In-Depth Information
(Avinguda d'Argentina 5; 7pm-2.30am; )
This self-proclaimed 'urban vintage bar' has a
green-lit beer fridge, 1960s decor (including totally groovy wallpaper), velour sofas and
a wonderfully retro look. The music's mostly indie and the laid-back crowd seems oblivi-
ous to the traffic pounding past the footpath tables. The day's cocktail special goes for
€5.
Idem Café
CAFE
(Carrer de Sant Magí 15A; 9pm-3am)
Slink into this bordello-chic cocoon of deep, dark-
red velvet, chandeliers and baroque mirrors, where some of the wall art is risqué. With a
fabulously burlesque look and pre-clubbing vibe, Idem is a unique spot to sip a mojito or
gin.
Hostal Cuba Colonial
BAR
(Carrer de Sant Magí 1; 8am-2am Sun-Thu, to 4am Fri & Sat)
Inhabiting an early 20th-cen-
tury Santa Catalina landmark for sailors passing through Palma, this place has been re-
born as a watering hole of a more sophisticated kind. You'll find everything from coffee
to full meals, and a chill-out zone on the 1st floor.
Novo Café Lisboa
LIVE MUSIC
(Carrer de Sant Magí 33; 9pm-3am Thu, 10pm-4am Fri & Sat)
The curved timber bar gives
this place a homey appeal. When some Latin and bossa nova, indie rock and electropop
sounds get thrown on, it gets even better. It fills up quickly on evenings when live music
is staged.
Passeig Marítim & Western Palma
