Hello Everyone
I have just returned from a lovely week in Pollensa. The weather as you know was very mixed but it didn't spoil our week. We had my elderly dad with us and our 2 young children so we didn't go anywhere fancy.
It was fairly chilly in the evenings so we decided to have our main meal at lunch time most days.
Here is a brief list of where we went.
Sunday lunch - Pepe's in Llenaire.
We had the MDD which was 14.50 (usually 9.50 i think but more pricey because it was Sunday). Food was ok but service excellent.
Monday - stayed in the villa (which was fantastic) and had a bbq at lunch time and then went out to Alcudia harbour and had a lovely meal out on the Marina. Very good value. I thought that the prices in these restaurants seem slightly lower than those around PP.
Tuesday - we struggled to find somewhere this day. Is Tuesday a popular day for being closed? We ended up at Bar Joker. Cheap, cheerful, basic - nothing exciting but lovely view of course.
Wednesday - It was pouring with rain this day. We headed off to Celler El Moli on the outskirts of Pollensa - I had seen their advert on this website. This is the only reason I am writing my report because I wanted to tell you all how utterly fabulous this restaurant is.
It's like a tardis. Inside it is enormous. Anyway it was absolutely packed and the whole time we were there people were queueing to get in. The MDD was 8 euros!!! The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was brilliant, it was noisy and exciting - full of so many different people, workmen, businessmen, locals and just a hand full of Brits. It was just fabulous.
The tables were already set with a bottle of wine and bottle of water, then came the bread and olives. There were 3 choices for starters and main course and about 8 choices for pudding. Everything was superbly cooked and delicious and the waiter and waitresses were just lovely and helped us understand the very Spanish menu.
Thursday - La Victoria MDD 13.50. Not particularly great. Only 2 choices as usual and unfriendly service. View amazing.
Friday - our last day, back to Celler el Moli for another fabulous experience. menu had changed completely so lots of different things to try - fabulous 8 euros again.
We then drove to PP and sat right by the sea outside the Capri Hotel with more wine and coffee. Absolutely beautiful setting.
Saturday - latish flight home. Cleaners arrived at 9.10am (not impressed) so we went for a drive around the island and ended up at Cala Bona. Had lunch by the waters edge - very, very pretty but food and atmosphere revolting!
I'm sorry I haven't been more detailed with our food but I really just wanted to tell you about Celler el Moli. I can't believe we have never been before.
Can't wait to return in the Spring.
