Molta Barra - Palma

Palma de Mallorca, mid January 2024 . This is a mainly bear bar favored by younger local crowd to get together for drinks and pintxos before going out for dinner. It opens at 7 pm and fills in within minutes even though it is a pretty large space. Once it's full, it is incredibly loud. 80 types of bear, bar tenders work very hard, but ordering at the bar is very confusing as there is no line, just a huge crrowd around the bar, so try to get eye contact with a bartender who will then take your order. Pintxos are displayed in three groups with meat, with seafood/fish, and vegetarian . 80 types of bear, mainly bottled, only 4 on draft. You order at the bar, pay and take your drinks&food to the table if you came at 7 pm and was lucky to grab a table . There is also a dinner menu only in Spanish . Pintxos were ok and very cheap just over Euro2 a piece we tried from all three groups . Local draft bear and a bottled cidra were good. We made a mistake to stay for dinner and ordered Nachos with cheese and pork and Tzatziki With Friends from the main menu. It was a disaster. Nachos were absolutely terrible. I think we got the bottom of the bag as all chips were small broken bits, it was difficult to eat, I had to use a fork !!! . The melted cheese is the greasy tasteless American orange cheddar, minced pork was almost unnoticeable. And the heartburn afterwards...... Tzatziki &Friends was a platter with pita bread pieces and three small dishes with yogurt which is apparently tzatziki , veeery salty humus, and pretty good tapenade chopped black olives . It was an interesting experience

Younger crowd than us and service was slow, but great ambience, cold beer and tasty pintxos.
