Pause Gourmande

Gueliz & Ville Nouvelle


Eating choices around Jardin Majorelle are limited, but this comfy, two-storey cafe with outside seating stands out for its youthful buzz and efficient staff. The coffee is good, and there's an extensive menu of usual suspects (pizza, bastilla, tajine, sandwiches, salads) if you need a meal.
