The verdict.
Tight programme, small menu, no compromises. The lavender oat latte is a signature worth ordering. Seating for ten — get there early.
The bar runs as expected on a busy morning — the team has its routines, the machine is dialled, and the queue moves at the speed of a place that’s done this before. We sat at the counter for twenty minutes and ordered the drinks we always order at a place like this.
The menu reads as careful rather than ambitious, which is the right move for Gżira.
Two notes for the next visit: service was attentive but the room got loud after the breakfast rush, and the food side of the menu — which we didn’t fully sample today — has expanded since the last visit and probably deserves a separate trip. We’ll be back.
