About

On Madeira, XBar sits at R. da Conceição 6A, 9050-026 Funchal, Portugal, in the island's capital. The bar draws a following that leaves it with a 4.3 out of 5 average from 58 reviews. It is known among those who go out in Funchal as a place to spend an evening in the city centre.

First-time visitors should expect a Funchal bar setting rather than a resort venue, with the address on a central street in the capital. Portuguese is the official language on Madeira, with local accents and creole varieties heard across the mid-Atlantic islands.

Funchal is the main town on Madeira, and the island's other settlements — Câmara de Lobos, Caniço, Machico, Santana, São Vicente, Porto Moniz and Calheta — are linked to it by road. Reaching the bar from those towns means travelling into the capital.

Island cooking on Madeira leans on fresh seafood, tuna, maize and root vegetables such as cassava and sweet potato. The mid-Atlantic islands are volcanic in origin and stand far from any continental mainland. The winter months are cooler and windier, so a visit in that season calls for a warmer layer.
