Traveler reviews
Dominik Gönc
★★★★★a month agoOne of the nicest cafes we visited while in Malta. The place is decorated beautifully and the staff is very friendly. We ordered two different sandwiches and they were fresh, well loaded, affordable and absolutely delicious. Would highly recommend!

★★★★★4 months agoThis museum café is a real hidden gem! The coffee was surprisingly good, and they had a nice selection of pastries that looked freshly baked. All the sandwiches are great as well. I loved their Maltees Coffee. It was the perfect spot to recharge after a few hours of exploring the velleta. The atmosphere was quite relaxed, making it easy to just sit back and enjoy the moment. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area!
