Loja Dos Vinhos - Funchal

One of my go to places for a light lunch or late supper, where I can sit and watch the world go by with a glass or 3 of my favourite wine. Staff are friendly and know their wines and are happy to stand and chat if it's not too busy.

What a fabulous place we tried some amazing Madeira Wines including a 1927 vintage wine it was amazing.and the expert information that came from the staff was great.

This small, but perfectly formed wine shop/cafe/bar on Estrada Monumental is a fabulous place. The staff are extremely friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. The wine shop has an extensive range of wine and spirits, in fact you would be hard pushed not to find what it is you are looking for as there is so much choice. When ordering wine you are given a couple of choices, allowed to taste and then choose which one you prefer, a lovely touch.. The staff are able to tell you about the wine region that it is from and answer any questions which you may have. I usually begin my visit with the Madeira wine flight which consists of 3 Madeira wines, from 3 years . You can have either 3yr, 5yr and 10yr or 5yr, 10yr and 15yr with your choice of dryness or sweetness. Staff are very attentive but not overpowering and are always willing to answer any questions which you may have. A fantastic place which is on my ‘must visit’ list on every visit to Madeira..

A must visit when in Funchal cannot rate highly enough. Staff extremely knowledgeable about Portuguese wines and let you sample to see if you like. They do tapas food and the most glorious Chef’s cheeseboard for €22.50 and the Madeira wine tasting experience is lush! Highly recommend a visit to sit outside and people watch with delicious tapas wine.

We just needed a snack and this spot was perfect. Christina was so busy, yet treated everyone like they were the only people there. Good wine selection. Great sardines!
