Boasting a cosy, cafe-style ambience and super cool decor like custom-made Moroccan tiles lining the back wall, mismatched furnishings such as Javanese school chairs and recycled wood tables plus luxe designer pieces and cool cane lampshades hang overhead, the restaurant is the brainchild of KsaR owners (and design gurus) Alberto Cortes and Yvonne Hulst. Conveniently, KsaR is right next door, so you can indulge in a bout of retail therapy while you’re in the neighbourhood!

Posted on by

Looking for the perfect, cosy Ibiza winter lunch spot? La Cava – situated in the heart of Ibiza town on the busy Vara De Rey shopping strip – provides the perfect solution for those who work or meet in town (with WiFi!) or those shopaholics who simply want somewhere to hang out while the boutiques close for siesta!

From Monday to Friday between 1pm and 4pm, La Cava offers a special ‘menu del dia’ – three set courses for just 11.50€ – with five different starter, main and dessert options to select from. When you do the math, that means you could eat here every day without having to try the same thing twice… or on the contrary, you can come back again and again if there’s something you really love! Whatever the reason… we love La Cava for lunch in the Ibiza winter season.
