Manouche Craft Bakery and Bistro

Adore the savoury crepes, but all food I’ve tried so far has been delicious. Friendly staff too.

I simply love their food. Their sweets are heavenly. Definitely a unique and much needed concept in Malta.

Amidst the crazy times we are living at the moment we decided to order a Sunday roast to get a break from home cooking and the kitchen! We love going to the restaurant itself but given the circumstances, we obviously opted to get food delivered to our home. We ordered the beef chuck from the Sunday roast selection. Wow not only did the food come earlier than expected, but it was also divine. Everything was of excellent quality, the beef cut, the veg, the potatoes and even desert. Everything was packed in disposable boxes and wrapped in clingfilm, with a note from the management on how to warm up the food in the oven. Thank you for your service, you brought a smile on our faces. We will surely order again

We had dinner at Manouche on Saturday evening: Was not sure what to expect... but we were certainly not disappointed! We had the fixed price 3 course menu (I could not manage a pudding.. but can you believe they offered to box my eclair for a take away!.. I should have accepted as my friends gave me a little taste of theirs ... simply delicious!.. as were the l'escargot and the belly pork! Excellent presentation, hot plates. Great wine list - to suit all tastes and budgets. Polite young staff. Excellent value for money. The cakes looked so delicious that we went back on Sunday lunch to buy some to bring home... again we were not disappointed! The tarte au chocolat was divine! Thank you for a great evening!

I love Manouche. Whether it's for a quick brunch, a family lunch, a tea time treat, or a satisfying dinner. The food is always very well made and the desserts are consistently delicious. The salted caramel eclair is especially divine. Oh yeah, and the salted caramel ice cream in summer. Awesome stuff. And service always comes with a smile. The reason I'm not giving Manouche 5 stars is because of cleanliness. Food is top notch, but unfortunately cleanliness isn't. The floor is often neglected. I expect better.

Today was the first time I went to manouche and I was very pleased with what I saw. The place is impeccable. The food is wonderful. I took the risotto and my daughter took the linguini. Then the sweets were to die for..

Good locale and ambience but food somewhat disappointing, espescially the fondue (stringy and not warm or liquidy enough to dip in) and the duck sauce pasta (taste and consistency not much to speak of). Great bakery and coffee otherwise.

Since discovering this place a few weeks ago, we've been going there repeatedly. The bakery and cafe is fantastic, providing authentic baked products with fantastic flavours at reasonable prices; not cheap but definitely good value for money. The restaurant is also very good - tried it once so far and quite impressed, although my top vote goes for its bakery. Lovely laid back ambience and courteous staff top it up for a full 5/5 for me. There is also the convenience of the underground carpark so parking is not an issue and Manouche will give you a coupon to cover the parking.

We come to Manouche occasionally for a breakfast or lunch during weekend, once again it was good and well worth it. 2x Pumpkin Soup and a Calamari Fritti, both very well prepared. Manouche has very good bread and pastries, loads to try out.

I needed a huge Sweedish cake last minute, not the normal kind of request and given the time limit it was a big ask. However, it was no problem at all for this excellent team, when I went to pick the cake up it looked fantastic and exactly what I asked for!! The staff could not do enough for me, it was so big I needed help into the car and it looked that spectacular people were stopping and taking pictures. I was served by - Douglas, Dejan, Daniela and chef Bjorn. Every single one of them are a credit to the company. Thank you 😊

We popped in here after a great meal at Biancos a few doors along on St Georges Road although it was a small outlet so probably not the bistro place (wasn’t aware that was there or would have gone there too!)- this was more of a chiller in a very narrow building giving onto the street so would have easily walked past if it wasn’t for the guy operating catching our attention. We had the most amazing mini chocolate covered ice cream bars (like mini magnums), a macaron and a tub of salted caramel ice cream. The tub had a complete layer of salted caramel over the top of the ice cream. They were totally amazing, would go back in a heartbeat. My only suggestions would be to advertise the ice cream tubs more and to offer a smaller size also. Pop along you won’t be disappointed :)

The positive reviews both online and from my friends had been compelling me to visit this establishment. The interior is very nicely decorated: a quaint, relaxing environment with a very welcoming vibe. Ordered the chocolate mousse cronut and the salted caramel and pecan eclair. The cronut was crunchy and powdered with sugar, it had a nice crunch and donut taste to it. The mousse filling was light and delicate and complimented the dough. The eclair was absolutely gorgeous! I usually dislike eclairs, but the lovely sweet icing, caramelised pecans and salted caramel flavoured cream inside was a bite from Heaven! Wow! The prices are a bit higher than ordinary cafes, but trust me, it's worth the visit! Will be back for more desserts!

Had been there few times and on average, service is slow. The desserts are way too sweet. The parking is free, only if spent more than 10 euros, so there is no sense to go there for a cup of coffee and a small snack.

I go to Manouche from time to time, as I work in the same building. I've never been disappointed by the food - and their pastries are the best on the island, without a doubt. But if it wasn't for the top class food, I would never come back - as I've never had a good experience with their customer service. When you go there for lunch you have to force the staff to make eye contact with you, and forget about sitting outside on the terrace, that means that they will forget that you're there. To get help you have to wave at waiters, even when the restaurant is completely empty. Either the staff is incredibly unhappy with their jobs, or just untrained. It's really sad, as if the service was better I would give this place a full score.
