Things to do in Madeira, Madeira Islands: The Best Bars & Clubs

March 29, 2022 Layne Dawes

Breezy Madeira is an eponymous island in the Madeira Islands, a Portuguese archipelago. The capital city of Funchal was settled in the 15th century and is a colorful collection of gardens, religious sites, and quirky tourist attractions like the thatched-roof Madeira Story Centre. Hike to the summit of Pico Ruivo and you’ll feel like you’ve climbed through the clouds. Unwind over a glass of Madeira wine, an historic fortified beverage that’s musky and subtly sweet.

Madeira Rum House

Typical place where you can try and buy Madeira Rum from all the island. Visit MadeiraRumHouse!

Reviewed By mark-lambert

Great place. Owner is friendly and offers plenty of advice on the various choices. Some nice rums. Also has wine and other local drinks, including the genuine fisherman's poncha, freshly made. Mid week December, and not overcrowded so plenty of space to sit. Great owner who makes you feel welcome and having spent some time here presented a fantastic photo since he used to be photographer. Genuine nice bloke. Will definitely visit again. Thanks again.

Pukiki Tiki Bar

Madeira's first and only tiki bar, celebrating the historical link between Madeira and Hawaii. Located in Estreito da Calheta, Pukiki Tiki Bar brings you the biggest selection of rum in Madeira, tiki and classic cocktails. Madeira is known as the Hawaii of Europe. In the late 1800s many Madeirans set sail for Hawaii to work in the growing sugar cane industry. Madeira already had a long history of sugar cane production and a very similar sub-tropical climate to Hawaii which made Madeirans ideal workers for this job. They became known as Pukiki to native Hawaiians and influenced Hawaiian culture in many ways, most famously by introducing the Ukulele (known as machete in Madeira) and malassadas. Pukiki Tiki Bar celebrates the link between the islands. We are passionate about all things tropical, mid-century Polynesian Pop, Tiki cocktails and Rum based drinks made from sugar cane. Join us and share the aloha spirit!

Great little tiki bar that gets all the details right: the right music, the right drinks, the right atmosphere. No surprise as the staff is clearly passionate about everything tiki. There's even a direct history link (Madeira and Hawaii) that you can read up on while lounging on the roof terrace and sipping cocktails made with some of the best rums in the world. Definitely a winner.

We’ve just returned home from our second visit to Funchal and the Revolucion Rock Bar! This place is amazing ! The location is fantastic right in the heart of the old town , the homemade poncha is the best on the island I’ve tasted and made with a lot of love ! But the cocktails are something else - I’ve never had a cocktail made with so much love and the thought and hard work that goes into them cannot be replicated - if you like cocktails you must have the custom and tell Thelma what alcohol and fruits you like and you will be presented with a piece of art that looks too good to drink ( but tastes much better ) . The service in this bar is second to none and Thelma and Miguel make you feel like you are with old friends and we will definitely be back to see them soon I hope !
