Disappointing

Looks great but we were really disappointed by our visit. It wasn't overly busy but the staff were completely over whelmed. A long wait for somebody to take our order then several things weren't available (eg orange juice) right at the beginning of service. Food when it came was good but it took more prompting for it to actually be delivered and even then there was some 15 min between my food and that of my wife being served. All in all a disappointing visit.

Pros: Tasty food, Plenty of vegetarian choice

Cons: Poor service

Interesting tea house

One of many tea houses in the Albucin area of Granada. Kasbah is mentioned in the Lonely Planet guide to Europe and so is very popular with the tourists. Seating is in small coves and the interior decor is pleasant and atmospheric. The place stocks over 100 varieties of teas and infusions.

It certainly isn't the cheapest tea house in Granada, and we didn't try the food. The infusions we got were decent, but they were expensive and we burnt ourselves on the teapot handles (which don't seem to be insulated from the hot water).

If you would like to visit a traditional tea house, there are a number of other similar places on the same street which are equally atmospheric and slightly cheaper. Cheap falafel also available easily around the area.

Pros: Atmospheric., Wide variety of teas

Cons: Expensive for area, Teapot handles will burn you

to avoid

Waste of time and money if you are looking for decent food. The place is dirty, the building itself is falling apart and there are electric cables hanging around everywhere.
The ethnic decor seems to be a mere facade.

Go if you want to hang out but not to eat

I can echo others disappointment. It has nice ambience, but food was terrible. We had Indian curry and vegetarian couscous. It was cold in the middle, maybe microwaved, over cooked veggies on top and very little sauce on the grain.
I saw nice looking desert but did not dare to order as the pricing was not cheap in this place.
I would go there for a drink (expensive though) to rest/ look out to the street but not for eating.
It is really a pity as it could do so much with the location.

Groovy Place

It's been 3 years since I was here, so the memory has faded. It's right amidst all the Arab markets and had a really nice vibe to it. It was great to get out of the heat! I had a fresh carrot-apple juice which, after living on bananas, tuns sandwiches, and Cheerios my first week in Spain, seriously hit the spot. I had a really yummy spinach dish -- I can't remember what it was exactly but it was delicious -- and my boyfriend the vegetarian lasagna. There was an adorable little boy playing peekaboo the entire time. It was a wonderful experience!
