça Velha“

“Eating vegan is difficult in Santa Cruz and Madiera in general. It's meat and dairy heavy, but Recanto da Pitada do a vaguely named Vegan Tapas. It was surprisingly tasty, 8 pieces of pizza-like tapas with a vegan sausage and chickpea patty, topped with vegan cheese.

I'd definitely recommend this if you are after a vegan/plant-based meal in Santa Cruz. It was a large serving despite being in the starter section.

The staff were really friendly and helpful and it was reasonably priced for €20 including drinks for two people.“

“Excellent food and very friendly service by the restaurant owner. We had the two traditional Madeiran meals, Espada (scabbard fish) with banana and Espetada (beef kebab). Both were outstanding! the vegetable that came with the fish were cooked to perfection. The bolo do caco (garlic bread) nicely rounded out the meal. all of this with a glass of a nice house red and Coca Cola with real cane sugar for 30 euros. That is hard to beat...“

“I had read good and bad recommendations about this place, but I preferred to judge it for myself and I was pleasantly surprised. It was quite quiet when we arrived, the decoration was simple and pretty until I saw a piece of furniture with many sets of coffee cups that surprised me. The service was calm and serious, the truth is that the waitress cannot be said to be the life of the party but who knows how many years she has been putting up with people, I have to say that she was kind and correct. The food was very good, the menu is not very extensive but they have some typical dishes and the price is very good.
I have to say that the bolo do caco is the best I have ever tried and I have a few.“
