50 Best Bars in Funchal

“An amazing find in Funchal! The staff are really friendly and make you feel so welcome and the cocktails were unbelievable. Have to say I also really enjoyed their music taste too adding to the good vibes. If we return to Madeira we would definitely visit here again ☺️“

“Poncha one of the best we tried in Madeira! All flavors are delicious, except English tomato (I do not recommend this one). It's a small place on the corner, crowded, so it's hard to get a table in the evening, but you can take a drink in a paper cup to go. Affordable prices, great taste!“

“We took a break here while exploring Madeira. The Bar / Restaurant popped up at my Google maps and it was worth stopping by! Beautifully located in nature, modern Ambiente and good food & drinks! I had the vegetarian burger you see on the picture and it was delicious! From coffee to cocktails, from snacks to a full on menu - everyone will be pleased!“

“We stopped here few times for drinks late at night as the place buzzed with atmospehere. Notice that there are two entrances and the bar area is much more lively.Service was ok.Unfortunately every time we visited, they were out of stock with some of the poncha flavours.Toilets were really neglected and it kept putting us off from coming back.“

“This bar is very nice. Drinks or snacks. The view is very beautiful over the sea from the terrace. Very friendly and fairly quick service. And it's good. Cocktails with or without alcohol and creations based on Madeira wine as well. Great team“

“I recently visited this bar and I was impressed! The service was both smiley and professional, making me feel welcomed from the moment I stepped in. The sandwiches were absolutely delicious, with a perfect balance of flavors and fresh ingredients.Great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. It’s definitely worth a visit for anyone looking for great food and excellent service.“

“This is a bar/cafe that is well worth a visit. We visited on a number of occasions for coffee, lunch and drinks during a recent visit to Funchal. The service from their lovely staff was excellent, the sandwiches and pastries top class and overall the atmosphere was great. Really enjoyed every visit. It was very popular with locals which is always a good sign“

“An excellent small bar right on the pebble beach with a shower, hidden from tourists. The prices are more than excellent, great food and really friendly staff. Every time I'm in Madeira, it's a mandatory stop. Keep up the good work“

“Cozy place ran by a very kind and friendly young woman. We got two glasses of wine (twice as it was great) and a toast to charge. Everything is made on the spot and this was very much appreciated. Prices are very honest. Certainly going back for my next trip in Madeira. Obrigado!“

“It's a great place if you want to do rum tasting or port wine tasting. Please note that they only have port wines in their Portugal wine tasting repertoire since Madeira is famous for its port wines. The vibe was really chill around 10 pm with people sitting outside and one guy playing guitar.“

“A rustic sports and tapas bar that is a little away from the hustle and bustle of tourism and the restaurant mile. There is a very good poncha there (€2.50) and it is the best for me so far. Very friendly boss and familiar, local atmosphere - that's how you have to experience Funchal.“

“Good food at very reasonable prices.Soup of the day was delicious (2,80€), as it was the dish of the day (bacalhau/cod with rice, 7€).Nice table on the terrace with view of the square.Smiling and friendly staff willing to help.Obrigado às garçonetes! Da Espanha“

“A nice place popular with locals. They have a selection of sandwiches, small dishes, and lots of drink options. When we were there it was hard to get a seat because it was so busy, but the service was still fast. Communicating in English not necessarily the easiest but overall we really enjoyed our stop here.“

“Authentic Madeiran food which was beautifully cooked and tasted amazing. The staff were all very friendly and the service excellent. We had scabbard fish which was soft, delicate and very tasty, and also an octopus salad which was also very good. The owner recommended a bottle of wine which went very well with all of our dishes.“

“You guys are amazing! We have driven here only for this authentic drink Pe de Cabra. It was worth it! So delicious and very cheap. We paid only 6€ for two drinks and had very delicious beans for free. The bar is in the most beautiful place, you can see the whole city and the bar’s staff were super friendly.“

“Because it looked like food across the street, but we just wanted something to drink, we ended up at John's. A very friendly lady who had lived in Switzerland for many years gave us very courteous advice at the counter, hence service 5 despite self-service. A bolo, an apple pie with the drinks, and the apple pie was wonderful with lots of cinnamon, which was a great snack and a very warm conversation.“

“(Translated by Google) Coolest pub ever. A quick beer or red wine at affordable prices. As a snack there is rabbit with potatoes for free. Highly Recommended. Must have visited.(Original)Geilste Kneipe ever. Ein schnelles Bier oder Rotwein zu bezahlbaren Preisen. Als Snack gibt es kostenlos Hase mit Kartoffeln. Absolut empfehlenswert. Muss man besucht haben.“

