Es Cranc

The most established waterfront restaurant in Fornells, with a long reputation for Menorcan lobster stew. The caldereta de llagosta is the reason to come; everything else on the menu is fine but secondary. The terrace tables overlooking the bay fill early, especially at lunch.

A story
Es Cranc has been serving caldereta de llagosta since 1976 and is widely regarded as the best address in Fornells for the dish. The restaurant catches its own lobsters — the tank near the entrance is the proof — which means the stew is as fresh as it gets anywhere on the island. Booking ahead in July and August is essential; the place fills with Menorcans who make the drive specifically for this meal.
