Where to get a meal on 17th "Pines"

For those of you who may be wondering about where you can get something to eat on the 17th after the "Pines" i have made a list which i will add to as and when i get more info:-

Most of the Mallorcan bars/restaurants will be open.
CAN BALACHE..will be serving roast dinners after the Pines has finished.
HELL'S KITCHEN..roast dinners and staying open later than normal.
JK's..kitchen open all day, menu as normal.
THE NAGS HEAD..serving roast dinners, they tell me they are also open for the "Fires" and have lots planned.
 
San Antoni

Thanks for the info Sparky!

Very helpful! We are coming out on Friday from Gatwick (fingers crossed that there's no more snow before then!) and hope to see you around the port during the festival. :)
 
sparky... ur talkin like a local !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
com'on, give us 'San Antoni virgins' a break here, 'after the Pines' ????....so this is when a pine tree arrives...yes?( cos u did say something about a pine tree arriving... but I thought u meant at 12-12.30 midnight ? ... we surely dont have to wait that long to eat ?!?

Can we start again ? ( or is me just being thick?)

Is there anywhere that we can get the background info on the events? ( and plz... u do enuff already, so if u know a link, fine, if not... we will just go with the flow and work it out as we go along ! lol )

CathB...Im a wee bit limited cos I got my 2 x 79y/o(+wheelchair) groupies in tow :) and not sure how it will pan out, but it would be really nice if we could all meet up, maybe early evening on the 16th?
Perhaps, Sparky, u could co-ordinate/advise ? (again !... sorry)

LOL, sorry Miriam "The Pines" is on sunday 17th at midday-ish, the tree will be brought over from Formentor in the morning and it's dragged around the Port, it arrives outside the church at about noon and then the guys try to climb up it. Will let you know later in the week about meeting up.
 
Med777, I think your parents would enjoy seeing the parade of animals in the old town,takes place 1000 Sunday morning and is on a much larger scale than the port. Then there is enough time to make it back down to watch the pine being brought from the beach. We usually eat lunch while it goes around the port and gather to watch the guys trying to climb it. Excellent firework display to music on Sat pm at Sa Pobla for those who might want to venture further afield.
 
Miriam, Will pop over and say hello, we were on the same flight time a month ago and it arrived 40 mins early, so you should have plenty of time to get organized. Although we've been going out in the winter for over 15 years, this is our 1st visit to the festival, so we'll take it as it comes:)
 
this will be our first visit to the festival too and am really looking forward to it..just hope no delays as we are not due in to palma until 5:40 (pm)...so as mentioned before it will be a very quick unpacking of the essentials then head off out.have just had a quick look at the 15 day forecast on Accuweather and it seems to have improved as the week had gone on stating weather for next week varies between 12 and 17 degrees..hope this is right as it will seem tropical after what we have just had ;)
 
Cathb, As i've mentioned, been going over in the winter (1st feb) for the last 15 yrs, we've had all sorts of weather but always managed a least a couple of days of nice weather.
 
Thank you Chris, it makes life so much easier when u have a wheelchair in tow, to be able to plan in advance, ur info is very much appreciated !

smiddy, look forward to it and promise to try and be halfway civil ( I thought there was only ONE 6.40 in a day :( ) !

CathB... I've got everything crossed for u flite to be on time !

sparky... It would appear that I now owe u 2 drinks ! one for the one u bought me... and one for looking after my OH !

Lorenzo...since u appear to be arriving first, I think u better organise our table & get the first round in ! :D ( only joking ! )

roll on Saturday !

San Antoni

Hi Miriam, hope you arrive ok with your folks!

If Sparky is happy to come up with a suitable meeting time & place, hopefully we could all gather for a well earned drink/chat. :)
 
Hi, most of the activity for the "Fires" will be in the square, although i plan to go native and roam around. Would 7pm in Club Cultural be ok for you. :D

BTW have seen the forecast on Spanish tv and it's looking good guys, ok it might be windy but there is no rain forecast ;).

Soooooo jealous

Had promised ourselves we would come out for San Antoni this year but then realised daughter has GCSE Bio module tomorrow and Chemistry on Monday

And the really sad news is that next Jan it will be AS's and the year after A2's so the first chance I have of experiencing San Antoni is 2013 ..... what a pest .................. In my day you did your O levels in one go in the June, you dossed all through your lower IVth and then panic'd around Christmas of your upper IV when you realised the grades you needed for uni and worked like hell until May when you sat your exams .....


So Sparky .... I'll need a full report so that I can feel just a biut a part of it
 
Really jealous too. I would just love to be there. I'm in the same situation re my daughter's GCSEs as you CD, but with a son in Year 10, I make it 2015 before I'll get there!

Have a great time everyone and let us poor souls who can't be there know how it goes.
