I absolutely love this cafe. I used to go in all the time when i lived in Malta and was brought back by a guy that had worked there. I was first brought there by the wonderful coffee's that they have then by the food. The staff was friendly, the food was good, and the bartender was even better. When i go back to Malta, there, is the first place i am going to for a coffee and a cake. I think of it now and i want a cappuccino and a Pastizzi.
Favorite Dish: I used to just go for the Coffee and Toast for a snack while i was shopping. Have a coffee, it is worth just going and having one.

While in Valletta I never miss stopping at Cafe Ranieri for a snack, lunch or just a coffee. Lovely restaurant, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere, good prices and you can even have a look at the local newspapers of the day!!

We had a lovely day sightseeing and ended up in Valletta for the festa celebrations that evening. I had a gooey cake already from Cafe Cordina a couple of hours ago so wasn't terribly hungy. We saw this advert for pizzas and pastas on special and decided that would be enough.
I had a seafood one but it wasn't wonderful - quite salty and the thick base was overcooked and quite stodgy and the topping dry. Worse when we came to pay the bill we were charged full price and not the special advertised price - when we complained they said the advert was for last weekend. What a con. I left in disgust and put a big cross through their advert on the way out.

CAFE RANIERI on Republic Street near the main gates is a wonderful cafe full of locals enjoying Maltese dishes.
Favorite Dish: They do more substantial food than Caffe Cordina, including rabbit if you're so inclined.
And the sweets, cakes and ice cream...! Divine!

A: I think a full day in Valletta would do to explore the town quite well. You could add a second visit to Malta to go to Mdina.
