5 Signature Dishes

That Define the Charles and Ron Café Experience

Flavour-forward. Fashion-inspired. These are the must-try plates that say it all.

At Charles and Ron Café, every dish tells a story. One rooted in Mediterranean soul and styled with the same bold creativity you expect from Malta’s most iconic fashion house. Our menu is playful yet refined, and always full of personality.

Whether you are visiting us in Valletta or Naxxar, these five signature dishes capture the heart of what we do. Here is what to order first.


1. Truffle Pinsa with Rocket and Parmesan

It is our most popular pinsa for a reason. Crisp yet airy, layered with truffle cream, topped with fresh rocket and shaved parmesan. This dish is all about contrast and comfort. Sophisticated, but never fussy.

Perfect for: sharing with friends or enjoying solo with a chilled glass of white wine.


2. Sexy Smashed Avocado on Sourdough

This brunch staple brings serious style to the table. Sourdough bread holds a generous layer of creamy avocado, roasted cherry tomatoes, poached eggs, and just a hint of chilli for kick.

It is the kind of dish that looks good on the plate and even better in your hand. Breakfast, but elevated.

Perfect for: a late morning treat with a flat white or iced oat latte.


3. Feta-Filled Focaccia with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Honey

Sweet. Salty. Soft. Unexpected. This warm focaccia is stuffed with creamy feta and sun-dried tomatoes, finished with a drizzle of honey for that final twist.

It is Mediterranean at its best. Simple ingredients that deliver on flavour.

Perfect for: lunchtime cravings or a casual afternoon snack that feels indulgent.


4. Crispy Duck Bao Buns

When evening rolls in, these are the stars of the table. Soft bao buns filled with crispy duck, balanced textures, and bold flavour notes. It is a dish that surprises every time and keeps guests coming back.

Perfect for: sharing over cocktails or ordering as part of a relaxed evening spread.


5. Charles’ Breakfast

Named after the man himself, this plate is a powerhouse. Sourdough, two fried eggs, sausage, bacon, avocado, halloumi, and roasted cherry tomatoes. It is bold, satisfying, and full of character. Just like the brand.

Perfect for: slow weekend mornings or fuel for a full day ahead.
