Bay Brunch: restaurant in Madeira

Bay Brunch serves brunch, café and Portuguese cooking in Caniçal. Prices are low (€) and the house speciality is Brunch toasts and full brunch plate.

Casual brunch and lunch restaurant on Caniçal's seafront, with a terrace near the pebble town beach. We ate here on 29 September 2026: busy, friendly staff and a mostly tourist crowd. The menu covers breakfast bowls, a full brunch, toasts, burgers, prego steak rolls, fish, chicken and kids' plates, plus wine, sangria, poncha and cocktails.
