Set in the heart of the medina, this crosscultural café is a Fez institution. It’s the perfect place to take a sightseeing break with a tea or mocktail, or a bite from the eclectic menu of Moroccan and international fare, like the justly famous camel burger; there are vegetarian-friendly options as well. Spread over two traditional dars, the Clock is much more than a café: if you want to learn to cook Moroccan cuisine, pick up some Moroccan Arabic, try your hand at calligraphy, listen to ancient storytelling, learn to play the oud, or have a henna tattoo, just check out its cultural workshops.

Stop to sample snails or fava bean soup from a street stall, but if you’re after something more substantial to eat, head up to the rooftop of Cafe Clock, near the southern end of Tala’a Kebira. There are some interesting local dishes on the menu, including camel burger, and the cafe also hosts cooking classes that include a tour of a local market to pick out ingredients — a good way to get a handle on Moroccan cuisine.

Ms. Stevens came to Fez seven years ago, ended up writing a cookbook with Mike Richardson, the owner of the Café Clock in Fez (with another in Marrakesh), and ultimately bought and restored a riad, Dar Namir (House of the Tiger, which is named after her cat, Tiger). After explaining the menu to her students, Ms. Stevens takes them food shopping in the medina. Students can rent rooms in her riad, and she also organizes fascinating expeditions and alfresco cooking lessons at several organic farms in the countryside surrounding Fez (cooking lesson and lunch or dinner, 350 euros, or about $370, for two; 450 euros for four to six people).

Our first full day exploring the medina, we lunched at Cafe Clock, intrigued by tales of the Clock Camel Burger (95 dirhams) and their Date Milkshake (30 dirhams). We shared the milkshake, the Boy got the burger, and I rounded the meal out with a Falafel Plate (60 dirhams) – everything was tasty and filling (good-sized portions). The Cafe can be tricky to find, but it’s lovely to escape the madness of the medina for its colorful rooftop, with a great view of the tower of Medersa Bou Inania and a few friendly kittens prowling for crumbs.

By far one of the best cafes in this huge city, Café Clock boasts three floors, each with a unique charm, and various little hideaways within. Situated in a beautifully decorated, 250 year-old courtyard house, guests can sit alongside the kitchen on the ground floor while chatting to the friendly staff or, for the most popular seating place, head to the roof terrace. From here, the beautiful city views can be enjoyed, in particular of the adjacent mosque, as well as the delicious food.

Mike Richardson, the man behind Clock’s mechanics restored a 250 year old courtyard house and brought to Fes a cultural zone that many are desperate to set their watches to. This eclectic café-cum-restaurant offers delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner. Stop for tea and scrumptious homemade cakes (especially the lemon tart) on the roof terrace with its stunning view of the Bou Inania minaret, browse in the book exchange and view the art-filled walls.

Treat yourself to a lavish, Moroccan dinner in a historic 250-year-old courthouse that’s often filled with local artists and musicians. Cafe Clock serves up an innovative menu that includes camel burgers, minted vegetable quiche, fig and bleu cheese salad and pumpkin bissara. You’ll want to save room for dessert, since they are known for having some of the best mouth-watering plates like sticky date pudding, and orange and almond sephardic cake.

This modern café is perfect for a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, so if you want a place that feels like visiting at home after a long day of sightseeing, Café Clock is the place to go, enjoying a varied menu of great cuisine, low prices and fine services. Here you can enjoy burgers, chips, salads, delicious fresh juices, stunning desserts and much more, including free Wi-Fi and live bands in the evening to enjoy a cocktail.

Café Clock in Fez, Morocco, has been setting the scene for the ancient city since its opening a few years ago. It’s a three-floor restored townhouse (250 years old) with funky aspects, including gems picked up from souks that make this place unique. Moroccan hip hop followed by belly dancing grooves, free wi-fi access and the much talked about camel burgers from head chef Tariq Taza, give this culture hub all the hype it deserves.

Café Clock (7 Derb El Magana, Fez 30000) is a multi-storey eclectic space ideal for relaxing over a cup of mint tea as well as for meeting fellow travellers to share stories with. It is also popular with young locals and expats, perhaps attracted by the signature camel burger. The rest of the menu features an alluring and unfussy range of breakfasts, snacks, Moroccan dishes and desserts, providing options for any time of the day.

The original ’Clock’ (one in Marrakech and recently opened in Chefchaouen) makes this spot somewhat of an institution on the tourist beat in Fez. But the best thing about Café Clock is that it’s managed to remain authentic and fabulous, even if it’s massively popular with visitors. Mike, the owner of Café Clock, strives to offer a getaway that is both genuinely Moroccan with a hint of modern European in its fabulous menu.

It offers people of all ages and nationalities an atmosphere that extends beyond the common cafe. Cafe Clock offers an exciting menu with a mix of healthy and high-quality Moroccan fare, weekly workshops and programs attract visitors from around the world. Among the menu favorites are the camel burger and fries; for every camel burger sold, Cafe Clock contributes 10 MAD ($1 USD) to a Moroccan charity of their choice.

A Fez icon, the original Café Clock (there are also Clocks in Marrakech and Chefchouen) rambles over several floors of a restored building at the upper reaches of Taa’la Kabira, the medina’s main shopping street. The restaurant’s fusion dishes please the palates of locals and travelers alike. The Clock offers a uniquely seasoned camel burger as the house specialty, and all the small bites and salads are delicious.

Mike Richardson, former maître d' of The Wolseley and The Ivy in London, moved to Fez about seven years ago, and his restaurant, Cafe Clock, is a very pleasant place to while away a lunch hour or two. It serves Moroccan and international dishes, with the camel burger - not unlike a very rich beef burger - as its signature dish. But Cafe Clock's biggest point of difference is that so much goes on here.

This hip quirky place serving a mixture of meat and vegetarian dishes is a very popular place to eat and hang out amongst locals and tourists alike. Make sure you book a table in advance if you would like to eat here on an evening, as it gets fully booked very quickly. This place also offers cooking classes and has its own movie night screening in a room with vintage seats.

For the little ones, it’s always a treat to try something new, such as the camel burgers served at Cafe Clock, a rather touristy restaurant with a rooftop terrace offering good views. It’s located near the Bab Bou Jeloud gate and has a fairly westernised menu where you can have breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just a cup of tea. The burgers come with chips and salad.

Possibly the first result on Google for great restaurants in Fes is Clock Cafe. We came here a number of times not only to eat but to do a bread-making course. Clock has a cafe in Fes, Marrakech and Chefchuaeon but the OG location is in Fes.I’d call their menu a combination of western with a Moroccan twist, think pancakes and eggs alongside camel burgers.

Probably the best café in the city, Café Clock is known amongst the locals for its heavenly coffee and delightful sweets. The café exudes a relaxing and serene atmosphere accompanied by mystifying Gnawa music and calming melodies. It is beautifully decorated with striking hand embroidery and brilliant wall designs with awe-inspiring tilework.

With locations in Marrakech, Fes, and Chefchaouen, you will have multiple opportunities to visit this amazing restaurant while you’re in Morocco. Yeah, not sure if the Fes or Marrakech location is better since they are similiar, but my partner and I come here all the time. He loves the pancake stack and I love the Berber Omelet.

Café Clock is the type of place you settle into for a casual but simply satisfying meal. The rooftop terrace in the medina is best known for the viral camel burger (a social media darling), though its more mainstream fare tends to be more attractive. Alongside the famous camel burger are Maghrebi and Middle Eastern favorites.

If you want to get above the hustle and bustle of Fez Medina then head to Café Clock – the food is good and the roof terrace is a great place to survey the medina.

The city has endeavoured to make it easier to navigate Old Fez with colour-coded signposted itineraries that take you to monuments, palaces, gardens, artisan workshops and the city walls.

As one of the most popular restaurants in Fez, you simply must try Cafe Clock if you’re in the city. This well-loved establishment has a story that I can relate to.

Clock Café is a chain that has eateries in Chefchaouen, Fes, and Marrakech. Clock opens on time, which might not seem like vital information, but is actually a bit of an anomaly in Fes {and, generally speaking, Morocco as a whole}. Clock Café prices are reasonable and the food on the menu is varied.

Recommended in Lonely Planet, this is a bustling hipster/artsy kind of place that serves up both Moroccan and Western flavours.

We visited the cafe with the same name in Chefchaouen, and was intrigued when we ran into another Cafe Clock in Fes. It turned out to be a great place to photograph Fes medina from high above, within the medina. It even allowed me to photograph Bou Inania Madrasa, a landmark we saw often.

Other interesting constructions in Fez are the many madrasas (Koranic schools), such as Chahrij Bouinania. It’s a wall clock with a chime from 1357; it was built in 1300. It had beautiful examples of Meriní plasterwork and wood from three dynasties between the 13th and 17th centuries.

The best parts of Fès combined with Westerner’s love of attentive waiters. The Moroccan food is blended with European and Mediterranean flavors (think: falafel, camel burgers, tabouleh, vegetarian options including chickpea burgers). Don’t miss the dessert or coffee menus, either.

For lunch I headed to Cafe Clock, an eclectic restaurant created by Mike Richardson the former maître d' at The Ivy in London. It is famed for serving the best camel burgers in Fes and it didn't disappoint. Camel meat is supposed to be much healthier than other red meats.
