Where to Eat in Deia

Asian Fusion restaurants

Mallorca serves up lovingly made, authentic Asian Fusion cuisine across the island. Locals and tourists have well and truly embraced this food style which means more and more restaurants are popping up. 

Cafes and bakeries

Cafés and bakeries are everywhere in Mallorca, from quiet villages to busy towns – perfect for fresh bread, pastries, or a traditional ensaïmada. Most cafés open early and offer everything from a simple ‘pa amb oli’ to ‘set breakfast’ deals with coffee and juice.

Whether it’s for a quick bite or a lazy morning, Mallorcan cafés feel like a home from home.
