We got passion fruit cake, it was tasty. Coffee is also good. There are only pastries but the amount of filled cakes like the one we get was huge.

We had a great time here! There was only one waitress and she did a damn good job! She was doing coffee, preparing snacks - just everything by herself and she was really fast and during all of this she was still smiling :). Every snack we had here tasted really well! And the taste of coffee was just amazing. Everything is very cheap here. Thank you very much. Greeting from Czechia & Slovakia.

Best coffee in the area and very nice cakes. Yes, the man doesn't show much appreciation for us tourists, but we are invading his world after all (there are way too many tourists in Madeira). I suggest ordering from the nice lady and enjoying a great coffee and breakfast for very good prices.

Charming spot for coffee and pastries. I went there almost every day during my trip because I really enjoyed the atmosphere, and the coffee was exactly to my taste. The prices are very affordable, and the pastries are truly delicious. It's a very local place, which allows you to immerse yourself in their traditions—that’s what makes the café so friendly. Forget the bad reviews from unhappy tourists and let yourself be charmed by a good coffee and tart. Cash only.

We had breakfast here a few mornings and it was wonderful. Very local, very basic and very good. The coffee and fresh pastries were excellent

Perfect breakfast place! If you don’t want to be treated in a ‘rude’ way like some of these reviews say then understand the environment you’re going into is for locals and that they aren’t focused on customer service with foreigners because they usually just have conversations with their regular Portuguese customers. Come prepared and enjoy the food!!
