Hidden away gem located in a quiet area overlooking the Msida Yeaht Marina. Top class service from very sociable waiters. Good selection of cocktails made using fresh ingredients - Mojit and Aperol Spritz exceed my expectations. My only experience of food is the bruschetta which is one of the best in Malta. Overall the atmosphere and and service make this one of my favourite places in Malta - I'll be definitely coming back. Thank you Peter.

Just bought some croissants, and some other goodies for our office staff. Everything has that home made taste, freshly baked every day, the croissants are filled up with cream of your choice on the spot. The staff is very friendly and professional; I will definitely come back, highly recommended! ;)

Just a very nice, efficient little café. The food is always good and it’s close to the marina. The grilled ham and cheese sandwich is highly recommended.
