Delicious latte machiato and even better cakes. We tried tiramisu which was fluffy snd light, and a sweet creamy velvet cake. Pleasant service also. There's a toilet for guest inside, useful after long walks

What a lovely coffee shop. The coffee is superb, and as for the cheesecake.... wow !!! Service was friendly, fast, and very efficient. Prices are considerably less than you would expext elsewhere. Would recommend to anyone

Just popped into the Bar One Cafe in M’dina for two coffees (one Irish coffee and one Americano) and we were delighted to have stumbled upon such a welcoming place. Sandro and the team were fantastic. He had such chat out of him in that he could be Irish himself. As it turns out, he has relatives in Cork in Ireland whom he has visited on a number of occasions and such was his ‘gift of the gab’, that while there, I think he took a bite out of the Blarney Stone! A great cafe to experience, do stop by when you are visiting M’dina. Peter

Open around one year now (27/03/2020) and it fits in very well within its location. Prices are just a little higher but you get so much more, besides, it will be a once in a Lifetime visit for most people. You won't be disappointed, it's magical. Good luck to the management they're doing a great job. Go through main drawbridge entrance to Medina. Turn first left then immediate right. It's now within view, about 45 seconds walk. It's called Bar One

I recently visited BarOne in Mdina and was thoroughly impressed with the warm welcome I received. The staff, led by Sandro provided excellent service. Good prices and delicious food especially the coffee. Welcoming atmosphere in the heart of Mdina will return.
