Spread over several floors, this cute café serves tasty Breton-inspired buckwheat crepes, good quality coffee, and refreshing fresh juices that are just the ticket on hot days. You can spoil yourself with some divine Moroccan pastries, too.
This charming café in the heart of the Cité Portugaise—opposite the cistern—is spread over several cozy rooms and breezy terraces, all decorated with colorful local crafts and fabrics. Don’t be fooled by the name, they serve traditional Moroccan dishes, such as harira soup, tagines, and couscous. There’s often live music; the owner has banned smoking, too.
Right near Sidi Bouzid Beach, the Requin Bleu serves a wide variety of fresh seafood and fish dishes (early risers can also get breakfast or a cup of coffee here). It's conveniently placed and the views are great.
For fresh fish, an easygoing atmosphere, and low prices, Tchiquito, just outside the medina walls, is the way to go. Be prepared to meet lots of people from the surrounding neighborhoods, as this seems to be everyone's favorite fish place.
