Café Adelino
About
When in São Miguel (Azores), Café Adelino is the local business that anchors the village of Ribeira Quente, at R. Além Riberia, 9675-174 Ribeira Quente, Portugal. This restaurant sits on the island's southern coast, a short distance from the Furnas valley and the town of Povoação.
Café Adelino is known for serving meals in a working fishing village rather than a resort setting. First-time visitors should expect a straightforward restaurant where the kitchen follows the day's catch and the rhythm of the village. A rating of 4.6 out of 5, built from 995 reviews, places it among the more reviewed restaurants on São Miguel. Guests travelling from Ponta Delgada or Vila Franca do Campo can reach Ribeira Quente by road along the coast.

São Miguel lies within Portugal's islands, where a mild oceanic climate keeps the landscape green throughout the year and summer brings the driest, warmest conditions. Portuguese cooking on these islands leans on fresh seafood, local cheeses and wines grown in volcanic soil, which shapes what a kitchen in a fishing village like Ribeira Quente puts on the table. Direct flights from mainland Portugal and Europe serve the island, and Portuguese is the main language spoken, so a few words of it help when ordering. The island's main towns, including Ponta Delgada, Furnas and Ribeira Grande, are connected by road, making a meal at Café Adelino easy to fold into a day of exploring the coast.
