Description

Hortella d'en Cotanet is a restaurant specialising in Mallorcan and Mediterranean cuisine, set in the municipality of Sant Joan, well away from Mallorca's tourist trail.

Mallorcan cooking with its own kitchen garden

The kitchen at Hortella d'en Cotanet focuses on traditional Mallorcan dishes and Mediterranean classics. Paella — including a vegetable paella — is a firm favourite on the menu, as is suckling pig (porcella). Ingredients are partly sourced from the restaurant's own garden, giving the food a distinctly home-cooked, honest character. A weekend set menu is also available, offering a more accessible alternative to the à-la-carte selection.

Location & getting there

The restaurant is located at Diseminado Diseminados Var 208 in the municipality of Sant Joan — a rural, out-of-the-way spot that isn't always easy to find at first. To get there, take the Ctra. de Palma–Manacor and exit at junction 34, then follow the Camí d'Hortella vell. Free parking is available on site, and free street parking can be found nearby as well.

Atmosphere & setting

The restaurant enjoys sweeping views over Mallorca's green countryside. A terrace, large panoramic windows inside, and a peaceful setting untouched by mass tourism all shape the character of the place. The atmosphere is relaxed and genuinely distinctive — somewhere that has deliberately kept its distance from the hustle and bustle.

Who it's suited to

Hortella d'en Cotanet is a great choice for families with children as well as larger groups. The grounds offer plenty of space for bigger parties, and the venue also hosts private events and celebrations.
