Answer

What makes traditional bars and small restaurants in Palma disappear?

In Palma, traditional places often struggle with rising rents, short lease agreements, and higher operating costs. Many also face competition from tourist-oriented concepts that can pay more or adapt faster to changing demand. When a business depends on regular local customers, even small changes in the neighborhood can have a big impact.
