Perhaps no visit to Mdina is complete without a visit to Fontanella's. The location alone, high up on the North Bastion wall with a view to the spectacular countryside and sea, is worth the stop. Tables with garden umbrellas, warm stone walls, climbing plants, flowers and palm trees in the courtyard and terrace create what I think would be the perfect dining venue.
One reason not to take a guided tour in many places is, obviously, the lack of independence and time constraints. So it was with us---our tour guide was excellent, but we had only a scant few minutes to do and see what we wanted.
Fontanella's is probably one of the most well-known restaurants in Mdina and famed for its chocolate cake and specialty coffees.
Fontanella is open daily from 10am to 10pm. Summer dinners are accompanied by piano music.

This coffee shop is situated on the bastions of Mdina and one can enjoy a great view while sipping coffee/tea with a good cake.
Try and avoid this place on Sunday afternoon,this it is always packed with locals
The Choclate cake is the best thing you can try in this place.Lately they have added other cakes too, Almond and bacio are worth trying.
The view from this place is also magnificent.
Apart from this, do not expect anything special from this place, so be warned. Leave a Comment Theme: CoffeehousePrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveDirections: Near the bastions, cannot miss it

 Mdina, Malta by Myndo
It has super cakes and good Tea/Coffee with it.
Don´t forget to have a look at Mdina itself: the architecture is a mixture between arabian an mediterranean elements.

 Garnished Pie by steventilly
The Fontanella has a roof garden as well as a shady courtyard and some really cool indoor "open plan" seating areas, so you can take your pick depending on how hot you like to be at dinner!
I had a "garnished pie" - they did a variety and I had cheese & spinach. It was delicious, and a lot bigger than I expected. But that was to be the norm here - everything was bigger than expected!
Take a look at the travelogue for more Fontanella Pics.

This is wonderful coffee house located in beautiful location on the walls with a beautiful view from its upper level. I guess it’s the best place for a coffee & cake in this island :) Leave a Comment Theme: CoffeehouseComparison: about average

This is one of the smallest restaurants you’re likely to find on any of your journeys. It’s really cosy and friendly and even if you’re not in the mood for a full meal you should check it out for a drink or two.
Opening hours for restaurants and bars are always a bit of a hit-and-miss affair in Malta especially in the afternoon period, so it is good to see that this is one of the few places in the area that is open throughout the entire day and not closed for the afternoons.
