Pole Pole

Pole Pole A small, cozy place where you can slow down, kick back and feel at home. “Pole pole” is a Swahili expression meaning “slowly slowly”.

In this modern and hectic world, we are so caught up in the frenzy that we have lost sight of the simple things in life, a warm coffee, a good vinyl, the pleasure of chatting to a friend for hours, a stranger walking by and smiling, the warmth of a sincere hug…
Pole pole is a reminder to slow down, take it easy and rediscover the simple pleasures that this wonderful life has to offer. A little bit

about us...

We are Giulia and Aleksandar, we met here in Malta through a series of funny coincidences and haven't parted since. We are like the sun and the moon, day and night, fast and slow ... but we work. We share a passion for music, books and everything that warms your soul and we decided to put this all in a space where we can it can be shared with those who have helped us along the way and those we are yet to meet. In 2021 we welcomed the newest member of our family, baby Luna. She is a little ball of energy and cuteness that has turned our life upside down and made it so much more interesting. We are now a funky trio and you’ll often find us all at Pole Pole, where we like to spend our time with the wonderful people that we have been blessed to cross paths with. Sometimes we open late, sometimes we forget things, we are often tired and sometimes grumpy… but bear with us because we love every inch of this little cave and the people that gravitate around it. So far it’s been great and we look forward to meeting more people and creating new connections, because life is just so much better when shared with those you love.“Pole pole” is a Swahili expression meaning “slowly slowly”.

We invite you all to join us this Saturday under our disco ball for a very special Record Store Day.

Firstly, we’re inaugurating our second-hand records corner where you'll be able to find anything from disco & funk gems to more obscure electronic EP-s.
Alongside it, a small selection of thrifted garments - pieces we’ve been collecting and curating. And don't forget our corner with the latest products from Tanzania.

Plus we've updated our food menu with some new delicious focaccias and nibbles.

Records will be playing all day, and if you bring something special, we might put it on. 😉
No DJs, no rush: just digging, listening, and hanging out.

See you Saturday 18th from 6pm.
