Restaurant
Ponderosa Beach
Playa de Muro

Ponderosa Beach serves contemporary Mediterranean food directly on the sand at Ses Casetes des Capellans, on Playa de Muro. The business dates to 1967 and remains connected to the family who established it. Its appeal is the combination of a relaxed beach setting with a menu that gives substantial attention to rice, seafood and Mallorcan ingredients.
The current rice selection uses bomba rice from Molino Roca and is designed for at least two people. Options include cuttlefish with red prawns, black rice with squid, a peeled-shellfish señorito rice and a preparation with Mallorcan vegetables. The Barroco rice combines scallops, red prawns, langoustines, cuttlefish and mussels. Ask about the dishes available on your chosen date before deciding how to share the meal.
The starters show a broader range of influences. Mediterranean squid comes with orange-and-almond allioli; mussels are cooked with ginger, coconut milk and yellow chilli; croaker ceviche uses avocado and coconut. Grilled bream and John Dory provide alternatives to rice, while the menu also includes beef, slow-cooked pork and vegetable dishes. Allergen symbols and some adapted options are published, though specific requirements should still be discussed with the team.
Reserve through the restaurant's own booking system and confirm the season's service dates. Ponderosa is particularly suited to making lunch part of a beach day, with time to enjoy the shoreline before or after eating. The wine and cocktail lists give further choices for those settling in for a leisurely meal by the water.
