We opened our first Café in Palma de Mallorca

Every week coffee beans leave our roastery on a journey across the world, supplying partner cafés and coffee lovers with the same incredible beans we enjoy here in Berlin. Last year, we took a step into the Middle East, opening our location in Dubai where the beans have been flying out the door. This year, staying a little closer to home, we looked to the Mediterranean! Is there any better combo than coffee and glorious sunshine?

In everything we do, we are motivated to present the story of each individual farmer, giving them a face and a profile within the speciality coffee community that depends on them. At the other end of the journey, this depends on being close to our customers. As the speciality scene in Spain grows more and more interesting, it felt like the perfect time to bring our devotion to quality and transparency to the country.

Our first café in Spain, we opened the doors to our Palma de Mallorca location in July 2022. In between the beach and the tapas bars, visitors and locals alike have been loving our brews.

Our Berlin DNA

Having designed our new space with a modern, modular theme, we have created the perfect setting to focus on our favourite Hario V60 and signature La Marzocco Linea espresso machine. From a classic espresso or flat white, to one of our signature hand brews or an iced drink to help beat the heat, the DNA of our Berlin cafés can now be found in Mallorca. With windows that open onto the street outside, our cosy space is flooded with light: an invitation to linger and talk coffee with our baristas and fellow coffee lovers. You will find our full portfolio of single origin coffees lining the shelves: a chance to sample the very best beans before taking them back to your finca or picking up a coffee lovers gift for home.

“The Barn is a coffee paradise!” - Simona

As with all our cafés, building the right dynamic behind the bar was crucial. Leading the team is Simona: originally from Italy, she has an incredible breadth of knowledge and experience within speciality coffee, most recently roasting in London. Drawn to Palma by the gorgeous Mediterranean climate and the chance to work with the very best coffees, her energy and passion have kept the café buzzing through these busy summer months. Alongside Simona are Ernesto, from Guatemala, and Julia, from Poland, who is in charge of recreating some of the cookies and cakes that have attracted some devoted fans here in Berlin. With years of speciality coffee and hospitality experience between them, the attention to detail behind the bar is just what we were looking for!

Celebrating The Journey

Settling into the historic centre of Palma has been a blast and having made it through the busiest part of the summer, we will be celebrating the opening of our Mallorca café in September. With a big part of the team joining from Berlin, we will officially launch this beautiful location in style!

 

Be sure to stop by on the 17th of September to celebrate all the work that has gone into bringing The Barn to Mallorca so far. As our community grows ever bigger, keep an eye out for updates on more exciting news… Next stop Korea!
