Description

Bar Arenas 1951 is a long-established bar in Palma, situated on the lively Plaça de la Drassana, serving tapas, coffee and drinks.

Tapas, Coffee & Classics

The menu revolves around classic Spanish tapas and snacks: tortilla de patatas, ensaladilla rusa, gambas and pulpo all feature alongside filled rolls and bocadillos. Coffee comes in a range of styles — café con leche, cortado and cappuccino. If you just fancy a cold beer, you're equally welcome.

Local Character, Decades in the Making

The bar carries its founding year, 1951, in its name — and the atmosphere lives up to that long history. This is a place that works as a neighbourhood meeting point, drawing regulars from the local area rather than passing trade. That gives it a feel that's a world away from tourist-facing venues.

Terrace on the Square

The terrace on Plaça de la Drassana is a lovely spot to sit out in the open air — a shaded outdoor area that's well suited to a relaxed breakfast, lunchtime tapas or an afternoon drink. The bar is in the Centre district (07012 Palma), within easy walking distance of the cathedral.
