The best bars and cafés Casablanca

A historical bar since it exists since...1914! A meeting point for intellectuals and bohemians, students and locals who want to drink alcohol in a relaxed atmosphere, a popular neighbourhood canteen on Fridays, when couscous is served free of charge, all these reasons make this café a place dear to Casaouis. Decorating side, it is dark and the benches are a little faded. La Cigale's success is therefore based on its audience, who are faithful to the event, and on the concerts regularly organised at weekends.

A beach club with two restaurants, La Terraza (Italian cuisine) and La Paillotte (Mediterranean cuisine), offering Casablancans a clubbing atmosphere all week long. Come and enjoy breakfast, international cuisine, dancing with your feet in the water or simply a cup of coffee. The elevated terrace overlooks the sea. Below, seawater pools are lined with white benches and straw huts. Elegant and very relaxing. However, unsatisfactory value for money.

In the heart of the Mer Sultan district, Vertigo is one of the trendiest places in the area for those who want to spend a pleasant evening in a 60's atmosphere. In the bar and its theatre in the basement, the establishment offers an interesting program. Improv games, concerts or even an electro evening... The bar is run by a group of dynamic and friendly young people. Tapas and snacks for the little ones. A casual and recommended address! Check out the programming on their Facebook page.

Leaning against the walls of the old medina, Rick's Café is an exact replica of the mythical café from the film Casablanca. The elegant and unostentatious atmosphere deliciously plunges fans back into the traditional oriental decor of the 1940s. In the evening, an American musician plays jazz tunes on the piano. The restaurant's à la carte menu features international cuisine and an interesting selection of fish and seafood dishes. You can also drop in for an aperitif and enjoy this enchanting and very intimate setting. Reservation required.

Since 1956, a pretty café under the arcades marking the entrance to the Habous, very touristy, but nevertheless very nice. From the terrace, you can enjoy the view of the elegant square with the Mohammedi mosque and the water fountains. You can have a hearty breakfast before venturing into the Habous alleys or eat pizzas, tajines or pastillas at mealtimes. You can also come here for an afternoon snack to sip a good mint tea, accompanied by delicious Moroccan pastries. Not to be missed!
