I visited the Kechmara for lunch, dinner and drinks and enjoyed it on each occassion. The roof terrace is a lovely place to relax after a long day touristing, with a good range of beers, wines and mixed drinks. It also offers great burgers, tapas and straightforward dishes like chiken and chips. It may not be Haute Cuisine, but you... More

We went twice in our 5 day trip to Marrakech we liked it so much. The food is very good, probably a bit short of excellent, but for steak frites etc it's spot on. Good range of Morrocan wines, pleasant service. But most of all it is just a really stylish place to hang out, particularly on the roof terrace.... More

This is the posh area of town, ugly new builds, large streets, European stores, and expats a plenty. This is where the French in particular come to have meat and frites combos in a city of Tagine. Fair enough, but this place is wanting, I had chicken and chips (roti poulet et saute potatoes etc) which was boring, dry chicken... More

I really don't have anything nice to say about this place so I will keep it short! I encourage you to read my previous reviews as testament that I am not an avid moaner!! The food is bland! We ordered duck salad (no dressing or flavour) moroccan starters (very average) and two steaks (really chewy and poor cuts) We skipped... More

Having booked a 9 day holiday in Marrakech and getting a little tired of traditional cuisine, we found Kechmara in a guide book and searched it out (not as simple as it sounds in Marrakech) but it was easy enough to find and we sat on the roof terrace and had lunch. Service was quick and the food was excellent,... More

I read the mixed reviews on this place and didn't know what to expect. It's a little tricky to find but once we got there (thanks to my fiancées greats sense of direction!) I began to think what on earth were people moaning about! This place's decor is awesome, with an amazing sixties feel and some really cool jazz music... More

When I first moved to Marrakech, Kechmarra was one of my favorites places, but over the years it has gone drastically down hill. The menu has changed numerous times, and each time the prices go up. On my last visit I had the worst dinning experience I've ever had. I ordered a burger, and my partner ordered a Croque Monsieur.... More

Stopped in for a few late night drinks and love the atmosphere, jazz and blues music playing, candles and chill staff. The drinks weren't strong at all , something of trend since I got to Morocco but the flavors were good, the lychee cocktail was my favorite. Weather permitting, the terrace looks like a good time and the food smelled... More

A hip bar/restaurant in the new town with a great Asian twist to its menu. Real fires, and 70s plastic chic furniture; huge screens with an occasional and, thankfully discreet, DJ playing some 90's tunes. The service is friendly and efficient and had no qualms in tweaking the menu for the halal. My partner had the chicken burger with fries... More
