SportsBarGrill

In the heart of Qawra since 1980 — four decades and counting on 400, Tourist Street. A cosy, welcoming pub where locals and travellers watch live sport among a collection of sports memorabilia and scarves, with Cisk, Blue Label, Green Hop IPA, Double Red, Guinness, Budweiser and Strongbow on tap. The menu pairs traditional Maltese dishes with pub favourites — pastas, salads, burgers and daily specials. Add an extensive whiskey collection, and the Red Lion Pub is the place to relax, eat well and catch the game.

A cold pint in a Red Lion Pub glass, the red lion crest on the side

Got the Arsenal game on without asking twice. Cold pint, hot wings. Busy on derby night, so expect to stand.

A proper pub — scarves on every wall, a whiskey shelf that goes on longer than it needs to, and the best rabbit we had in Malta. The staff knew our names by the second night. Back next year.

Every screen on, every game on, and a table by the window at kick-off. Ask for the Cisk.
