Best restaurants in Menorca
Deciding which board basis to book for your holiday in Menorca is no easy task these days, do you go for the freedom of a self catering apartment, a small bed and breakfast or the reassurance of knowing all your meals are taken care of by going all inclusive? Whichever option you decide on, it’s good to know the people of this island adore great food and there’s plenty of fantastic dining opportunities available around the resorts, so no chance of you ever going hungry.
Fans of mayonnaise, you definitely need to try some out here as it originates from the capital Mao (Mahon).
Some of the best restaurants in Menorca have a prime position overlooking the gorgeous Mediterranean Sea, making a lovely setting for a relaxing meal watching the sunset.
Small and friendly
Sa Gavina in Arenal d’en Castell caters for the family and looks out over the horseshoe bay. There is plenty of choice when it comes to deciding on the menu including Spanish and English favourites.
Something for everyone
Café du Nord over at Playas de Fornells is set in a pretty landscaped area, providing the choice of a set menu or some classic meals such as steak, seafood or pizza to tempt you.
Spanish charm
For a taste of some local cuisine, head to Restaurant Miramar, Cala Blanca. You will find the lineup is mainly Spanish or seafood here. Located on the beach, the views are a delight, especially if you are lucky enough to be there at the right time to watch the sun go down.
Eating in city
If you are visiting the capital of Mahon, don’t miss out on a visit to Restaurante Way. This waterside eatery serves an extensive Chinese and Japanese menu all cooked to order, delivered with first class service.
Best bars in Menorca
Unlike full-on party vibes found in sister islands Majorca and Ibiza, nightlife in Menorca tends to have a much more laid back feel. Evening entertainment is often based in larger hotels and in local bars, which stay open til late. Most of the best bars in Menorca are located within the resorts but if you fancy a night out on the tiles, capital city of Mahon is by far the liveliest area to head for, with many bars and discos dotted around the port area.
Sa Fulua, Mahon
There is no shortage of choice when it comes to bars in Mahon, but this cosy cocktail bar is considered a firm favourite by many for its authentic atmosphere and first class service. Their indoor terrace is perfect for grabbing a quiet drink after a long day sightseeing.
B51 Irish Bay, Arenal d'en Castell
Overlooking Arenal’s beautiful horseshoe bay, B51 Irish Bar opens until late every night for fun nights out, providing entertainment for your whole family to enjoy, including live music and TV screens for sporting events. There is a seating area outside ideal for soaking up a cool breeze on warm nights.
Tom's Bar, Cala n Bosch
For a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff on hand to welcome everybody, this is a great little bar to spend your evenings. Try one of the selection of tasty cocktails, whilst dancing to live music on the terrace area. There is also free WIFI available.
Big Apple Karaoke Bar, Cala n Bosch
Whether you class yourself as a singer or not, we all love a bit of karaoke every now and then, so this is a perfect setting for a fun packed night out. Big Apple also has TV screens for sports and has a snacks menu if anyone is peckish.
The destination of Menorca may not be party central but it’s a fabulous place for chilled out nights.
