If you’re spending the day relaxing on the golden sand of Machico or exploring the eastern coast, you have to swing by Pizza Café Machico. It is a super chill, friendly local spot that is a total favorite for a relaxed lunch or a casual dinner after a day of exploring.

The vibe here is incredibly welcoming, the service is always lovely, and they serve up some of the best pizzas on this side of the island with perfectly crispy crusts and fresh toppings.

What to Order: The Chicken Pizza 🍗🔥

If you're wondering what to get, you absolutely have to try their chicken pizza (keep an eye out for the Pizza de Frango on the menu!).

It is loaded with perfectly seasoned, juicy shredded chicken and melted cheese, and it is the ultimate comfort food after a long coastal hike or a swim in the ocean. Pair it with a cold drink, and you’ve got yourself the perfect beach-town meal!

🚌 Bus Info:

Getting over here from the capital is incredibly easy and budget-friendly:

• Hop on the SIGA Bus 113 (Route 702) right from Funchal.

• It takes a beautiful scenic route and lands you directly at the main Machico bus terminal, which is just a short, flat stroll away from the café and the beach!
