Why I send people here
Bar Alaska is pure Palma and what it used to be a long time ago – no gloss, no gimmicks, just history served with an ice cold beer and a wink. Sitting right on Plaça del Mercat since the 1930s, it’s the kind of spot where time hasn’t rushed. When the council tried to close it, 3020 people formally opposed it via a petition. By the way, one of the best terraces for people-watching under the shade of old trees. The drinks are simple, the prices fair, and part of the city’s cultural memory.
