As Patinhas
About
When in Madeira, As Patinhas is the local business that draws diners to R. dos Dragoeiros 22, 9350-215 Ribeira Brava, Portugal, where it operates as a restaurant on the island's southern coast. The setting places it in Ribeira Brava, a town on the route between Funchal and the western side of Madeira.
As Patinhas is known for serving the kind of cooking that reflects Madeira's Atlantic larder, with fresh seafood, locally raised beef and cheese, and wines grown in volcanic soil all part of the island's table. First-time visitors should expect a straightforward restaurant rather than a formal dining room, with a menu rooted in the region's produce. A rating of 4.3 out of 5, gathered from 1192 reviews, shows how consistently diners respond to the kitchen, and that volume of feedback makes it one of the more reviewed restaurants in Ribeira Brava. The restaurant keeps a Facebook page at m.facebook.com/pages/As-Patinhas/365465683549227 for those who want to look ahead.
Five photos are available for anyone wanting a preview before travelling. Ribeira Brava sits within reach of Funchal, Câmara de Lobos and Calheta, so the restaurant fits naturally into a day exploring the island's south and west.
Warm ocean currents keep Madeira temperate, so greenery persists across all four seasons and the driest, hottest weather arrives in summer. Portuguese is the main language spoken on the island, and direct flights from Europe make arrival straightforward. The island's cuisine leans on fresh seafood, locally raised beef and cheese, and wines from volcanic soils, which is the cooking As Patinhas is built around. Funchal and the other main towns are connected by road, so reaching Ribeira Brava by car or bus is part of most visitors' itineraries.
