Cafés and bakeries in Palma

Palma, the capital of Mallorca, has a long tradition as a place for coffee and pastries. In the old town around the cathedral, along Passeig del Born and in the narrow streets near Plaça Major, cafés and bakeries have long shaped the character of the city. With 785 listings in this category, Palma is one of the places on Mallorca with the widest selection of such establishments, ranging from small family-run businesses to well-known addresses with a long history.

This variety is reflected in the different neighbourhoods: while traditional pastry shops in the old town have been baking ensaimadas and other Mallorcan pastry specialities for generations, more modern cafés have established themselves in Santa Catalina and around La Lonja, blending international influences with local craftsmanship. Among the best-known addresses are Ca'n Joan de s'Aigo, one of the oldest pastry shops in Palma, and Cafetería San Vicente, which has been part of daily life for many Palma residents for decades.

Most cafés and bakeries are within walking distance in the old town or the surrounding residential areas, easily reached on foot or by public transport. Especially on weekends and during high season, demand for fresh pastries and coffee rises noticeably towards midday, so arriving early is advisable for popular addresses.

What do the Spanish coffee names on a Palma café menu actually mean?

When you sit down in a café in Palma, you'll usually see café solo, which is a simple espresso, and café con leche, which comes with plenty of warm milk. A cortado sits in between, an espresso softened with just a splash of milk. Locals also love the café bombón, made with sweetened condensed milk, and the carajillo, an espresso lifted with a shot of liqueur or brandy. Ordering standing at the bar rather than sitting on a terrace usually saves you money.
