Really pleased to see you're properly open now, Mike. I'm sure that the wait was worth it, and that the place is just how you want it to be. I'm back out in Fes on 11th January for 4 days, and can't wait to taste the camel burger. Wishing you and everyone a great Christmas, and happy & successful new year. Mike (London, & chez Louis when in Fes)
Cafe Clock is in the Fez Medina, at 7 Derb Magana, just off Tala'a Kebira at the Water Clock, opposite the main entrance to the Bouanania Medersa.

So disappointed. A crowd of us rolled up there for lunch on Wednesday and it was closed. Lots of other folks were turning up whilst we were waiting in vain.
Hi Mike, The place looks great. You have put so much work into it I do hope its a great success. I hope you had a great Christmas and we all wish you a very happy and prosperous New Year. All of us in the north-east are so proud of you. I hope this year we shall be able to come over and help wait tables. Lots of love Keith, Kathleen, Sophie and Robert xxxooo
Dear Kenn Sorry you weren't able to have lunch at Cafe Clock. I daresay it was closed after the new year's celebrations the night before. Usually it's closed on Fridays. Do try again!
Yikes! - 65 dh for a veggie burger??? That had better be one big burger.

Hi Mike
Just to say thanks again for the fab times we had at Cafe Clock over the Christmas holidays. You've got an amazing place there and there is no doubt it'll get better. A real hub for travellers and locals alike. Well done. Or, as you would say 'DONE!!!'
All the best, and say hi to Rose from us.

Hello Mike ! It has been a great pleasure to discover your café clock and to have diner there. Inside all is of good taste and we will come back ! Make sure you are on the right way for café clock to become a "must" of the Medina. Just take care with opening hours to make visitors sure to find an open place every evening (except on Sunday of course).See you a very next time at FES. Jean Marc and Josiane (frenc and fassis too)

I was just there for a student trip, and was more than impressed! I spent a good number of my afternoons on the terrace sipping coffee or a coca-cola. Wonderful, beautiful place! Well done!

[Image] The new Cafe Clock is rocking in Fez. While away a sunny winter's afternoon on the terrace with the stunning Bouanania minaret but metres away, sit in the cosy bar area or the buzzy courtyard by the kitchen, or lounge comfortably in the library on the first floor and check out the books.
Exciting artistic events are being planned: artist Jess Stephens plans calligraphy lessons: from two hour courses for visitors to Fez to longer courses for residents, directed by the calligraphy expert whose work graces the walls of the Cafe; henna sessions and more - watch this space for details! The menu is an eclectic mix of traditional Moroccan fare and some European offerings that make for a good mix to please everyone. While some staples such as harira (Moroccan soup), couscous, camel burgers and the Cafe's famous lemon tart are standards, there are daily specials such as fish pastilla and beef lasagne.
Tariq's family recipe for Couscous Boohaloo is really worth trying with succulent, tender lamb, couscous, raisins, apricots and caramelised onions. The camel burger is served with a homemade tomato ketchup from Taza, and the cakes and coffee are delicious. Along with the usual soft drinks are fresh orange juice (15dh) and chocolate, banana or almond milkshakes at 15dh. There are four types of coffee (8-10dh) and Moroccan mint, Earl Grey or English Breakfast tea (10-12dh). Here's today's menu:
Harira 20dh Pumpkin soup 20dh Fez Platter 40/75dh
Grilled Aubergine & Salami Sandwich 45dh Prawn Cocktail Baguette 40dh Chicken Caesar Salad 55dh Couscous Boohaloo 70dh Veggie Burger 65dh Camel Burger with Taza Ketchup 70dh Fish Pastilla 70dh Beef Lasagne with Salad 65dh
Lemon Tart 25dh Marble Cake with Chocolate Sauce 20dh Selection of Moroccan Pastries 20dh Almond Tart 25dh
