Café La Lonja

Palma de Mallorca


With its curved marble bar, tiled-chessboard floor, smattering of tables, padded benches and eclectic decor of old luggage and portraits, this place is as appealing for breakfast as it is for tapas and a pomada (Menorcan gin and lemon soft drink). Sit outside when the weather's warm, in the shadow of Sa Llotja.
