CIAO PIZZERIA FUNCHAL
Pizza restaurant
👍👍 A long overdue review. We first discovered Ciao Pizza in March 2023 when they had just opened, and months later, I can say it's still the BEST pizza on the island! Ricardo (the chef owner) makes it himself. The pizza is authentic, delicious, light, and just yummy. The staff is friendly and the servi...

Viewpoint Pico do Areeiro
Observation deck
👍👍 Start at Pico do Arieiro, hike to Pico Ruivo and finish at Achada do Teixeira. Only possible as a guided tour, but this way you don't have to walk back all the stairs to Pico do Arieiro. Amazing views all the way, especially the first kilometers from Pico do Arierio. Even view to Ponta de Sao Louren...

Restaurante Alta Vista
Restaurant
👍👍 Super friendly service, super tasty food - we had the scabard and banana -, excellent both beer and drink. And not the least the freshly made garlic bread. And also noteworthy is the local Madeira. Ending with the fantastic view, giving the restaurant its name.

Fala Fala Vege Food
Vegetarian restaurant
👍👍 Delicious falafel wrap with mango. Fries were okay - they could have been a little crispier and less greasy. The freshly squeezed apple-carrot-ginger juice was excellent and the price was good. The outside area is very cosy, and the food was served quickly.

PR1 Vereda do Areeiro
Hiking area
👍👍 One of the best hikes of Madeira and quite strenuous as well with steep inclines and declines. People who are fearful of height shouldn’t attempt it or should do it with caution. Since this is a very popular hike, it gets really really busy so to avoid the crowd suggest to start early. We started at...

La Vaca Negra

Akua

Overall value for money was great (unbelievable if used to London pricing!), some new cuisines were fantastic to try and overall it was delicious and the service was excellent. The ba...

Bela 5 Snack Bar
Restaurant
👍👍 Loved it. The food is simple, very fresh and reasonably priced. Four of us had a really good lunch with drinks for 50euro.
The waiter was kind and funny and led us through the menu item-by-item in excellent English. Definitely recommend, only small downside is that there is no outdoor seating.

Paredão viewpoint

👍👍 A beautiful viewpoint. We came early in the morning to enjoy the sunrise so the valley was still foggy. However, the sunrise and the atmosphere was amazing.

Eight drafts and lots of bottles. All great examples of the Portuguese craft beer scene. Will be back for more later! Edit: been b...

Tradicional Restaurant
Portuguese restaurant
👍👍 Amazing food, very attentive service and a charming chef. Make sure to leave some room for the mind-blowing desert (which is hard, given the high quality and massive portion size of the main dishes)
Best restaurant we have been to all week.

👍👍 The food and service are really good. The meat is moist and tender. The corn cubes are a treat.
We had two skewers and a couple sides; small is not small at all. Big portions, big skewers and all are tasty and not that expensive.
50 bucks including drinks… what an awesome place.
