Fondouk Bazaar is a contemporary cafe-restaurant in the heart of the Fes medina, reached by lantern-lit stairs off Talaa Kbira. Colourful tables, leafy plants and hanging lanterns fill the room, and a rooftop terrace sits just above the bustle of the main street. The kitchen mixes Moroccan, Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavours — tapas, mezze and dishes like shakshuka and orange chicken — with fresh juices and mint tea rather than alcohol. It draws a young, arty crowd and is a relaxed break from traditional medina dining.
