About Revolucion Cocktail Bar
Revolucion Cocktail Bar is a cocktail bar in Funchal — Sé
The cocktail list is the reason to come — most bars in this tier mix with fresh island fruit and local rum, and the bartenders tend to know their classics. Weekend nights get busy; weekday evenings are calmer and the drinks come faster.
Drinks are prepared calmly and with soul, so service is unhurried — part of the experience. Tables are kept small (a maximum of five people per table) to protect the atmosphere.
The focus is craft cocktails rather than loud music or a party crowd. Follow them on Instagram at @revolucioncocktailbar.
