Altu
About
In Madeira, Altu operates as a bar in Faial, on the island's northern side. The venue draws a 4.6/5 rating from 364 reviews, a strong record among bars on Madeira. Regulars know it for its drinks and its place in the local nightlife of the north coast.
First-time visitors can expect a relaxed bar setting in a village away from the busier resorts. The bar sits within reach of Santana and São Vicente, so those staying in Funchal can drive north along the coastal roads to reach it. Madeira's ocean-moderated climate keeps temperatures mild, so evenings outdoors are comfortable for much of the year.
Portuguese is the official language on Madeira, and English is widely understood in tourist areas. Fish stews and grilled fish are everyday dishes on the island, and each island keeps its own recipes.
With 364 reviews behind a 4.6/5 rating, Altu has built a steady following. Funchal, Câmara de Lobos and Caniço lie to the south, making the bar a natural stop for anyone touring the island by car.
