Restaurant / Gastronomy in Santa Maria del Camí

Santa Maria del Camí lies in the Raiguer, the fertile region between the plain of Palma and the foothills of the Tramuntana mountains, and has kept a culinary character of its own away from the coast. The Restaurant / Gastronomy category for the town lists 25 entries, ranging from traditional cellers serving Mallorcan cuisine to bars and cafés around the Plaça de la Vila, where much of local life comes together.

The variety is already visible in the historic centre: old wine cellars, once part of the region's winemaking tradition, are now often restaurants serving dishes such as frit mallorquí or porcella (roast suckling pig). Restaurant Pizzeria Celler Sa Sini, for instance, shows how Mediterranean and international cooking can be combined with the character of a traditional celler. Strolling through the narrow streets around the church of Sant Antoni Abat, one comes across small bodegas as well as more modern cafés that have opened in recent years.

In practical terms, it is worth booking ahead especially on Sundays, when the well-known weekly market draws more visitors and brings more activity to the local restaurants. Santa Maria del Camí sits directly on the Ma-13 road between Palma and Inca and also has its own train stop, making the town easy to reach even without a car for a spontaneous restaurant visit.
