Porto De Recreio Da Calheta0.0 mi from Calheta centrelast reviewed October 2026

The kiosk on Calheta Beach pours espresso, cold brew and V60 or Chemex from Gato Legal's own single origins, and it is a better coffee stop than a beach kiosk has any right to be. Order the filter and ask the barista what's on.

A Santa Cruz specialty stop near the airport, with single origins on the counter and bags to take home. Sit down to a brew that tastes like it was made by someone who cares.

FORTH★★ Specialty
Câmara de Lobos

Câmara de Lobos has few places pouring filter, and FORTH does it properly, with V60 on the menu alongside espresso. Pair it with a rotating guest coffee from other roasters and a single origin that comes with printed tasting notes.
