This is a cheap and cheerful, no frills cafe which offered a large lunchtime menu. They had a large selection of sandwiches and drinks which was perfect for a quick lunch stop on a busy day of being a tourist in the city. It was also excellent value for money. The cafe looks deceptively small and busy from the outside but there is plenty of seating inside! Overall, a great place to grab a quick bite to eat but this isn’t this isn’t the place for you if you’re after a fancy sit down meal. There are also some vegetarian options available, but no vegan options as far as I could see.

Proper Spanish price and I think it was the owner was the only person to make us feel welcome and not like stupid tourists. It's a small Spanish bar behind the post office. Normal food normal price.

Found this place by accident in a quick search of a spot to charge my phone. Although I didn’t speak spanish and the nicest Mr. Fernando didn’t speak english he made so much effort to strike up a conversation. I ordered fresh orange juice and the price was very accurate- only €3. The atmosphere was so nice I even received two cookies!! I will for sure come back there the next time I visit Palma, this was the best random meeting i got to experience there! I really recommend this place :)

Nice little cafe in a side street. They have a small menu card for breakfast and lunch. The typical Brocattas are very good!

Lovely neighbourhood bar with typical Spanish tapas and light meals, not so touristic and in the middle of the city . Baguettes were very fresh and coffee is very good. Decent prices and good service!
