Cantina is located adjacent to Hauser & Wirth Menorca on Illa del Rei, an island off Mahon harbour which is home to a decommissioned 18th-century naval hospital and a group of outbuildings.
While the restaurant kitchen is located in the 18th century building that once housed the hospital’s cooking area, the restaurant and bar are outdoors. The tables are found shaded amid an olive grove and with views to the surrounding nature and harbour.
Cantina celebrates Menorca’s culinary heritage with menus using locally sourced ingredients to serve bar snacks and tapas alongside a selection of sharing plates of fresh fish and seafood, rice dishes and meat and vegetables cooked over fire.
You’ll find Cantina bar and restaurant on Illa del Rei next to Hauser & Wirth art centre and the hospital museum. As we are located on the island, the restaurant is accessible only by boat. The shuttle boat runs frequently from Moll de Llevant 61 in Mahon port and takes 15 minutes. Tickets are valid for both ways with an open return and season passes are available
Illa del Rei is a public island set within the port of Mahon that is home to myriad flora and fauna, a decommissioned naval hospital, the Hauser & Wirth gallery and our restaurant Cantina. It gained its name as the place where King Alfonso III landed in 1287 when he arrived to conquer the island of Menorca.
