Café Clock

Top choice in Chefchaouen


British-owned Café Clock knows what travellers want. Delicious camel burgers for the adventurous, refreshing salads and juices for the health-conscious and proper Italian-style cappuccinos. A spectacular rooftop view over the medina makes for a perfect place to read, and the middle floor is a cosy setting to catch nightly jam sessions and live traditional Arabic music.

Cafe Clock also runs courses in bread making (per person Dh400), cooking (Dh600) and calligraphy (Dh350).
