Description

The Crow's Nest is a South African restaurant in Cala Major, Palma, with direct sea views.

South African cuisine with a view

The Crow's Nest is all about authentic South African cooking: bobotie, peri-peri chicken, ribs, leg of lamb, boerewors and malva pudding are among the dishes that stand out time and again. Portions are generous, flavours bold and well balanced. South African wines round off the offering, and vegan options are available — and genuinely praised.

Owners who put their heart into it

Dave and Estelle have been running the restaurant in person for over a decade and are there every evening. Head chefs Michał Smorawski and Patryk Trzciński have been part of the team for nearly ten years — a consistency that shows on the plate. The team has spent time together in South Africa to experience the cuisine first-hand, and the result is a place that guests from all over the world come back to again and again.

Location & getting there

The restaurant is at Carrer de la Gavina 7 in the Ponent neighbourhood of Palma, halfway down the steps to Cala Major beach. It is a little tucked away, but well worth finding. Free on-street parking is available nearby.

Atmosphere

A cosy, welcoming atmosphere and direct views over the sea make The Crow's Nest a special spot for an evening out. If you'd like a table with a sea view, simply mention it when you book.
