1. A Confeitaria
$ | |This excellent coffee shop has a few branches across Funchal, but the best has to be the one on Rua da Conceição, where chairs spill out onto an unnamed square that's cobbled in black and white stripes. Small tables under shady parasols provide the perfect rest stop to grab a bica (espresso) and a pastel de nata (custard tart); step inside and you'll see row upon row of neatly presented cakes and tarts laid out in the chilled counters like gems in a jewelry box.
Rua da Conceição Praça do Carmo 49, Funchal, Madeira, 9050-026, Portugal291 640 513Known For

- Dazzling array of traditional pastries and desserts
- Some of the best coffee in town
-
2. La Perla
$ | |From the road, this restaurant doesn't look like much: a fading yellow building with a few signs outside to attract the tourists; step inside and you'll be blown away by the views of the valley from the balcony in the rear. There's a huge wood oven where they grill whole chickens, serving the tender meat with generous bowls of bolo do caco.

4. Corvopan
$ | |This bakery opposite the seafront doesn't look special from the outside, but when you taste the freshly baked bread and delectable cakes you'll soon see why many locals make this a daily stop. This is the place to be after church on Sunday, with everyone lined up to grab a pastry.

5. Golden Gate Grand Café
$$$$ | |Just across from the tourist office in the heart of Funchal, this restaurant-café has been open for business off and on since 1814; sit in the airy interior, capture one of the tables that flank the sidewalk, or—even better—bag a seat on the balcony. You can pop in for coffee, light local specialties, or British-style afternoon tea, or settle in for a feast of (somewhat pricey) Portuguese dishes.
