Can Gafet is a Spanish-Mallorcan restaurant on the Carretera de Manacor, around twelve kilometres outside Palma.

Charcoal grill and Mallorcan cuisine

The heart of Can Gafet is its open charcoal grill, where meat and fish are cooked fresh — and you can watch the action from the dining room. Dishes that draw particular praise include arroz brut, snails, grilled rabbit, quail, and a range of cuts straight from the grill. Things get started with grilled bread served with aioli and tomatoes. Honest Mallorcan home cooking is firmly at the centre of it all — the frito mallorquín and the grill specials are the real cornerstones of the menu. Portions are generous, and the value for money is consistently rated as excellent.

Location & getting there

The restaurant sits on the Carretera de Manacor at km 12, in the Platja de Palma i Pla de Sant Jordi area, making it easy to reach by car. Free parking is available directly at the restaurant, with free on-street parking nearby as well. The location on a busy main road means aircraft noise is part of the backdrop — good to know in advance so you can come prepared.

Atmosphere & who it's great for

Can Gafet is an unpretentious, family-run sort of place that works just as well for groups as it does for families with children. The setting is simple and no-frills, but the view of the open grill gives the dining room a character all of its own.
