Ca'n Joan de s'Aigo is a time-honoured pastry shop, ice cream parlour, and chocolatería in the old town of Palma, celebrated for its homemade ice cream, ensaïmadas, and hot chocolate.

A Taste of Mallorcan Tradition

Ca'n Joan de s'Aigo has been a cornerstone of Palma's café culture since the 18th century. Its interior — adorned with antique lamps and marble-topped tables — radiates the charm of a bygone era. The décor alone tells the story of the house's long history, and it's this atmosphere that draws locals and visitors alike.

Ensaïmadas, Ice Cream, and Hot Chocolate

The stars of the menu are the ensaïmadas — freshly made, wonderfully light, and available in several varieties, including the ensaïmada de crema cremada catalana. The homemade ice cream flavours are a highlight, with the almond ice cream standing out in particular; strawberry and almond sorbets are also on offer as a vegan option. Round things off with a gloriously rich hot chocolate. The menu is further complemented by Mallorcan specialities such as horchata, quarto, coca de patata, and gatò. Large ensaïmadas are available to order in advance.

Location: In the Heart of the Old Town

The shop is located at Carrer de Can Sanç 10 in the Centre neighbourhood, right in the heart of Palma's historic old town. The quiet side street sits away from the main tourist thoroughfares — if you don't know the address, it can take a little searching to find.
