7 Best Restaurants in Rabat and Casablanca, Morocco

A branch of the popular French café, bakery, and restaurant group, this Paul location is in the beautiful Art Deco Villa Zevaco, with a fabulous garden. The milk shakes and desserts are decadent, and the rustic breads are beloved throughout the city; for something more substantial, the pastas, burgers, steaks, and fish are all good, too. 

Spread over several floors, this cute café serves tasty Breton-inspired buckwheat crepes, good quality coffee, and refreshing fresh juices that are just the ticket on hot days. You can spoil yourself with some divine Moroccan pastries, too.

They serve a full café menu of breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner but the real draw is the glorious array of cakes, French macarons, cookies, and chocolates that grace the display cabinets at this beautiful French patisserie in upmarket Anfa. The interior is modern and airy but there's also a terrace where you can have coffee and watch all the beautiful people.

This top-of-the-line patisserie has a spectacular array of cakes, tarts, macarons, cheesecakes, and cookies that you can take away in a box or enjoy on the spot. A pleasing array chairs and couches inside and out makes this a very pleasant spot for coffee and a treat. 

This landmark café in downtown Rabat has been around since 1997 and serves the city's best milk shakes and ice cream in a large, leafy garden. Always busy with students and businesspeople, there's Wi-Fi to check your email while you drink your coffee. A full range of main-course meals is also available.

This laid-back lounge and restaurant is a great place for coffee and a crepe, or pizza and a beer. It's right next to the beach on a peninsula that overlooks the sandy sweep of Bouznika bay. It's a simple place with plain white tables and chairs and plenty of shade and you can't get much closer to the sea.

This is a great place to stop off if you're taking a walk along the seaside promenade, La Corniche. In a prime position overlooking the sea, this branch of the ever-popular Venezia Ice serves breakfast, salads, burgers, and sandwiches, and, of course, their excellent ice cream.
