2. Hostal Cuba Bar and Restaurant

Location
Palma de Mallorca

Housed in a striking colonial-style building at the edge of Palma’s trendy Santa Catalina district, this is a long-standing local favourite that blends good food, great views and a vibrant social scene. Having made its mark in recent years as one of the more sophisticated venues within the hip city district, its Sky Bar is undoubtedly a great choice in which to start your night. Just a few blocks from the island’s best-known food market, the kitchen makes the most of fresh, seasonal produce, creating a menu of healthy, flavourful dishes served from breakfast through to late dinner.

Whether you choose to dine indoors or on one of the terrace spaces, the focus is on relaxed hospitality and well-prepared food that leaves you feeling genuinely looked after. It’s an easy place to linger, whether you’re stopping by for breakfast, lunch or an unhurried dinner. Take the lift up from the ground floor level of Hostal Cuba and make sure you grab your table early. You’ll be attentively served by dapper waiters, whilst marvelling out at the sensational panoramic views of the harbour, old town and cathedral. Those arriving at around 18.00 will secure a table easily, but any later and you’ll likely have to wait.

One of Hostal Cuba’s biggest draws is its rooftop Sky Bar. Open in the afternoon and evenings, it offers sweeping views across the Bay of Palma, with the cathedral rising above the treetops. It’s a wonderful spot for sunset cocktails and one of the city’s most atmospheric vantage points. Later on, the mood shifts as the club comes to life, making Hostal Cuba a popular destination for night owls looking to enjoy Palma after dark. From daytime dining to late-night drinks, this is a place that captures the energy and character of the city.
