In Palma de Mallorca, enjoying a good breakfast is an essential part of the cultural and tourist experience. Here you'll find traditional options as well as modern and specialized proposals.
The breakfast offerings in Palma de Mallorca are as diverse as its visitors, ranging from the classic 'pa amb oli' to international brunch options. Choosing the perfect spot can transform your first meal of the day into a memorable experience and set the stage for exploring the island without worries.
At Red Star Tours, our mission is to make every moment of your trip to Mallorca unforgettable. And for us, that starts from the first hour of the day. As a family business with years of experience in Mallorca's tourism sector, our team and guides travel the island daily, discovering its secrets and corners, including the best places to start the day.
We are not a generic portal; we are your local expert who takes care of you so you only have to enjoy.
At Red Star Tours, we have meticulously selected these breakfast spots in Palma, designed for every type of traveler and occasion, from those seeking tradition to those looking for a gourmet experience. These are not just "places for breakfast"; they are "experiences we recommend" so that your day in Mallorca starts on the right foot.
For those looking to immerse themselves in the essence of Mallorca from the first bite, the classics are a must-stop. It's not just about breakfast; it's about diving into a part of local history and heritage.
Founded around 1700, it is a historical reference for Mallorcan pastry and ice cream. Famous for its ensaimadas, cuartos, and hot chocolate.
Although many tourists go for its fame, the secret of Can Joan de S'Aigo, according to us, lies in its ability to transport you to an old Mallorca. It is a journey back in time and a testament to tradition. Surely, a product of its founding date, although much has changed since then.
If your Red Star Tours excursion to the Cuevas del Drach departs mid-morning, a quick but hearty breakfast at Can Joan de S'Aigo leaves you very close to the meeting points in the center of Palma. Why does it matter? Because it allows you to enjoy a Mallorcan icon without worrying about your tour schedule.
Our guides often recommend trying their chocolate with churros before joining one of our departures.

According to the experience of the Red Star Tours drivers, terraces with views usually have their calmest moment before 9 AM, offering a more serene start to the day before the crowd arrives. It is the perfect time to capture the photo without crowds, as most vacation travelers don't wake up that early.
Along Palma's extensive Paseo MarĂtimo (promenade), you will find numerous cafes and restaurants offering breakfasts with direct views of the Mediterranean Sea and the port. They are ideal for enjoying the sea breeze and watching boats go by while you have a coffee with toast or a fresh fruit bowl.
For the Red Star Tours team, having breakfast facing the sea on the Paseo MarĂtimo is an instant immersion in the Mediterranean spirit of Mallorca. It's a simple yet profound way to connect with the island.
