El Bungalow
El Bungalow is a restaurant and building in Palma on the Balearic Islands, built on a rocky foundation near the beach. The structure feels solid and well-maintained with open spaces inside and outdoor seating that faces the sand.
The building started as a simple home given as a wedding gift to a family member and later became a restaurant. It has been run by multiple generations of the same family over many decades.
El Bungalow takes its name from a simple vacation house, reflecting how the place welcomes visitors in a relaxed way. The restaurant functions as an informal gathering spot where families and regular guests come together to spend time and create shared memories.
The place is open mainly during the day and early evening, making it a good rest stop after walking around the city. Its location near different parts of Palma makes it a convenient spot to spend time.
The restaurant faced demolition orders from authorities in Madrid without clear explanations being provided to the owners. The family has appealed the decision and gained support from local residents who view it as part of Mallorca's cultural heritage.
