Tapas Bar restaurants in Mallorca

  1. A

    Bar España

    Happening upon this place in the evening when everything else in the vicinity is closed is like discovering some hidden secret. Hugely popular and deservedly so, this place has stone walls and an agreeable hum of conversation accompanies the fine pintxos (Basque tapas), which are lined up along the bar or chalked up on a board.

    Aquiara

    Basque chef Koldo Royo runs this fine tapas bar just across from the water; he once ran one of Palma's most celebrated Basque restaurants. The philosophy behind the tapas on offer is all about simplicity, market cooking, and Spanish traditions and ingredients.

  3. Tasca de Blanquerna

    Perfectly presented tapas that combine Spanish staples (cheeses and cured meats from around the country) with other more creative takes on the genre (such as pork and mushroom terrine with onion and apricot chutney) at this tapas bar run by celebrity chef Marc Fosh. There are bite-sized morsels, larger raciones and a handle of main dishes, as well as a lunchtime menú del día.

    La Taberna del Caracol

    Descend three steps into this high-ceilinged Gothic basement. Through a broad vault at the back you can see what's cooking – tasty tapas that include grilled artichokes, snails and a host of other Spanish delicacies. Amid soothing background music, a broad assortment of tapas (four choices for €14, minimum of two people) makes a great start to the evening.
