Found on Madeira, O Leque occupies Praca do Município 7 in São Martinho, Funchal, and opens every day from 08:00 to 24:00. The café holds a 4.7 out of 5 rating across 153 reviews, with a Facebook page at https://m.facebook.com/barleque/.
Funchal sits on the island's south coast and serves as the main hub, with Câmara de Lobos and Caniço lying close by along the same shore. Machico and Santana sit to the east and north, while Porto Moniz and Calheta reach round to the west. The café's location within Funchal places it within easy reach of the island's main resorts and towns.
Its long daily hours, running from morning until midnight, suit visitors at almost any point in the day. The surrounding Atlantic waters draw whales, dolphins and seabirds, and whale-watching boats run from several islands.
Madeira's winter months are cooler and windier, so travellers planning a visit should pack accordingly. Portuguese is the main language, and the café sits in the heart of Funchal's civic quarter.
