veganistisch menu - Edit
A bit hidden on the border of the Medina. Cosy terras with lots of vegan options. The Food was ok, not outstanding or creative. Small plates but fair priced. For a vegan in this town a nice place to have lunch.
Pros: vegan options, terras
Cons: not creative

Good food but nothing special - Edit
The food hear was nice- we had veggie couscous and falafel but the portions were fairly small and everything quite bland. The food was great and the staff were friendly and helpful about what was and wasn't vegan but it didn't stick out from what I have eaten elsewhere in Morrocco.
Pros: vegan knowledge , english spoken, rooftop terrace
Cons: small portions

Good clean cheap food - Edit
Nice terrace, it gets busy in the day but quiet at night. I had avocado soup which was great but not vegan. Falafels were only passable in my opinion but reasonably priced. Clean open kitchen. Seems to be European or American owned.
Pros: Plenty of choice for veggies and a mysterious vega
Cons: Apart from the meat options none

Very nice, well priced - Edit
Friendly staff, great food and quite a few vegan and vegetarian options - I recommend the avocado couscous salad and for only 40 dirham it's practically a steal. However I wouldn't recommend getting henna done here as it is much more expensive than in the square.
Pros: friendly staff, cheap
Cons: isn't totally vegetarian or vegan

bonne surprise - Edit
pour la première fois à Marrakech, nous avons trouvés ce lieu grâce à happycow. charmant endroit, un peu difficile d'accès pour nous à cause des nombreuses marches mais cela valait la peine. la petite terrasse est très agréable, le service très sympathique et la cuisine excellente. vraiment à recommander.

Excellent - Edit
We read about this place on Trip advisor and decided to check it out. Luckily! The food there is superb (truly the best fanafel I ever had) and there is a lot of choises for vegitarians that usually aren´t aviable in other maroccan restaurants. The whole atmosphere in the cafe is amazing. We also decided to get henna on our hands. The henna was all natural and appart from having it beautifully done we also recieved clear instructions on how to treat it. If you are traveling to Marrakesch I highly recomend checking it out!
Pros: Amazing food, Friendly atmosphere, Clean

LorikgordonMHAC 18 Feb 2015 - judithi, thank you so much for your generous review, and our apologies for taking so long to respond-we had a very busy week here at the cafe.
We are so pleased that you had a good experience with us, and are especially pleased that you liked the falafel. it is one of our favorite dishes too, and we know that as delicious is Moroccan food, it is in to have a bit of a change also.
We hope that we see you again!
Wishing you health, love and richness,
Lori, Rachid, Houda, Saeda, Houssni, Touria and Abdoul
