KhalillouOctober 13, 2015Historically rich place to sit and observe the day unfolding before you indulging with the variety of rich and freshly made cakes and pastries! Coffee is good but not outstanding.Upvoted 3 weeks ago
YinApril 4, 2015Beautiful interior and special coffee bar. Coffee was alright, many Maltese delights - delicious nougat. Beware of opening hours, it opens later than stated.
- Globetrottergirls DaniApril 12, 2014A Malta institution.. Come here for some traditional Maltese pastries or pastizzi and enjoy the beautiful interior of the historic building!Upvoted Sep 15
One of the most iconic Caffetteria in Malta. Quality foods, coffees and even delicious "souvenirs" to take home.
K BMarch 7Honey rings (Qaghaq ta’ l-Ghasel) are a local delicacy - pastry filled with black treacle, marmalade, orange peel, spices and honey - a symbol of Malta
Nafi DiopDecember 18, 2017Everything is way too sweet, and the pastries are not so good, I am a little disappointed about the lemon meringue, but very pretty and lovely place.
Κωνσταντίνος ΣουλελέςApril 23, 2016Walking down the republic street in valletta you will bump into it on your left hand, it's good and cheap for take away cheesecakes but it's not worth it to spend time and money inside whatsoever..
Rami IsmailJanuary 11, 2017Lively on a Valletta main shopping street, with great Maltese ftira and other breakfast and lunch specialties.
- Dora NasAugust 27, 2016It was a little bit expensive because it is located at the centre of Valletta. However the food was very nice!
Camille SalinasAugust 14, 2012Love everything about this restau! Great foods, desserts, location, friendly staffs and the interrior of the caffe.
İmran TecimerDecember 23, 2015This place has amazing cake all of so delicious and coffees are very nice...- Daniel BlumenthalApril 14, 2018Nice place to sit. But warm coke and cold coffee paired with semi friendly staff.
Stefan ButtigiegDecember 23, 2012The classic maltese coffee shop which is synonymous with Valletta. A must visit!
Nikos VreOctober 4, 2016I am from Greece,I was there in this historic cafe on July 2016.nice coffee but lots of flies....
No More HalosOctober 30, 2018May be the oldest coffee in Malta but everything was below average. Food, coffee, service, cleanliness, wifi connection.
Dieter vinkJanuary 1, 2012Dnt go. the staff work more than 10hour shifts with only one 20minute break.... b4 u say anything, just imagine having to put yp with that! Boycott!
Jurgita GrigoraviciuteDecember 15, 2018The halve tarte was not fresh. Matese peach liquer was very good 😊
Carmine GalloMay 21, 2011If you're talking business in this historic caffe(built in 1837), don't whip out the Powerpoint. It just doesn't seem right. More presentation tips at
- Reuben ChircopJuly 18, 2013Second floor next to rest rooms stairs feels much cooler in the summer heat.
Kristof DewildeMarch 18, 2017We had to wait over 40 minutes before we could order. This place has too few waiters, and their waiter-table system is awful. Avoid at all cost as soon as the place is half full I'd say.
Christine HallFebruary 27, 2020Place is crowded and service is rushed but you have to go at least once.
