Friendly, great atmosphere and accommodating of us as non-Spanish speaking. We muddled our way through to enjoy great pasta and beer in a very pleasant tree-lined suburban al fresco setting. Highly recommended if you’re prepared to step outside the tourist quarter.

Small but very welcoming bistrot, Giovanni is a very nice guy who works alone and definitely knows how to do it. Nice breakfast and great lunch. Ratio quality/price right. Super recommend!

I’ve kinda fallen in love with this place, randomly walked past it the first day I was in Palma and decided to give it a try for breakfast. In principle it’s nothing fancy, but some how it just has a ‘thing’ that makes it feel unique. Besides the great coffee!
