Wood and Coal

For a while, each time I would drive through Saqqajja hill I used to follow the construction of a new eatery. Then, the finishing touches, and soon enough the place opened its doors to the public. This is Wood and Coal in Attard.

While the location may seem like an unlikely place to open a restaurant, it does give the people living in the area, and further north a great opportunity to eat out and still be close to home thus avoiding traffic and finding easy parking.

We have visited Wood and Coal on a couple of occasions, once it was a weekend and very full, the other a weekday and less full. Each time the food was good, and the service friendly enough.

We wanted to go because people were raving about the pizza. I was pleasantly surprised by the toppings - they are varied, yet still retain some of the usual names, people usually look for. The first time we visited, I went for a gourmet pizza, gluten free, the Bologna with pistachio pesto and burrata. It was excellent, however a little on the heavy side and I struggled to finish it. Dining companion had the tomahawk beef, a special for the day.

The wine list isn't too varied, but we don't expect anything else here. It is a family friendly, middle of the road (literally) joint, which deals out family favourites.

We recommend Wood and Coal for those cozy evenings in, when you need a friendly meal but do not want to stress about going to the more trafficky and touristic parts of the island.
