Description

Sa Croqueteria is a small tapas restaurant in Palma with a singular focus: the croquette — homemade, with a crisp golden shell and a gloriously creamy centre.

Croquettes as a concept

The menu revolves entirely around the croquette. Fillings range from classic combinations such as sobrasada, bacalà and squid in its ink to more inventive pairings like carrot and sesame, spinach and blue cheese, or prawns with leek. There are even dessert croquettes to finish. Rounding things out are pa amb oli and llonguets — the traditional Mallorcan rolls served with a choice of fillings. If you'd rather leave it to chance, a mixed croquette selection is available. Dipping sauces come as a matter of course and are very much part of the experience, while the team is happy to suggest wines to complement your order.

Seasonal specials

The menu is anything but static. Weekly and monthly special croquettes rotate with the seasons and whatever produce is at its best — recent highlights have included pumpkin and chestnut, and sobrasada with mushrooms, cheese and honey.

Atmosphere

The space is small, warmly decorated and kept lively with a good soundtrack. The vibe is intimate and refreshingly local — the neighbourhood sits well away from the busiest tourist corridors of the old town.

Location & getting here

Sa Croqueteria is located at Carrer de Julià Alvarez 12 (bajos) in the Nord district of Palma. Sitting slightly outside the centre, it attracts a neighbourhood crowd rather than passing tourists. As the restaurant is small and fills up quickly, booking ahead is strongly recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I book in advance?
Yes, booking ahead is strongly recommended. The restaurant is small and fills up fast — a table is not guaranteed without a reservation, though a spot at the bar or on the terrace is sometimes available on the day.
Are there vegetarian options?
Yes — a vegetarian pa amb oli is on offer, and several croquette fillings are meat-free, including spinach and blue cheese, and carrot and sesame.
Which croquette varieties are most popular?
Firm favourites include sobrasada (sometimes paired with honey and mushrooms), bacalà, squid in its ink, prawns with leek, carrot and sesame, and spinach with blue cheese. And don't overlook the dessert croquettes at the end.
