    Super nice and friendly staff and delicious food! They have dishes of the day which are cheap, fresh and lovely. 100% recommend this place ♥️☀️

    Really friendly staff, good coffee. Menu is quick and easy snacks: toasties etc rather than main meal: the 'especial' is good! They also sell a few madeira wines amongst other drinks. Inside seating area, with a small external seating area, would recommend a visit.

    Staff were super friendly! We had one of their recommendations which was herby polenta with tuna steak in a tasty sauce. It's probably more a of a dish for the winter but we loved it anyway.

👍👍 It is one of the best places to taste the traditional Prego no Bolo do Caco, But the very high attendance of this place makes the staff (owners?) less pleasant. The place is still worth a visit. Simple, tasty food. Good prices.