“A true masterpiece in such a small space.??
A simple space on the outside, but inside we have excellent cuisine in snacks, an art gallery to support artisans, a very friendly staff, a very well equipped wine cellar and of course the icing on the cake, the decoration in the your whole.
Go to the bathroom for a repair, you'll understand why. “

“Madeira local place.
We had 3 beers of 33 and 3 panozzi with tuna (marinated with onion and herbs), local fish with onion (I don't remember the name) and Mrs. cow's tongue and (absurdly) onion.
We paid 16 euros, July 2024.
The patrons were all locals of a certain age and well taken care of. There is the possibility of sharing the table with someone. The place appears on any intersection.
Vote ten.

Vegetarian options: They weren't there today. Never. As in almost the whole island.

Parking: Parking on site or 100 meters away.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is one of the few flat places.“

“My wife and I enjoyed the quality of wine, amazing food and hospitality.It was a must to stop for us every night.

Kid-friendliness: Excellent service, very easy going it couldn't have been better.I would go again we loved it.“

“Excellent. A wine bar with excellent cuisine, succulent dishes as well as being beautiful. Quality service and sea view at the end of the street. Come try?
Our budget experience will not necessarily be yours. Please note, the cheese and charcuterie board for dessert is suitable for a meal to share

Vegetarian options: Fresh salad. Delicious. My experience this evening“

“Vítor é uma pessoa incrível com um coração enorme. Passei alguns meses em Funchal com minha família e todos os dias amávamos ir até ele para tomar um café, cerveja preta com casca de limão e ele sempre encontrava algum doce para as crianças. Sempre que venho à Madeira, é uma parada obrigatória para mim. Continue assim, meu amigo ❤️“

“This is definitely the best craft beer spot in the Island.
The variety and choices of beers on tap and on can is very large and good.
The quality of the beers and homemade nibbles is undeniable.
I’ve spent a week in Funchal and have been visiting Graca and Duarte every open day !

Thank you for your kindness and your very warm welcome, and for a new friendship !
I’ll be back soon

Aurelio ❤️“

“Excellent place to hang out, beer in a cold mug.But it could have other little teeth, there is shrimp, but when it runs out or lupins. There could be a greater variety of ear teeth, boiled eggs, gizzards, etc.

Wheelchair accessibility: It has an accessibility ramp.“

“I went to this place for the first time, on purpose to enjoy the francesinha. Very acceptable. Tasty and well served (if the steak was 2 or 3 mm longer, nothing would be lost). The sauce is tasty, but could thicken a little more. The fries, although they weren't bad, have the defect of being pre-frozen (they soon lose a star).
Helpful and communicative employees, in a spacious and airy location.
Acceptable price.
To be repeated, to confirm the assessment.“

“All of 30 metres away from Sunny bar we found small bar Expresso. Another wonderful locals bar. Super locals vibe and great value. Oddly it has world snooker final on TV. We were drinking next to the Crucible Theatre when it started just over 2 weeks ago. Small world.“

“Francisco is a lovely and friendly host. We were very satisfied with his directions that led us to the hotel. "second corner" !! We always like to come back and will definitely come back to the "second home" next year. Joachim & Margrit greet you from the north of “

“What a find. Beautiful, clean, great food, drink and service.Staff at the reception of the hotel were friendly and directed us to the lifts up to the rooftop bar where we were welcomed and served quickly.We had white sangria, fries and toasties which were all great.Perfect spot for a sunny day and to admire the views of Funchal“

“(Translated by Google) Just a nice neighborhood pub at a crossroads in a neighborhood outside the tourist center of Funchal. Truly a place where all world problems are provided with a solution by visitors within fifteen minutes. The friendly young man behind the bar spoke a quarter of a word of English, but helped us with a delicious Coral beer. We had actually come for a small bite, but the meny card was out of the question. Still, we got some peanuts and chicken wings. We gave the friendly young man a good tip!(Original)Gewoon een lekkere buurtkroeg bij een kruispunt in een buurt buiten het toeristische centrum van Funchal. Echt zo'n plek waar alle wereldproblemen door de bezoekers binnen een kwartier van een oplossing worden voorzien. De vriendelijke jongeman achter de bar sprak en kwart woord engels, maar hielp ons aan een heerlijk Coral biertje. We waren eigenlijk ook gekomen voor een kleine hap, maar van de menykaart was geen sprake. Toch kregen we wat pinda's en chickenwings. De vriendelijke jongeman hebben we een goede fooi gegeven!“

