Tap water is safe to drink. However bottled water is also available in 6 or 12 packs which can save you some money. Some supermarkets make deliveries.

Although the island is very small, you can find groceries, mini-markets and supermarkets in every village and town and some also cater for Halal and other speciality foods and products. Larger mini-markets and supermarkets would have sections/shelves for gluten-free, lactose-free and sugar-free products.

There are also a few Halal restaurants and takeaways around the island that cater for the Muslim community in Malta and more restaurants are introducing vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free choices on their menus.
