MELOUNGE
Read moreA number of factors led us to select this Melounge, which is both a steakhouse and a cocktail bar. First and foremost, its location, on the edge of Spinola Bay, allows you to sip cocktails in a quiet spot, which makes it an exceptional venue given the din that reigns most of the time in St Julian's. Each cocktail is created with great attention to detail. Another plus is that you can enjoy one of their famous burgers with friends. Nostalgic diners can also enjoy a selection of French desserts.
JUUL'S BAR
Read moreThis is THE friendly bar in the area, recommended for those who don't like loud dancing and the commercial hits that often resonate in St Julian and Paceville. Here, you will have only reggae in the background, rock steady in the dance hall, two bars with friendly waiters to order beers and cocktails (strawberry mojito well dosed, with real strawberry pulp), and outside a few tables taken over and the big staircase of this pedestrian crossing colonized by the bar customers who chat quietly on the steps.
TRABUXU WINE BAR
Read moreHoused in a vaulted cellar, this wine bar offers a wide range of fine local vintages as well as international, Italian and French wines. In the evening, nibbles are served on platters, with exceptional cheeses and charcuterie, as well as homemade dishes. This address is also particularly appreciated for its mini-terrace on the stairs. It's a good idea to go there almost as soon as it opens, as it fills up very quickly and stays busy until late into the night, having become a benchmark for Valletta nightlife.
MALTA 5D
Read moreSome may find it a little expensive for the length of the show. We thought it was a real success. Take your place as soon as you arrive in Malta! You'll get your first playful glimpse: embodied as a Maltese falcon, you'll soar over the archipelago and travel through the centuries. The show satisfies all ages. The sensations and emotions experienced simply make you want to go and explore the rest, in situ, through sites, monuments, landscapes... We highly recommend it!
THE BRIDGE BAR
Read moreA small neighbourhood bar that has been frequented for a very long time by both locals and tourists. The reason, its live jazz sessions which take place every Friday evening. The band plays on the little bridge outside, near the terrace of the bar. The setting and the atmosphere are magical: cushions on the stairs of a small alley full of charm, candles and food which also takes place in the street at the end of the day, just before the concert. If you want a table and a chair, come very early on Friday.
THE DUBLINER
Read moreIt's a real Irish pub that opened in 2004, to make sure that Guinness would be well served by professionals and since then it's rightly reputed to be the most authentic of the place in this field. It is located opposite the many restaurants in Spinola Bay, so it is on the quietest side of the street. The décor is simple and warm. Upstairs, a bar-lounge and a dining room open to follow the major sporting events: rugby, football, formula 1, golf, tennis. Every fortnight, it organizes live music.
FUEGO SALSA BAR
Read moreIn front of the entrance to the Baystreet complex, it is a large outdoor bar with a Latin ambiance and décor. The clientele is a little older (30 years on average) than in other bars in Paceville, and it is also one of the best places to celebrate in Malta.
PEPPERMINT PARK
Read moreA pub at the strategic crossroads. To watch the show with techno.
CASINO ORACLE
Read moreYou must be more than 18 years old, be properly dressed and bring your identity card. Large and modern, games tables, restaurants and bar.
TOTTENHAMHOTSPURS FC SUPPORTER CLUB MALTA
Read moreIt is not easy to find it, but it must be said that in general we are not looking for it. The flag in the colours of the London football club, the great challenger of Arsenal, much appreciated by the French, allows to locate it. There's not much to say about this small neighborhood bar, otherwise it's fun to find such an establishment here. Tottenham's non-fans (probably more than supporters) are welcome to take a drink in the day or night of games while watching the clock in the club colors.
TICO TICO
Read moreIn this bar, you'll enjoy a quirky atmosphere with sofas that take you back to another era, whether inside or out on the street. Located in Valletta's old red light district, this friendly bar is frequented by Maltese hipsters (yes, they do exist) and plays on the old codes of the district by displaying erotico-porn photos from the era on its walls. Many people are up late at night, as the bar is packed. Concerts are held around the corner almost every evening in summer.
CAFE DEL MAR
Read moreIn the grounds of the National Aquarium, this bar has the good taste to play house music and attract a young, relaxed crowd for chill-out days around the infinity pool. Superb sea views and a marvellous sunset! There are plenty of deckchairs to relax on. At night, life goes on until midnight, with DJs and themed evenings on a regular basis.
CETTINA CAFE
Read moreA café and wine bar with a family tradition since 1991. It is right next to the Luciano and belongs to the same family. The decoration is typically Maltese with an impressive collection of photos and authentic objects telling the story of the city. In summer, the tables from the outside are just a few steps away from the cathedral. Good value for money and good service.
MUDDY WATERS
Read moreBetween Balluta and Spinola Bay, a bar appreciated by those who enjoy a drink in music. Frequent rock concerts.
HUGGIN’S ET BLACKBULL
Read moreBoth are facing and are very similar. They are often crowded and clients of each of the institutions are interpellent by open windows. Heavy music, beer and fat in the program. In brief of the animated'boire'plants, very popular with the Anglo-Saxons.
TRADITIONS ET ARTISANAT DE MALTE (TRADITIONS AND CRAFTS OF MALTA)
