About
Café do Jardim, on Madeira, occupies ER222 357, 9370-701 Arco da Calheta, Portugal, on the island's sunnier southern flank. First-time visitors arrive to a setting in Arco da Calheta, a parish on the south-west coast where the road winds between terraced slopes and the sea.
An average of 4.7 out of 5 across 71 reviews places it among the better-regarded addresses in the area. Funchal, Câmara de Lobos, Caniço, Machico, Santana, São Vicente, Porto Moniz and Calheta all lie within the island's road network, and the ER222 route makes the venue reachable from the larger southern towns.
Madeira's cooking leans on fresh seafood, tuna, maize and root vegetables such as cassava and sweet potato, and music and dance run through island life from morna and coladeira to Azorean folk songs. Rain falls mainly in the winter half of the year on the northern islands, while the southern islands are drier overall, so the south coast often escapes the wettest weather.
