Fine, nothing special, nothing bad

This play was okay. To eat vegan you could just about scrape together a meal, as is often the way in Morocco. The Tapas was small for the price in Morocco Standards, and their market sandwich is near where near as tasty as an aubergine sandwich in the street, but it’s a pleasant place, and their food tastes fine. The staff seemed nice enough, and theirs a lot of books to look at.

Good food, drinks and games

I had a delicious pasta dish (Farfelle Arabiatta made vegan by not having cheese) but the environment of this cafe really made the meal. The drinks were great and the games available to play were really fun.

Pros: Friendly staff, Plenty of vegan options , Games available to play whilst you eat

Not for kids

Not that many vegan options. We ended up getting takeaway because this place is mostly a smoky bar and we went with young kids...our mistake maybe but good to know in advance. Maybe takeaway didn't do the food credit but we didn't get sauce for the fries, or strangely considering Morocco, any bread for the mixed tapas (mostly dips). Would be a good place to nibble dips with drinks (and smoke if you're a smoker) without kids :).

Nice Cafe

Nice little cafe, food and coffee was decent. Friendly staff. We were there weekday lunchtime and it was quiet, but the whole place smells highly of smoking.

Pros: Friendly staff, good food, well priced

Cons: Smells of cigarettes

Would be five stars if it was fully vegetarian!

Friendly staff and a great menu, with lots of vegetarian choices and plenty that can be made vegan (just ask for no egg / cheese etc). There were also plenty of vegan 'tapas' items on the menu. We ordered two different salads - which were both fresh and tasty - and some delicious hummus and bread. Staff were friendly and spoke excellent English (offered us the WiFi password without us needing to ask, etc).

Pros: Reasonably priced, Good selection of vegetarian food, Friendly staff

Cons: Could benefit from more vegan options

Home style food and friendly service

Really nice food and friendly service. One of the nicest places in Morocco I’ve been to eat being a vegetarian. Will definitely visit again during my stay.

Tasty

I had some tapas here and while they were good they were also a bit expansive for the amount of food.

deserves 5 stars

Really lovely salad for lunch today. I chose the Salad Riche which has beetroot , chickpeas, and walnuts. As well as lettuce, carrot, caramelised onions and goats cheese. This salad is not only delicious but also nutritionally complete! So hard to find in so many salads. For the vegan version without the cheese it would still be nutritionally complete.
I also had the caviar d'aubergine which was really good too.
And a final plus point they serve alcohol at reasonable prices and you can hang out all day long if you want to!

Pros: relaxed space and staff , delicious food at reasonable prices, alcohol is served

Cons: none

favourite place

This was our favourite place in marrakech, such a relaxed atmosphere, lovely staff and a good selection of veggie food and easily adaptable to be made vegan. Good price and such a homely place, I could quite happily stay here all day. They also give you free salty popcorn at your table which is a nice touch.

Pros: atmosphere is very comfortable

Lovely tapas

Had lunch here. A more trendy vibe with stylish presentation.
The food is clearly labelled and was some of the best we had in Marrakech. Portions could have been a little larger for the price.

Pros: Very tasty tapas, Nice vibe, Friendly staff
