Practical information : Take a break Tanger
Timetable
Cafés open early in the morning, some as early as 6am or 6.30am, to serve breakfast to early risers and late sleepers. They close at dusk, or sometimes later. It's all up to the owner.
Budget & Tips
You should expect to pay less than 10 DH for a mint tea or a cup of coffee in a small café in Tangiers. Prices can go up if you're in a luxury or touristy establishment.
Age restrictions
Although theoretically open to all, traditional cafés are generally frequented exclusively by male customers. If you're a woman, and a lonely one at that, you may feel uncomfortable.
What's very local
The people of Tangier have a café culture. Men go there to read the paper, play cards or dominoes and sip mint tea. Middle-class and middle-class women are more likely to visit the ice-cream parlors on the corniche with their children.
Kids
Children are welcome everywhere, as long as they are accompanied by their parents. With the exception of bars serving alcohol, where their presence would be highly inappropriate.
Smokers
A 1991 law banned smoking in public places. But as the implementing decrees were never adopted, the law remained a dead letter. As a result, each establishment does as it pleases.
Tourist traps
There are no "scams" as such in cafés or tea rooms. The only inconvenience, as everywhere else in the world, is the high prices charged in certain tourist or luxury establishments. You pay to see (and be seen).
