I took my mother out for lunch and choose The Brew, it was a toss up between here and a place Mellieha, I am so glad I decided on the brew.
It's a quite Wednesday lunch so I'm apprehensive and my personal experience, as a chef, of eating out in Malta is it's normally "phoned in" but right from the start it felt like not enough could be done.
The waiter talked to us about their home brewed ales, etc and was well informed. we went for a 5 beer sampler he explained which was which and left us to your conversation. I was aware he was around but he was so non-intrusive, brilliant service from the start.
we'd picked our favorite and ordered a pint each, beautifully served with no effort.
The bar man, when questioned about their HOME BREWED gin, didn't just answer, no, he came to our table with the bottles and talked us through what they where and the process of there production (we of course then had to try).
we asked the barman to make us two Gin great gin cocktails, he did not disappoint! Two beautifully made gin fizzes, one strawberry and raspberry the other orange and peach, they where wonderful.
now, time to eat, we order of the very extensive menu (another thing that makes me nervous) one Salmon salad and a chicken parm will the food be up to the standards of the drinks?
100% YES, great portions, the chicken was cooked to perfection. Not under cooked and not dry, just right.
The salad, not just lettuce in a bowl but a beautiful fresh salad with a great, beautifully cooked salmon fillet.
After 2 more beers we went on our (happily) merry way Total for this wonderful experience a mere e84 sans tip (which I happily added as it was well deserved).
Just 10/10 guys, thanks for a great afternoon!

I've been studying in Malt for two months and it's the place I've gone the most, the service is very good, I know because I'm a room manager and they do it very well, organized and super attentive, especially Andres who always attends us with patience with my little English.
Thanks to all the team.
The great hamburgers and the super good craft beers.
and I love live music is always a hit
Gracias a todo el equipo

We went here for a work night out. The brews created on site are excellent and the food provided for the group was of good quality.

I visited with a group of friends for dinner and drinks on a Friday night. The burgers were nice and very filling, the cocktails were amazing (thanks to the bar man who suggested the ?Blue Hoppy cocktail) and there was even a live singer for entertainment. I would definitely come back here!

The beer here is pretty good. We ordered appetizers that were standard pub food - nothing special in particular. Decent place to sit down after a day of walking and enjoy a cold one.

Visited twice for dinner and drinks while in Sliema (near Valletta). They have a great beer sampler that we would recommend. Had a beef pie which was also good. Atmosphere is good, not too noisy when we were there around new year. Customer service excellent.

A truly great pub/bar/restaurant/craft Brewery! A fun place to hang out for a craft brew made on site or for a full meal. Its location along the Sliema waterfront makes it a great spot for people watching. If you are lucky enough to have Georgi serve you .you will be in for a great experience.

Service was a little slow at first, felt like I waited quite a while to have a drink order taken. That aside, the waiter made me aware of the specials and was interested in what I liked to eat. Nice touch. Food when it arrived was a much bigger portion than I expected. But hey ho you just have to give it a go. The food was really very nice. Pint of Valletta was a good choice of drink, if you’re a Brewdog fan it’s not too dissimilar to Punk IPA.

Myself and Himself got a bit blown over up at Mdina today and headed back for a little drinkiepoos in Sliema by our hotel.
Found The Brew and I’ve been blown away again but this time by their “Valletta 18” home brewed beer. At 4.8% it’s still light, floral, has hoppy high notes and retains something of the malty biscuit-ness on the finish. Delightful!
Himself says of his Porter (5.5%) “creamy texture, flavoursome with chocolate and caramel - I’d recommend asking for a non-chilled glass”.
Overall we (Himself and I) think a four star but only as we can’t justify the 5 metres of Ribs at £210. 😁

Great food and great craft beers. Their award winning Valletta beer is really superb! Just a bit on the pricy side.

I had no clue what to expect from this place other than I wanted a good beer! It was delicious! Took the Godfather Burger (Pesto, and Mozzarella di Bufalla) meat is fresh, pesto his tasty.... also took the Blue Cheese Ranch Dip and I would have drinker it. Not normally my type of food but it was delicious!

Visited Brew at the end of a day boating. Beer selection is great and service was good. Sat outside looking on to the water which was lovely. Only ordered chips but they were good and a decent portion.

Stopped at The Brew for a drink and to watch a football match then decided to stay for a bite to eat. The burgers were delicious, served with a good portion of tasty chips and chipotle dip.

Brilliant experience. Great food and outstanding staff especially Filip.
Never tipped anyone €20 but was overwhelmed by care and services provided so had to.
