Buena Onda: Pancake Paradise by the Beach in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
If you’re strolling through Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and suddenly feel a deep need for the fluffiest pancake of your life, a croissant bursting at the seams, or a coffee that tastes like Italy in a cup… head straight to Buena Onda.
Just around the corner of Playa de Las Canteras, this sun-soaked café has a breezy terrace with front-row views of the Atlantic. It’s the kind of place that makes breakfast feel like a mini holiday.
🥞 Pancakes That Are Practically Pillows
Here’s what everyone talks about: the pancakes. Buena Onda’s stack is super fluffy, and always served the same way: fresh fruit, a light vanilla sauce, and just the right amount of sweetness to start your day happy. If pancakes could get fan mail, these would need their own inbox.
🥐 Croissants That Don’t Mess Around
They don’t bake in-house, but they know who to call. The croissants come straight from Bakery de Stefano and arrive golden, flaky, and filled with joyful things like a sweet homemade cream or a savoury fingerlicking good alternative. It’s breakfast with a bit of flair and a lot of flavour.
🍳 Shakshuka, But Make It Canarian-Italian
Buena Onda’s shakshuka isn’t the spicy kind. It’s their own breakfast remix, with a poached egg, creamy avocado, roasted vegetables, and a slab of homemade focaccia perfect for scooping it all up. It’s warming, wholesome, and just the right kind of savoury start.
☕ Coffee Done the Italian Way
Of course the coffee is good — they’re Italian. Every cup is smooth, strong, and served with style. Whether you’re team flat white or prefer a punchy espresso, you’ll be caffeinated and happy in no time.
📍 Where to Find the Fluff
Address: C. Párroco Francisco Rodríguez Rodríguez 4, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Just seconds from Las Canteras beach, with an ocean-view terrace that makes every bite taste a little more magical.
☀️ Final Forkful
Buena Onda is everything a great breakfast spot should be: chilled, delicious, and full of things you’ll want to eat again tomorrow. Bring a friend, grab a spot outside, and prepare to fall in love with pancakes all over again.
