Local cuisine: how we are committed to local produce in Ibiza
0%
At Social Point Ibiza, we believe that every dish tells a story. A story that begins on land, in the sea, and in the hands of those who farm and fish with passion. Supporting local cuisine is not a trend but an honest way of understanding gastronomy: with respect, awareness, and love for our surroundings. Discover why choosing local produce is a true experience.
Local cuisine is based on the use of ingredients that are grown, caught, or produced near the restaurant. It’s a philosophy that aims to reduce the distance between the origin of the food and the plate on your table. In a world where we often don’t know where our food comes from, going local is a way to reconnect with authenticity.
Beyond geographical proximity, this approach supports a direct relationship with producers, seasonal cooking, and a circular economy. In Ibiza, an island with a strong identity and a vibrant farming and fishing tradition, this way of cooking holds even more value.
Nothing compares to the flavor of a freshly picked tomato or a fish caught that same morning. When we cook with local ingredients, flavors are more vibrant, more intense, more real. And it shows. At Social Point Ibiza, we use ingredients that haven’t traveled hundreds of kilometers — they come straight from the field or the sea to our kitchen. That freshness translates into dishes with identity, where every bite speaks of Ibiza.
Using local ingredients means reducing transport, packaging, and energy consumption. Fewer emissions, less waste, and more respect for the environment. On an island like Ibiza, where sustainability is not just a buzzword but a necessity, cooking with local products is a commitment to both the present and the future.
Behind every cheese, every organic egg, or every bunch of herbs are people who care for the land, the animals, or the sea with dedication. By choosing local ingredients, we support farmers, fishers, and small artisans who are part of Ibiza’s soul. At Social Point Ibiza, we believe in a food economy that creates value here, at home.
Every week, we work with ingredients sourced from our closest surroundings: vegetables from organic farms, seasonal fruits, ethically raised meats, and freshly caught fish from the market. Each ingredient goes through a conscious selection process, always aiming for quality, freshness, and respect for the natural cycle.
We’ve built a network of trust with producers on the island. People who share our vision and with whom we maintain relationships based on closeness and dialogue. We like to know how a vegetable was grown, when a cheese was harvested, or what traditional techniques are behind each ingredient.
In our kitchen, the ingredient is the star. We create recipes where each flavor can shine clearly, without gimmicks or disguises. We like the raw ingredient to speak for itself, and that’s why we adapt our menus to the rhythm of the seasons and the actual availability of the product.
Thanks to our collaboration with local producers, we’re able to offer an authentic gastronomic experience where Mediterranean flavors and the essence of Ibiza are always present. Fresh vegetables, aromatic herbs, local olive oils, and seafood inspire us to create balanced dishes, full of character and honesty.
You can taste all these dishes and many more in a relaxed and good-vibes-filled setting at Social Point Ibiza, our space nestled in nature, where music, community, and gastronomy come together. Whether you’re coming with friends, family, or to enjoy a sunset, we’ll be here with honest dishes made with love.

In a globalized world where everything seems increasingly alike, choosing local is an act of identity. It’s about valuing what surrounds us, protecting our resources, and making a positive impact on our community. At Social Point Ibiza, we are clear: local cuisine is not just a culinary choice, it’s a way of life. And we love sharing it with you, one plate at a time.
