    The plantation itself is small compared to what I have seen in Costa Rica or Mexico. So, you don't need to allot yourself much time to stop at this location along the outskirts of Punta Delgada. But yes, I do recommend stopping by to see a source of great pride for the whole island. As a result of pineapple production on the island, they try to incorporate it into as many things as possible like desserts and drinks. They also have a nice little kiosk in the garden selling pineapple centric items pastries, alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Lastly, do stop into their gift shop that sells jams and liquor made out of you know what (pineapple).

    Good place for a quick stop and free admission. The pineapples are grown in greenhouses and it is a unique growing process. You can walk through the greenhouses and read signs about how it's grown. They sell a variety of pineapple products and drinks too.

    This place was a cute stop over! There is a free tour where you can learn about the pineapples and green houses. We came just as a tour bus was leaving so it was perfect timing, but I would note that it's pretty busy when a tour bus comes. There is also a gift shop that sells various pineapple souvenirs (textiles, jewelry) along with some food items such as pineapple jam, oil, liquor and chutney. Outside of the gift shop is a food stand where you can get various pineapple desserts, actual cut pineapple and drinks (pina coladas and pineapple juice). I ended up getting some pineapple cake and a toastie (which was a pineapple, ham and cheese panini that came with your choice of pineapple mustard or chutney). I opted for the chutney which was amazing! It was so delicious, I ended up buying some from the gift shop. My panini looked so tasty that my friend ended up getting one for herself too. I ate the pineapple cake later which was good but not as good as the pineapple cake I had at A Tasca. I would totally recommend this plantation as a quick stopover and for a bite to eat!

    They have a tasting cafe where we had pineapple liquor, pineapple jam and a pineapple tart similar to pastel de nata.

    My favorite meal on the entire island of Sao Miguel -- an elevated and unique yet highly affordable…read morefarm-to-fork dining experience! If there's only one meal that you must have while on the island, this is certainly the one... so if you're reading this, trust me and make a reservation now! When we arrived, we were handed a map and given the option to walk around and explore the farm either before or after our meal. If you're coming for a later dinner, I'd recommend walking around first so you can explore the farm grounds while the sun is still out. Such a fun way to get acquainted with the rustic charm of our surroundings to kick off the night! According to the owner, they are constantly changing up the menu so no matter how many times you visit, each time will be an entirely unique dining experience... so I won't go into too many details but our selection of the day included: pea soup, salad, fish, roasted duck, and finished off with a decadent chocolate pastry/sorbet combo. Each course was beautifully presented and tasted like a hearty homemade dish prepared with ingredients of the utmost freshness and quality. This was such a fun way to get a taste of local cuisine right from the source, and you can tell that this restaurant is a labor of love -- the owners and servers clearly take pride in the quality of ingredients in the way they walk you through each course in detail. Idk where else in the world you'd be able to find such a deliciously hearty and wholesome 6-course meal with farm-fresh, quality ingredients for 60 euros... if you do, please LMK but in the meantime do yourself the biggest favor and make this a priority while you're visiting Sao Miguel!

    The menu was a surprise farm to table meal with 6 courses. All the food was the freshest used by…read morethe family. The dishes were artfully put together with many tasty ingredients. Each course tasted amazing. We did the wine pairing and all the types of wines served added to the flavors of the dish. Great presentation by the chef. We are outside during a rain storm and the weather further added to the ambiance of the meal. Servers were right on top of everything but they didn't push you to eat quickly and there was no rush. It actually was delightful to take our time and have a great family conversation. Both grandkids, 12 and 10 enjoyed each course. They were very willing to try the variety of the dishes served. The servers knew what was in each dish including the seasonings. Fabulous experience by the whole family. Highly recommend this family run restaurant.
