Bar Flexas

Cosy and charismatic bar and restaurant in the heart of Palma

Step into Bar Flexas, a cosy and charismatic bar in the heart of Palma’s Old Town. Since 1944, this emblematic venue has quietly become one of the city’s best-kept secrets, with a predominantly local crowd and the occasional tourist lucky enough to stumble in. Reopened in 2004 by Xavi de las Heras, Pepa Charro, and Fernando Estrella, Bar Flexas sits in what was once Palma’s Chinatown, offering a quirky, authentic atmosphere that’s welcoming to everyone.

Inside, the bar combines stylish décor with an unpretentious vibe. Friendly staff serve a small but tasty selection of dishes and tapas, perfectly paired with a range of drinks. Its unique charm lies in its mix of history, personality, and lively yet relaxed social energy, making it a favourite haunt for locals.

Bar Flexas is also famous for its annual July anniversary party, coinciding with the neighbourhood’s summer festivities. Over the years, this event has become a highlight in Palma’s social calendar, attracting a friendly and enthusiastic crowd from across Mallorca and beyond. Whether you’re dropping by for a drink, a quick bite, or to soak up its historic atmosphere, Bar Flexas offers a memorable slice of Palma’s vibrant culture.
