Historically 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.

Beautiful interior and special coffee bar. Coffee was alright, many Maltese delights - delicious nougat. Beware of opening hours, it opens later than stated.

A Malta institution.. Come here for some traditional Maltese pastries or pastizzi and enjoy the beautiful interior of the historic building!

One of the most iconic Caffetteria in Malta. Quality foods, coffees and even delicious "souvenirs" to take home.

Honey rings (Qaghaq ta’ l-Ghasel) are a local delicacy - pastry filled with black treacle, marmalade, orange peel, spices and honey - a symbol of Malta

Everything 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.

Walking 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..

Lively on a Valletta main shopping street, with great Maltese ftira and other breakfast and lunch specialties.

It was a little bit expensive because it is located at the centre of Valletta. However the food was very nice!

Nice place to sit. But warm coke and cold coffee paired with semi friendly staff.

The classic maltese coffee shop which is synonymous with Valletta. A must visit!

May be the oldest coffee in Malta but everything was below average. Food, coffee, service, cleanliness, wifi connection.

Good for takeaway!Cheesecake costs only 60 cents and it's very flavorful.

If 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 www.carminegallo.com

Caffe Cordina
Kristof DewildeMarch 18, 2017
We 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.
Ken BergerFebruary 13, 2016
Maybe my fav lunch spot in Malta.
Christine HallFebruary 27, 2020
Place is crowded and service is rushed but you have to go at least once.
