Menorca restaurant guide
Where to eat well in Menorca, area by area and with no schedule to keep: the lobster-stew houses of Fornells, the rice dishes and fish of Maó harbour, the waterside tables of Cales Fonts and Ciutadella, and chef-led cooking on inland estates, including the places recommended by the 2026 Michelin Guide and the Repsol Suns. Every restaurant comes with what it is, where it is, roughly what it costs, what to order and whether you need to book.
