Ca'n Joan de s'Aigo is a much-loved café, patisserie and ice cream parlour in the heart of Palma – celebrated for its homemade ice cream, hot chocolate and traditional Mallorcan pastries.

Ensaimadas, Ice Cream and Hot Chocolate

The star of the menu is the ensaimada – Mallorca's iconic sweet, fluffy pastry – served here in several varieties, including chocolate and cream. The hot chocolate is another house speciality, served in the classic thick, indulgent style the island is known for. Among the homemade ice cream flavours, almond and hazelnut are standouts, alongside vanilla and strawberry. Beyond ensaimadas, the selection includes Mallorcan baked goods such as cuarto, empanadas, coca de patata and duquesa. If you're planning to take an ensaimada home in a gift box, it's worth placing your order at least two days in advance.

A Historic Setting

The café has a timeless, genuinely authentic atmosphere, with antique hanging lamps and marble tables giving the interior a warm vintage character that feels entirely its own. Ca'n Joan de s'Aigo has been part of Palma's café culture since the 18th century, and that sense of history is very much alive inside.
