Boca da Encumeada, a Restaurant at Madeira’s Mountain Pass
A family-run snack bar and restaurant serving Madeiran food, poncha, coffee, and homemade cake from a 1,000-metre viewpoint.
Field notes
The homepage is organized around a practical stopover sequence: establish the pass and viewpoint, show representative dishes, then provide hours, directions, and a phone number. Its food list includes traditional espetada and made-to-order poncha alongside soups, sandwiches, galão, café chinesa, and homemade cake. The page also situates the restaurant near named levada routes and says the kitchen closes around 19:00, a useful detail for hikers planning the return journey.
