Mandala Society is a healthy, vegetarian and vegan-friendly cafe-restaurant in the heart of Essaouira's medina, the group's original location founded by a Moroccan-Icelandic couple. Spread over three levels with a small roof terrace, it serves all-day brunch, Buddha bowls, acai and smoothie bowls, avocado toast, woks, quesadillas, homemade sourdough and cakes, plus specialty coffee, fresh juices and kombucha. Bright bohemian decor and a relaxed pace make it a medina favourite for a break from tagine.
