Bar Flexas
Carrer de la Llotgeta 12, Palma
Bar Flexas is a retro-chic tapas bar in Palma's arty La Calatrava quarter, with a playful 1950s vibe and a small sunny terrace. It serves Mallorcan and Andalusian small plates and vermut to a local, in-the-know crowd, and works equally well for a relaxed lunch or an evening bite. The quirky décor and easygoing atmosphere have made it something of a local institution. Tables on the terrace go quickly in good weather, so arrive early. A characterful choice for those who want tapas with personality away from the main tourist drag.

Adrián Quetglas
Adrián Quetglas is a tiny, buzzy Michelin-recommended restaurant beside the leafy torrent on Passeig de Mallorca. The Argentine-born chef serves a single, frequently changing tasting menu blending Mediterranean, Russian and Latin influences at a price that feels almost improbable for the quality. The contemporary dining room seats only a handful, so tables fill fast and booking weeks ahead is essential. It suits food lovers after an ambitious, great-value tasting experience in a relaxed rather than formal setting. One of Palma's smartest deals in creative fine dining.
Agapanto
Agapanto is a stylish waterfront restaurant overlooking Port de Sóller, with some of the best sunset views on the northwest coast. The kitchen leans Mediterranean-fusion, backed by good cocktails and live music on some evenings, in a relaxed but polished setting above the bay. Sunset is the time to book a terrace table. It suits couples and groups wanting a scenic dinner or drinks rather than a quick bite. An easy, atmospheric choice to end a day in Sóller and its port.
Arabay Coffee
Arabay Coffee is a Mallorca-born specialty-coffee brand with a café and roastery presence in central Palma, serving expertly pulled espresso, brunch bites and beans to take home. A cornerstone of the island's third-wave coffee scene, it suits both a quick quality coffee and a relaxed sit-down with something to eat. Come mid-morning to enjoy it at its calmest before the lunch crowd. Ideal for coffee lovers wanting carefully sourced, freshly roasted beans and a proper flat white in the heart of the city.
