This cozy cafe is located in the Medina (old town) Is a hidden Oasis between chaotic alleys .. In its beautiful terrace, one is able to take some time away from the busy alleys of the old town and have a nice breakfast, lunch or dinner. It is quite known since is cited in various travel-guides but it is still... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience taking the cookin class at Cafe Clock. Saoud is a great teacher who is extremely warm and personable. In fact, I can picture her as having her own show on our food tv channel. The trip to the market was interesting and informative. She was open to answering all queries about both food and Moroccan...

We ran over our time, which is nice as they gave personalized service and didn't rush you out the door. But, it made us late for our Hammam appointment. The staff was accommodating, and seeing the locals interact in the market gave us a great sense of how transactions took place in the Medina when it wasn't a tourist making... More

Our cooking class at Cafe Clock was an amazing opportunity to learn more about Moroccan cooking and culture. Souad, our chef, took us into the market to buy ingredients for our meal and then helped us prepare the fabulous food we ate. She has a joy in living and teaching that is rare. We can't wait to share our new... More

If you are expecting a Le Cordon Bleu skills and techniques class, this is not the place for you. However, if you have seen the sights of Fes and have about five hours, this is an entertaining and mildly educational experience in shopping, preparing and eating a traditional Moroccan meal. Our class consisted of four twenty-somethings, two genuine foodies, and... More

Having read the reviews on here before booking I was unsure of what to expect from Cafe Clock, but it surpassed all my expectations. As we arrived we were warmly welcomed by all the staff and given a cold drink whilst we got to know our fellow cooks. The class was led by Souad, who is an incredibly knowledgeable cook... More

The very personable Souad was our tutor, and we were a group of 5 friends with a course just for us. Unlike many cooking schools, we were given the chance to select what we would cook from quite a long list of suggestions, and she also said we'd have time to do some extras so we made a soup, a...

I attended the Cafe Clock Cooking school class and loved it. Our class leaders, Chadia and Mohammed, were very skilled and friendly. They were able to involve each participant in activities and also encouraged us to engage with each other. I left the class feeling like I had made great friends with the leaders and the other participants. We were... More

We had a group of 6 and we all booked the course together. There are pros and cons. First the good stuff. Souad was very friendly and informative. She took us shopping for the ingredients in the souk which was extremely interesting and informative. I really enjoyed this part. Souad is a "people person" and she was very approachable. Unfortunately,... More

The cooking school deserves its 5 star rating. Souad, the instructor, is a gem. The lesson was the most expensive part of my time in Fes. More about that at the end. What I loved most about this experience was that Souad led our group on a market tour in the medina - we shopped where locals shopped and bought... More
