What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Art Food Corner Madeira is celebrated for its vibrant, artistic atmosphere and exceptional coffee, particularly cappuccinos and cortados. Diners frequently praise the delicious and abundant portions of healthy food options like avocado toast and vibrant bowls. While the ambiance and food are highly regarded, some reviews mention the coffee being average or occasional issues with pastry availability.
"I went in for a late brunch and couldn’t have made a better choice! I ordered an espresso tonic, a glass of kombucha, and the chicken sandwich—everything was fresh, flavorful, and really well-prepared. Despite the place being packed, my order came out in just a few minutes. Great vibe, fast service, and delicious food!"

"Very good food and quantity for the price, they have specialty coffee with a nice variety - v60, filter and brew if i remember well and the taste was good - one could feel the notes quite well.
Would’ve loved if the banana bread wasn’t too crumbly but the portion was quite big."
Ioana Dinca
"One of the best cafes in Madeira, it's as simple as that. The food is outstanding, the service excellent and it's stylish as hell. Finally it's also a bargain. The prices could be a lot higher for what comes out of the kitchen here. One of the menu options I recommend is the beetroot humus on artisan toast, which is served with a superb salad and topped with feta cheese and seeds. Flavours are superb. This cafe is a must visit if you're in Madeira."

The Azores & Madeira: Portugal's Untouched Island Gems
Our trip to the Azores and Madeira was a perfect adventurous girls' trip, and I'm so grateful that we were able to experience such beautiful places. As both spots - but especially the Azores - become more popular, I encourage travelers to add these stops to their trips to mainland Portugal or go separately like we did. As always, feel free to reach out with any travel planning questions, concerns, or suggestions.
