Cargo Bar & Dine

Set on the historic Vittoriosa waterfront in Birgu, CARGO brings people together over good food, drinks and memorable moments. Close to the Malta Maritime Museum and the old Casino di Venezia, it offers spacious outdoor seating with views across the yacht marina towards Senglea, its church and clock tower. Inside, a lounge and bar complement the upstairs seating and terrace, ideal for private functions. Arrive by ferry from Valletta and enjoy the waterfront setting. With its lively, welcoming atmosphere, CARGO is suited to casual catch-ups, relaxed meals and evenings that linger. Whether meeting friends, enjoying a meal or simply soaking up the atmosphere, it captures the easy-going, social spirit of modern Maltese life. The mix of indoor and outdoor spaces makes CARGO a destination from day to night, whether stopping by for a drink or sharing a meal with friends.

The varied menu includes local favourites and contemporary dishes, alongside desserts and cocktails, with a happy hour. Start with crispy deep-fried local goat’s cheese on fresh salad or local octopus in garlic, served with crusty garlic bread. For a main, try a Thai-marinated chicken poke bowl with sticky rice, edamame beans, wakame and pickled ginger, or choose a special such as sirloin steak with your preferred sauce, grilled vegetables and seasoned roast potatoes. Finish with pistachio cheesecake or chocolate mousse.
