Frutaria das Madalenas

3.8(20 reviews)

About

Frutaria das Madalenas, on Madeira, sells fresh fruit and vegetables from its base on Av. da Madalena 101 99, 9020-402 Funchal, Portugal.

First-time visitors should expect a working greengrocer rather than a tourist stop, with produce laid out for everyday shopping. The shop holds a 3.8 out of 5 rating from 20 reviews. Reaching it from resorts such as Caniço, Câmara de Lobos or Machico is straightforward by car or bus along the main roads into Funchal. The premises sit in Funchal, the island's capital and largest town.

Being in Funchal, the shop is well placed for anyone staying in the city or passing through on the way to other parts of the island. Its 3.8 rating from 20 reviews reflects a modest but consistent level of customer feedback.

The ocean moderates temperatures, so the climate stays mild for the latitude and extremes of heat and cold are rare, which keeps local produce available across much of the year. Shoppers heading further west towards Calheta, Porto Moniz or São Vicente can stock up before leaving the city. Madeira's winter months are cooler and windier, and each island group has its own pattern of wet and dry months, so the selection shifts with the seasons. A stop here fits naturally into a day that also takes in Santana or Machico on the eastern side of the island.
