Very nice place to stop for an early breakfast - I got the ham and cheese on toast. I was so surprised that the meal was fresh, tasty and satisfying. The coffee was good and the service was prompt enough for me to get to work on time too.

Place often the haunt of locals, decently priced and large outside seating available. Had the chicken pie and a lungo

Great place for a snack with a good sized patio for outdoor dining. Wide selection of coffee served nice and hot and a variety of inexpensive toasties, wraps, breakfast, sandwiches, baked goods, and meal options. Probably the best cafe location in San Gwann, with a view of a good stretch of the busy area on a corner with lots of foot traffic. Friendly staff and nice cafe atmosphere inside with wood touches, glass displays filled with tasty treats, and an all around professional and well-established feel. Best value restaurant San Gwann

Much of positive surprise. Place looks poor but quality of service and food is much better than I have met anywhere in Malta. Cakes are A-MA-ZING! Tastes like homemade for a relatively very low price. Coffee is very good, americano could be larger.
