Can Costa, Traditional Mallorcan restaurant in Valldemossa, Spain
Can Costa is a restaurant in Valldemossa that serves traditional Mallorcan cuisine made with fresh ingredients from nearby farms. The menu focuses on dishes like roasted suckling pig, lamb, rabbit, and regional stews prepared with seasonal products.
The restaurant building dates back to 1276, when it originally served as a watchtower named Can Costa. Over the centuries, the structure was transformed and eventually became the dining establishment it is today.
The restaurant honors Mallorcan cooking traditions through recipes passed down in the family, using ingredients that local farmers and fishermen bring to the region. This approach keeps island food customs alive in daily dining.
The restaurant has two distinct dining spaces: a vine-covered outdoor terrace for warm days and an indoor room next to a traditional oven for cooler seasons. Both areas offer guests a comfortable setting with seating at traditional tables.
In the indoor area, guests can dine beside a historic olive press that shows how oil was made on the island in earlier times. This old machinery is still visible today and reminds visitors of the region's farming past.
