About
On Menorca, Essencia Brunch and Lunch sits at Carrer de Bastió, 29, 07703 Maó, Illes Balears, in the island's capital. It occupies a spot in the centre of Maó, within easy reach of the harbour and the town's main streets.
Essencia Brunch and Lunch is known for brunch and lunch served through the middle of the day. First-time visitors should expect a café setting in central Maó, with the Instagram account at https://www.instagram.com/essenciamenorca/ as its online presence. Visitor feedback has produced a rating of 4.1 out of 5 across 263 reviews, a substantial sample for a café in the capital.
Getting there from elsewhere on Menorca is straightforward: Mahón and Ciutadella anchor the island's road network, and Cala Galdana, Cala Blanca and Binibeca all lie within driving distance. Cala en Bosch, Cala Macarella and Cala Mitjana sit along the same southern coast. Mahón cheese from Menorca and gin from the same island reflect the archipelago's farming and trading history, both worth seeking out alongside a meal.
Migrating birds pass through the islands, and shearwaters nest on the cliffs, so spring and autumn bring birdlife to the coast around Menorca. Tourism expanded rapidly from the 1960s, making the archipelago one of the Mediterranean's busiest holiday regions, which means central Maó fills quickly in high summer. The islands are limestone and sandstone, with the Serra de Tramuntana range in Mallorca and flatter ground in Formentera, though Menorca's own terrain is gentler than Mallorca's.
