A Syrian Kitchen on Sliema’s Seafront Street
Hassan Fatayer & Falafel Take Away is a small Syrian kitchen at 14A Tower Road in Sliema — the kind of place built around one man’s cooking. The listing describes it in the owner’s own direct way: “We make any type of pies that are in the picture — for more information please call.” The pies in question are fatayer, the filled pastries eaten across Syria and the Levant at breakfast, lunch and every hour between.
The kitchen works the fatayer range — spinach, cheese and minced-meat fillings folded into soft dough and baked — alongside the second name on the sign: falafel, served as wraps and as a full plate, plus chicken shawarma wraps. It is takeaway food in the best sense: fresh, personal and priced for everyday eating on Malta’s busiest seafront strip.
Customers have noticed. Hassan holds a 9.4 rating on Wolt — among the highest for any wrap kitchen in Malta — and a perfect 5.0 on Google from 84 reviews. For halal diners in Sliema, this Syrian counter is one of the town’s quiet gems: a Muslim-country kitchen cooking its own food, its own way.
