Bar/Bistro/Restaurant(??) Review: Little Things

Okay, so now how to describe this place?  I've never actually eaten a full meal here, but I've tried beer (from a can, fine) and variations of German sausage (lets say they were of "variable" quality).  It's got a prime location in the heart of St Julian's, but it's just a little... well, here's the type of sign you will find pinned outside the door:
