Where to Eat in Sliema — 5 Hidden Gems Locals Love

Sliema is packed with stunning seaside views, boutique shops, and, of course — some of Malta’s tastiest food spots. Whether you’re a local or visiting for the first time, here are five hidden gems to sink your teeth into. (P.S. One of them might just involve space burgers.)

1. Gemma Joe’s Diner (Food Truck Magic)

Retro vibes. Creamy milkshakes. Space Burgers. Croffles. If you want diner-style comfort food with a Maltese twist, this place is a must. Parked in Sliema, it’s more than a food truck — it’s a time machine with extra cheese.

2. Tiffany’s Bistro

Elegant yet cozy, Tiffany’s is a great choice for breakfast, brunch, or a cheeky cocktail. Their views of the bay are just as delicious as the menu.

3. Ta’ Kris

Hidden down a side street, Ta’ Kris is where you’ll find rustic Maltese cooking done right. Think slow-braised stews, hearty portions, and real home-cooked soul.

4. Wasabi Sushi Express

Fast, fresh, and flavorful — Wasabi is your go-to for sushi lovers who want a quick fix without skimping on quality. Great for takeout or a bite on the go.

5. Giorgio’s Café

A local staple. Grab a coffee and people-watch on the promenade, or go for their famous toasties if you need a quick bite on the run.

Whether you’re after something fancy, fusion, or full-on diner comfort food, Sliema’s got your cravings covered. If you’re looking for something a little nostalgic (and a lot delicious), come say hi at Gemma Joe’s.
