There’s no better way to spend the day than to linger about the streets of Sliema for hours on end café hopping. One spot worth a visit is Costa Café.

Formerly known as Café Sao Paulo, Costa Café has gone through an extensive makeover. Decorated with marine interiors and scenic landscapes painted on the walls, it brings to mind a relaxing day spent by the sea. The café is situated in Sliema, overlooking the waterfront and just a few steps away from the hustle and bustle of the Sliema shops. It makes an ideal place for a coffee or lunch with friends. For the nearby business community, it provides a haven for a few minutes out of the office, a take away lunch or an informal business meeting.

The food isn’t restricted to the typical café toasts and sandwiches but opens up further to include salads, pizza, pasta and grills, all at very affordable prices, making it an all round pleaser suitable for anyone’s budget. For the colder winter months, an outdoor heater allows customers to sit in open air while the wide screen TV indoors is perfect for sports fanatics. The café is open daily for breakfast from 8am till late and is therefore a convenient venue to grab a quick bite at any hour.
