Europe Spain La Palma Cafes El Jardin de la Sal (Fuencaliente)

Overview

El Jardin de la Sal (Fuencaliente)

The guide was updated: 2024-09-17

You'd be wrong to take El Jardin de la Sal for a tourist trap, despite the fact that it hardly has any semblance of competition in the vicinity. The outdoor rooftop terrace overlooks the salt lakes and invites for a drink (the cafe serves local wines and draft beers) and a bite - salads, seafood, potatoes, and more.

La Vitamina (Los Llanos)

La Vitamina (Los Llanos)

Finding alternatives to the meat- and seafood-heavy La Palma dining scene may prove challenging, which is what makes La Vitamina's selection so appealing - the menu lists a large variety of vegan and vegetarian meals, with a multitude of fresh fruit juices to complement your choice.

Frida (Los Llanos)

Frida (Los Llanos)

The quaint Los Llanos cafe serves a delightful selection of dishes, sandwiches, light bites and dessert - from cake to ice cream, Frida has it all and more. Breakfasts deserve a special mention - do try and have one here if you happen to be staying in or passing through the area.

El Cafe de Don Manuel (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

El Cafe de Don Manuel (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

Run by award-winning barista Rayco Rodriguez, El Cafe de Don Manuel offers up some of the best brews on the island (and, arguably, all of Spain) in its compact courtyard just off Calle O'Daly. Try the signature barraquito - a coffee with milk, cinnamon, and citrus undertones. Seating is limited but worth the wait.

Tasca Catalina (El Paso)

Tasca Catalina (El Paso)

Upholding the La Palma tradition of eateries with a view, Tasca Catalina is set at an elevation and offers al fresco terrace seating overlooking the hillsides and water. Order a few tapas plates to share (five or so must be enough to feed a party of two) and sample a few dishes at once.

Bar Parada (Fuencaliente)

Bar Parada (Fuencaliente)

The unassuming cafe is – quite literally – a stop which most make when passing through the area. Apart from offering travelers a welcome respite, Parada sells delightful almond cookies (Almendrados) made in-house (these can be picked up at the tiny adjacent store).

Bio Cafe Finca Aloe (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

Bio Cafe Finca Aloe (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

This hidden gem of a cafe is one you must come across when hiking through Las Tricias – getting here is only possible on foot, as no paved roads lead up to Finca Aloe, a green hideaway that serves predominantly organic food from its very own garden. Organic products, such as spreads and cheese, are up for sale and take-away.

Granier (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

Granier (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

This delightful Santa Cruz bakery sells some of the freshest pastries in town, with sweet and savoury varieties on offer. Muffins, croissants, layered dough pastries and – in the savory department – pizzas and sandwiches, along with an extensive coffee selection. Exceptional quality to price ratio.
