Definitely the best café in Funchal. Makes me happy whenever i stop by.. always delicious. And the staff here is very friendly and professional.:) Their coffee is really good and I have to appreciate the option to choose beans in case of V60. In my opinion It’s even one of the best cafés I’ve been to. It has very nice atmosphere as you sit on the rushy street and you can stop for a while.:) Just perfect.. and don’t forget to have a brownie!:)
One of the few specialty coffee shops in Madeira, located right in downtown Funchal. They offer a very nice V60 brew method. A great coffee spot, a must-visit for coffee lovers. The V60 is excellent and offers a variety of coffee types/origins. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Prices are reasonable for specialty coffee. It is pet-friendly, but only at the outside tables.
Incredible coffee! Really nice and modern shop, high quality everything. Fábio was excellent waiter with great vibes!
Retro vibes and well maintained. I see it was really hard to put with this kind of setup when you are the employee and the owner. I understand the hard work he must be doing to maintain the cafe which is reflected how he greets his customers. The design of the cafe shows hid passion for the shop. Located in busy street its not very had to go unnoticed. The coffee itself is really good as he ground it right infront of us. Most of the cafe that does so charge a hefty amount for the coffee. I would say the price is decent for the work. Overall, it is really well maintained cafe with good customer service. I would certainly give 100% if i could but the 1% i would have given if it was really different which would leave a impression on the mind. I really like the work enthusiasm of the owner. It is really great place to hangout with friends and coffe is really smooth. I would say its definitely worth your time to spend few euros here.
Best coffee in Funchal! I was not expecting to find any Specialty Coffee shops in Madeira but found this little gem in the town center no less! They definitely know the craft, you can get a proper v60 pour over filtered coffee or any espresso coffee drinks, they even offer them with oat milk! The owner & staff were also very friendly as well. The inside seating is very cozy and there are tables outside.
Best Pastel de Nata I had in Madeira. The filter coffee was also very good.
Stop here if you want a good coffee and a nice service! I recommend this place!
Nice place to have a Specialty coffee the owners were super friendly. I ordered a V60 and they explained me how they did it because at the beginning I thought it was tea but yes I could taste the cinnamon notes in the coffee. Was a great experience I will go back.
