Live Life

Live Life is a home and garden retailer for people who love to cook, and above all to cook outdoors. Its shop is on St Paul Street in Naxxar, a historic village in the middle of the island, close to Mosta and within easy reach of the walled city described in our Mdina guide and of the capital. The range runs from charcoal grills and pellet smokers to everyday pans, knives and countertop appliances.

Malta's long, dry summers make outdoor cooking a way of life, and our Malta weather guide shows just how many months of the year a terrace barbecue is realistic. Anyone fitting out a terrace or a kitchen can browse the range, and if you are planning a move, our guide to relocating to Malta from the UK covers the practical side.

Barbecues, smokers and pizza ovens

The outdoor cooking range is the heart of the shop. Brands on the site include Traeger, GMG, Monolith, Campchef, Feuerhand, Fornetto, ProQ and Yakiniku, covering gas barbecues, wood pellet grills with WiFi control, kamado grills, hybrid and infrared barbecues, and hot and cold smokers. There are also wood-fired and gas pizza ovens, fire pits, lanterns and a smokeless fire pit.

Fuel and fire-lighting supplies are sold alongside: natural charcoal, binchotan, 100% pure wood pellets, aromatic barbecue firewood, fire starters, fire blankets and extinguishers. Wireless meat thermometers and Grillteam accessories such as marinade spray bottles and aluminium foil rolls help with the finer points. Cooking outdoors is a Maltese habit at weekends and on public holidays, from rocky coves to village squares, so see our best beaches in Malta and Golden Bay guide for places to put the equipment to use.

Food, spices and dry ageing

Live Life also sells what goes on the grill. Its food range includes fresh cuts of meat, natural shellfish, spices, rubs, sauces and marinades. Dry Ager cabinets with SmartAging technology and the Brunetti dry ager line are available for anyone who wants to mature meat at home, and there is a selection of premium coffee systems and wine coolers for the table.

If you are visiting rather than living here, the shop is a short drive from some of the island's best-known sights, and our things to do in Malta page is a good place to plan the rest of your day.

Cookware, appliances and garden

Indoors, the shop stocks cookware and kitchen tools: cast iron, Dutch ovens, woks, grill pans, skillets, Sabatier knives, Tramontina pieces, eco-friendly cookware, chopping boards, crockery, glassware and cutlery. Berlinger Haus ranges appear in colour collections such as Anthracite, Sahara, Leonardo, Taupe, Matte Black and Eternal. Small appliances and personal care items, from air fryers to hair dryers, complete the list.

For the garden, Live Life offers outdoor furniture, cushions, parasols, infrared patio heaters, lamps and wicks, premium artificial grass and artificial vertical gardens. Trademark Living, a Danish brand of rustic and recycled interior pieces, is also on the site. For wider background on the island, see about Malta and our Valletta guide.

Visiting and getting in touch

The shop is open Monday to Friday 10:00am to 7:00pm and on Saturdays 10:00am to 5:00pm, and it is closed on Sundays. The site includes a delivery schedule and a returns and refunds policy, plus a Flexi Pay scheme for spreading payments. If you are taking equipment on a day out to the islands, our Gozo guide and Blue Lagoon guide show where boats and ferries run, and the Malta holidays overview helps with planning a longer stay.
