About Revolucion Cocktail Bar
Funchal's best cocktails, by repute
Revolucion Cocktail Bar — also known as Revolucion Rock Bar — is a small, hugely popular cocktail bar in Funchal's Old Town, now on Rua do Sabão at Praça Amarela after relocating from Rua de Santa Maria. It is run by hands-on hosts and skilled mixologists, and is repeatedly cited by locals and reviewers as having the best cocktails on the island.
Small, buzzy, intimate
The room is small and intimate, a buzzy standing-crowd bar rather than a sit-down lounge. A resident DJ plays an eclectic selection that reaches beyond the usual chart hits, drawing a lively evening crowd into a tight space.
Craft cocktails, no food
The focus is squarely on creative craft cocktails at mid-range prices; there is no food to speak of. The draw is the drinks and the atmosphere, which is why it earns its reputation despite the modest footprint.
Practical notes
Entry is free. It opens daily from around 16:00–17:00 to midnight, with some sources citing 02:00 — worth verifying locally, along with the current door, since it recently relocated. Card payment and English-speaking staff are standard. Find it on Rua do Sabão at Praça Amarela in the Zona Velha.
