Favourite haunt for breakfast and brunch. Delicious food, friendly service and reasonable prices.

The Gozo branch of a successful Maltese chain, Manouche is great for breakfast and brunch, especially if you love Eggs Benedict. 

It also has some interesting specials, with a recent one consisting of croissant in the shape of a cube, filled with scrabbled eggs, sausage, bacon and baked beans - this description does not to it justice.

If you love great coffee, then Vicky Central is the spot for you as it roasts its own coffee.

The food isn't too shabby either, and you'll find dishes on its menu that you might not find elsewhere. Like jumbo croissants, or my favourite pick, shaksuka.
Victoria Central

A great location for watching the world go by, and enjoying the traffic chaos that consumes Victoria occasionally.

My go to dish here is either the Croque Monsuer or the open Smoked Salmon sandwich - which is just delicious.

Lunch

The perfect places on Gozo for lunch, from quick bites to longer, more indulgent experiences.

Don't have much time, or just fancy a quick bite? The Castle has a great range of toasted sandwiches available.

The outside might look opulent, well it is an opera house (one of two in Victoria), but the bistro inside offers a relaxed spot for a quick coffee and cake stop or lunch.

The menu is extensive, the prices reasonable and the portions generous.

A true gem, especially if you love Italian food and wine. Cool in summer, cozy in the winter, this is one of my go-to lunch places as well as being great for a glass, or two of wine.
La Sciabordita

Perfect for a pitstop when you're wandering around Victoria. In summer it has misting fans, in winter the gazebo goes up and the heaters come out.

Great selection of food, I particularly like the burgers. Warning though, the service can be slow.
The Grapes Wine Bar

Dinner

Gozo is packed with great restaurants for dinner, this list contains some favourite local haunts all the way to some fine dining choices.

A relatively new addition to this popular square, Roza offers beautiful food in a variety of settings. You can sit outside and enjoy the vibe of the square, or in one of the beautiful indoor spaces in this traditional Gozitan building. 

The pasta is divine and the Nduja and Burratta starter is a firm favourite in my friendship group.

A local institution! Set in a traditional style building, Maldonado's offers a modern twist on Maltese cuisine in a beautiful setting with warm and friendly service.

During the summer, I can't recommend the wine pairing events that it hosts highly enough.

A contender for the restaurant with the best view on Gozo, the food isn't bad either.

Offering both small and large plates, it's perfect for celebratory dinners, especially if you love fish and seafood.

It's not fancy, and it's not open during the winter, but if you want gorgeous fresh fish and to eat where the locals do, then Sammy's is the place for you.

Less than 5 minutes from the Ferry terminals, it's the perfect place to grab lunch or dinner before you head back to Malta, or off to explore Gozo.

The best Neapolitan Pizza on Gozo, quite possibly in the entirety of Malta.

Booking is advised for this popular spot. The pizzas are fresh and gorgeous, and there's a good specials menu too.
Casa Vostra Restaurant

One of only four Michelin listed restaurants on Gozo, this one is the outstanding pick. 

Great location in Mgarr Harbour, impeccable services and amazing food. On my last visit I had a fig tart that I can still taste.

Perfect place if you fancy something a little fancy but still reasonably priced.
