Alambique
About
Alambique serves Madeira as a restaurant on the island's south-western coast, at Rua da Serra D'Água 1, 9370-087 Arco da Calheta, Portugal. The surrounding parish sits above the sea on the sunnier side of Madeira, within easy reach of Calheta and the larger resorts along the coast road.
Diners have given Alambique a 3.7 out of 5 average across 60 reviews, a score that reflects a steady local following rather than a tourist-driven crowd. The restaurant's website at https://www.savoysignature.com/saccharumhotel/en/restaurant-bars/alambique-restaurant/ carries its identity and menu information. Funchal, Câmara de Lobos, Caniço, Machico, Santana, São Vicente, Porto Moniz and Calheta frame the wider island, and the drive from Funchal to Arco da Calheta follows the coastal road past fishing villages and terraced slopes.
Arco da Calheta sits on Madeira's western edge, where the land drops steeply toward the Atlantic. The location places the restaurant within the Calheta area, a part of the island known for its warmer, drier microclimate compared with the north coast.
Portuguese is the official language on Madeira, with local accents that differ from the mainland. Whale-watching boats leave from several island harbours, and the surrounding waters draw dolphins and seabirds for much of the year.
