Havaneza
About
Havaneza, on Madeira, opens early and stays open late through the working week, with hours running from 07:00 to 21:00 Monday to Friday and a shorter Saturday window of 07:00 to 16:30. The café sits on R. do Padre Gonçalves da Câmara 12 4 in São Martinho, 9000-085 Funchal, Portugal, placing it within Funchal's western parish. First-time visitors should expect a neighbourhood café rhythm rather than a resort timetable, which means mornings are the busiest stretch and Saturday afternoons close early.
Visitors rate Havaneza at 4.5 out of 5, a score drawn from 61 reviews that reflects steady local approval rather than a fleeting crowd. The café's Facebook page at facebook.com/pastelariahavaneza carries its identity, and the review count suggests a settled following among Funchal residents and returning guests. Câmara de Lobos lies within easy reach along the coast, and the island's main resorts and towns connect to Funchal by road, so reaching the café from the wider island is straightforward.
Opening hours shape the week here: weekday service spans fourteen hours, while Saturday trade wraps up by mid-afternoon. The café's Facebook page is the venue's own online presence, and the review score gives a sense of what regulars make of it.
Funchal, Câmara de Lobos, Caniço, Machico, Santana, São Vicente, Porto Moniz and Calheta are among the nearby places that frame a visit to this part of Madeira. Inter-island ferries carry passengers and supplies between the islands, and crossings can be rough in winter, so travellers planning to combine Madeira with another island should allow for that. Sea temperatures stay warm enough for swimming for much of the year, though the water remains cooler than in the Mediterranean, which suits visitors who prefer a bracing dip to a warm one.
