We visited lots of bars while on holiday!
One of our favourites was the
Cafe L'Illa in Pollensa. The service was very quick and one night the waiter remembered what my drink was and he'd only served me once before! We had breakfast here one morning - the children enjoyed their toasted sandwiches while I had a lovely look around the church in the Placa Mayor.
After our disappointing meal at La Placeta we ended the evening at the
Bar Juma where my son and I had the strawberries and cream and my daughter had the chocolate ice-cream. Hubby treated himself to a large brandy which was deliciously smooth.
We also enjoyed a change of scenery and sampled a couple of bars at the bottom of the Calvari steps -
Cafe Calvari is part of the chain that owns the Cafe L'Illa and has another cafe in PP. We also went to a bar called
La Scalinata where I had a delicious and very fruity glass of the house rose.
We also liked the
Bar Alhambra opposite the Cockerel fountain and it's a great place for people watching and gazing at the old shuttered buildings. They do Tapas dishes if you're looking for something lighter.
In PP, we had some very enjoyable drinks with Timberman and his wife at the
Bar Cultural. It's becoming quite a tradition now every year!
And of course, we also went to
Bony's. We arrived while the Newcastle-Manu U game was on and it was buzzing! It's great that you can access the internet - just ask for the password key to get on and have a drink while you surf! Jose was great! I have to give it to him that he works hard to promote his business and I can't see anything wrong with that. My son collected 53 sweets the night we were there and he attracted a huge crowd of people who were all laughing and smiling! The bar is certainly an institution and yes, the prices were on the steep side, but there are other places nearby if you want something different.
Cafe L'Algar is another favourite for ice-creams and needless to say, my two children sampled quite a few (and I have to admit to having one myself!).
We had a drink at the
Daina one night, as it's tradition and I love to see the colours changing over the bay.
Last but not least was another old favourite -
Bar Mallorca in
Cala San Vicente. The waiter is very professional and always manages to keep hubby replenished with thirst-quenching beer!
CHEERS!!!!
