Holidays are all about lingering over a long lunch in the sunshine, pausing for a coffee and soaking up the local life by 'people watching' or enjoying a special evening meal in an ambient atmopshere.
Ibiza in the winter can give you all this and more as some of the best restaurants remain open all year - thanks to the Ibicencans who embrace cafe society and dine out on a regular basis.
To give you a starter we've selected some places you may want to try... but don't forget to get out and about down those side streets as you'll find some hidden gems that will enhance your whole holiday experience.
Our Ibiza Spotlight Restaurant Guide is now even better with a terrific new 'open now' feature in the top menu. Simply click on this and you will be able to see immediately which restaurants are open right now.
In winter, the island restaurants entice customers with lots of special themed events offering gourmet three-course menus for lunch and dinner at very reasonable prices in multiple restaurants and bars. Expect everything from tapas and pintxos to fine dining menus with local seasonal ingredients.
'Tapas (or pintxos) and a drink' events are popular, such as Pintxa San Antonio in March and April and Cañas'n'Roll which offers addition of live rock music in the bars of San José in November and December. Restaurat in San Antonio, which runs at the same time celebrates a star local ingredient each year. Make sure to check our Ibiza events calendar regularly whilst on Ibiza to see when they are running.
