The six best restaurants for winter weekend brunch in Ibiza
As the weather gets cooler in Ibiza, we round up the best spots for a cosy weekend lunch or brunch on the island.
House of WOW
Powerhouse hostess Nelleke Strijkers shows no signs of slowing down for winter as her beloved House of WOW flings open its doors for an all-day shindig every weekend that includes Sunday roasts, children’s entertainment, live music, free-flowing artisan cocktails and late-afternoon DJ sets from local girl Jo Mills.
Aguamadera
This cosy and cultured agroturismo in the northeast of Ibiza is a beautiful place to spend a firelit Sunday afternoon, with a locally sourced, wood-fired menu, vinyl-inspired DJ sets and a barefoot, bohemian community vibe that’s pure Ibiza campo.
Es Pins
Book ahead at this long-standing Ibiza favourite that’s packed every Sunday with local families at their weekly get-together. Grilled meats and local vegetables are the order of the day, along with local specialties such as the juicy ensalada crostes and Ibiza’s fabled guisat de peix.
Sa Capella
The Mambo Group’s deft renovation of the iconic Sa Capella deserves top marks, and an incredible first summer means they’re now remaining open over winter. Come on Saturdays and Sundays for a wood-fired lunch menu of local fish, steak and colourful vegetables beneath the soaring chapel roof.
Yalla
Ibiza has finally got the Middle Eastern restaurant of its dreams and Yalla has nestled seamlessly into the fabric of Santa Gertrudis. Expect cosy weekend brunches at pretty tables piled high with babaganoush, creamy feta, homemade pickles, chargrilled halloumi and harissa aubergine, along with the tastiest flatbreads this side of Lebanon.
Pâtisserie Margot
This charming French patisserie has the right idea, with a complimentary kids’ club from midday until 4pm on weekends, meaning that parents can kick back and enjoy the comforting and classic French brunch menu and a glass of champagne before a family stroll along sun-splashed Marina Botafoch.