“Clean and cozy place. Very beautiful decoration, matching the space! Much improved in every way!Now let's talk about the food: very well conceived, tasty and well served! Chicken wings with house sauce are great! The nail in bolo do caco is very good!Prices: soooo good! More than affordable... it's better to have reasonable prices and a full house than high prices and serving flies.Today I will once again consume in this space! And probably next week again.Definitely worth your visit.Congratulations to the new owners and all the staff“

“(Translated by Google) A great place to stop for a coffee or poncho.The poncho is made on site in front of your eyes and is delicious.Another small and inconspicuous place on the map of Funchal and Madeira.(Original)Świetne miejsce na mały stop aby wypić kawę bądź poncha.Poncza jest robiona na miejscu na twoich oczach i jest przepyszna.Kolejne małe i nie pozorne miejsce na mapie Funchal i Madery.“

“(Translated by Google) Excellent view of Funchal and good food, breakfast. Lunch and dinner and drinks Ponchas, wines!! great attention from the staff,(Original)Excelente vista do Funchal e boas comidas, pequeno almoço. Almoço e jantar e bebidas Ponchas, vinhos!! ótima atenção dos funcionários,“

“I loved the place, it's called a whole on the wall, or "Hole in the wall", 5 star staff, good food, good atmosphere, I'll be back

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, there is an elevator with direct access to the space“

“I do not have words to explain how tasty, fresh and nice their food is. It is a place where locals eat. The waiters are so experienced that they already know what you want. You must try Espetada(meat on skewer) and for vegetarians( the special burger) on the menu. Bravo, bravo, bravo!!!“

“I haven't even been here yet, but when I arrive I'm told I must go to a Mlungu named Bernie,
Does your venue offer karaoke by any chance?

I'm bringing my wife to show her SA's best Madeiran Pub, or so I'm told.

We arrive tomorrow! Coming in hot with Amarula lust“

“Good people love the shop went with my cousin Ana And her kids they do nice nail and good coffee..And Andre theyr worker is a lovely man and makes everyone welcome...wish I could stay longer but sadly have to go back to my country in England will miss going thereGood people and I enjoyed going there to make a good nail and Caffè.And Andre is a good person who makes everyone welcome.I would like to stay longer but I have to go back to my country in England I will miss you all“

“We are back in Madeira and still go there often for a quick snack. The price-performance ratio is right and the great view is on top of that. It's usually well attended, often by locals, and that speaks for itself. The service was mostly quick, always friendly and correct. The table was also always cleaned beforehand and I/we will go there again.“

“Cool and pleasant atmosphere in the shade. The coffee is delicious, but the snack, specifically the toast, is small, close to the price charged. Fast and friendly service. Due to the large flow and wind, there is a lot of trash on the ground, which should receive more attention from employees.“

“Excellent restaurant, the best food we ate in Funchal!!! To our surprise, it was not the beer that was important, but the excellent food: be sure to try Picado (we ate beef and octopus). Great service and atmosphere! And finally, brandy shots, which is not standard in Funchal! I recommend it 100%“

“(Translated by Google) The perfect place to sip punchas. The setting is perfect in Santa Maria Street in the "old town" of Funchal. Inexpensive (€3/glass) and several flavors possible. The bartender is very friendly.(Original)L'endroit idéal pour siroter des punchas. Le cadre est parfait dans la rue Santa Maria dans la "vielle ville" de Funchal. Pas cher (3€/verre) et plusieurs goûts possibles. Le barman est très sympathique.“

“This is one of the nicest, most friendly wine bars in Funchal. Close to the Municipal Park, Francisco and Tania will offer a warm welcome and superb selection of wines by the glass or bottle. Delicious snacks, tapas and food. Highly recommended.“

“Walked all of 10 steps to the next bar. Another typical little bar with pleasant outside seating. Back on the Coral and a white wine. Lovely evening. Puffed maize kernals as a freebie tapas. Lovely and crunchy. Attracting the pigeons.€5.50.“

“(Translated by Google) Simple, effective, drinks at a more than reasonable price! Perfect for an evening with friends in a festive street!(Original)Simple, efficace, consos à un tarif plus que raisonnable ! Parfait pour une soirée entre amis dans une rue festive !“

“Another fabulous visit to this little Gem. We usually walk this way on the way between Funchal and Camara de Lobos. The staff are welcoming and the drinks and food are always an excellent price. Today we had the filet mignon and the chicken Maryland which were both delicious and freshly made. We love this place“
