La Payesa — Restaurant in Ciutadella

€26.80 for 1/2 litre of sangria, 1 large beer & 1 Fanta. Good prices for it's harbour front location.

Friendly staff.

Beer (€5.50) and soft drinks (€3.30) are very well priced, especially given it's harbour front location. The sangria is a little on the pricey side though, a glass is €10 and 1/2 litre is €18, not sure about a full litre.

It's only got an outdoor seating area but sheltered and unsheltered options are available. You've got a choice of "dining tables" and comfy casual tables which would likely be found in your garden, but they fit the scene well.

The toilet is upstairs with no lift available.

We come to this bar every time we're in the Cuitadella for a drink on the harbour front and just to relax for an hour or so.

When clearly we ordered M/W.

Very disappointed guys was returning to the island after nearly 30 years and for a Chef not to care on how he presents is dissapointing 6/10 must...

Nice location looking out to the boats in the harbour. We were early, 5.30ish and other resturants hadn't opened for service so we picked la Payesa. The starter was excellent, garlic prawns and scallops. Unfortunately the mains were a bit of a letdown. Steak undercooked despite being sent back, my wife will eat near raw meat so she ate it, and the mixed paella had more bones than meat. The rabbit bits were all bone. It was overcooked as it looked like it had been put under the grill for too long. Desert was a lemon sorbet which was more like a slushy but they put gin in mine and it was very nice. A shame the main let down an otherwise ok meal. Service was OK and the staff...
