Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira

“Went to a Reid’s palace for coffee with a view. Good coffee, beautiful ambience and delicious cakes. A must-visit spot for a spectacular sunset at the terrace. PS Special thanks to a great hospitality and a welcoming staff who explain us the concept of the hotel/restaurants, their own garden and herbs that they use for their all dishes.” — Olia Kohan

“The afternoon tea is 10/10 and couldn't be better!!! Cannot thank the staff enough for being so cooperative and friendly and accommodating for all requests and all the help. The tea itself is so worth it and a must do! All of the sandwiches were fresh and delicious and the variety and presentation of the pastries was also incredible. The best ever afternoon tea!!! Couldn't recommend enough and special thank you to Felipa and all the staff for making it so special.” — Shakunt Tambe

“Afternoon tea @Reid’s Hotel, Funchal ✨☕ A truly beautiful afternoon in one of Funchal’s most iconic luxury hotels. Sitting on the terrace with stunning views over the harbour and the city, this felt like stepping into a world of timeless elegance, old-world charm and understated glamour. The service was fantastic from start to finish, and the whole experience felt effortlessly refined. The food was truly delicious, with excellent flavours throughout, and I especially appreciated how well allergies were taken into account. Not every bite was a personal favourite — the red cabbage and onion-fill” — Oona Haapakorpi
