This is not my business

Can Pometa is a Mallorcan restaurant in the Ponent district of Palma, specialising in traditional home cooking, variats and berenars.

Mallorcan cooking, no frills

Can Pometa is all about honest food: home-cooked dishes made to traditional recipes, prepared low and slow. The menu features variats, tapas, llonguets, sandwiches and a daily set dish. The variats — mixed sharing plates with a choice of components — are the undisputed star of the house. Croquettes and potato salad are particular highlights, and squid dishes, including tintenfisch pica-pica, are among the most consistently praised items. Pa amb oli and other classic Mallorcan snacks round things out nicely.

A family business with history

Can Pometa is the work of Rafel and Tolo Sampol — son and father. Rafel has worked in professional kitchens across Mallorca, while Tolo previously worked at the well-regarded Bar s'Hostalot. Their stated aim is straightforward: a genuine Mallorcan bar serving berenars, variats and affordable home-made daily dishes. They'll tell you themselves that finding a spot in central Palma to do that on reasonable terms is simply not possible — which is precisely why they headed to the industrial estate.

In the Polígon Can Valero

Can Pometa is located at Carrer d'Alexandre de Laborde 18 in the Ponent area — in the Can Valero industrial estate on the outskirts of Palma. The setting is very much part of the concept: this is a place for people who want unfussy, genuinely Mallorcan food at fair prices, without the tourist premium. A spacious terrace complements the indoor dining area.

Who it's perfect for

The restaurant suits families and groups equally well. If you're after a quick Mallorcan-style snack — a llonguet, a variat at lunch or a home-made set dish — you're in the right place. Takeaway is also available.
