Good To Know
From shelter to skewer HQ: Casa de Abrigo do Poiso is proof Madeira doesn’t just climb mountains—it serves them with buttered bread and history on top!
Nestled in Madeira's rugged mountains, Casa de Abrigo do Poiso started as a humble pit stop in the early 1900s, giving weary travelers a breather. Fast forward, and it’s now a top-notch eatery dishing up local faves like bolo do caco and skewers that could make your taste buds dance. Inside? Rustic vibes galore—think wooden chairs and a dash of island charm.
Today, it’s still the perfect hideaway, blending tasty bites with Madeira's lush, laurel-filled beauty.
Also closeby is one of the most famous Hikes Madeira has to offer: Vereda do Areeiro (PR 01)
