Where and What to Eat in Ibiza
Beyond the clubs, Ibiza eats surprisingly well, built on fresh fish, island herbs and long lunches by the sea. Here is what to order and where to find it.
Ibizan cooking rests on the same Mediterranean foundations as the rest of the Balearics, with fish pulled from local waters, almonds and herbs from the interior, and dishes that reward a slow pace. The island also has a famous beach restaurant culture, where a long lunch with your feet near the sand is half the point.
The three guides below cover the traditional dishes worth seeking out, the best chiringuitos and beach restaurants to eat them in, and the island's drinks, from hierbas ibicencas to a sundowner with a view. Take your time and follow the locals to the back street spots.
